When should the drainage be renewed?

  • Lead drum trap under the floor
  • Smells that return after cleaning
  • Several fixtures blocking at once

What the drainage renewal includes

  • Planning the layout

    We mark fixtures, pipe runs and falls before opening the floor.

  • Drum trap removed

    We take out the lead drum trap and old pipes from under the floor.

  • New PVC system

    Branch pipes sized and laid to the fall required by CTE DB HS 5.

  • A trap for every fixture

    Basin, shower, bidet and sink each with its own odour seal.

  • Stack or manhole connection

    A watertight joint to the building's soil stack or the house's manhole.

  • Water test

    We run water through every fixture and check the joints before closing up.

Drainage in Vilanova i la Geltrú: what lies under the floor

Near the sea, in areas such as Centre Vila and La Geltrú, damp and salt corrode lead or cast-iron sections, especially exposed ones in courtyards and on terraces. We replace them with PVC and leave access fittings where they can be opened without breaking anything.

Before opening the floor, in homes in areas such as Barri de Mar and Ribes Roges we mark where each fixture goes and measure the distance to the stack. From that we work out falls and diameters: the WC on its larger pipe, and basin, bidet and shower into a shared branch.

With over 20 years of experience we can tell you on the visit which layout the fall allows, and set it out in a written quote. We also go out to nearby areas such as Sant Pere de Ribes, Cubelles and Canyelles.

Frequently asked questions

01

Internal drainage renewal in Vilanova i la Geltrú: which areas do you cover?

We do this work in Vilanova i la Geltrú, in areas such as Centre Vila, La Geltrú, Barri de Mar, Ribes Roges, Sant Joan, L'Aiguacuit, La Collada and Sis Camins, and also nearby: Sant Pere de Ribes, Cubelles and Canyelles. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.

02

What is a drum trap and why remove it?

It is a box, usually made of lead, under the bathroom floor that collects several waste pipes. It blocks and ends up giving off smells; today it is replaced by a trap on each fixture.

03

Can I move the toilet or shower?

Yes, as long as there is enough fall to the soil stack. On the visit we measure the route and tell you which layout will work.

04

How is this different from replacing drains?

Replacing a drain covers one specific fixture. Renewing the drainage replaces the whole internal system, from every fixture to the stack or manhole.
