Plumbing Issues 6/6/112

Met with PJM, Able Plumbing, JB Clancy, Peter Stames


Please see previous post "Cast Iron Plumbing Life Expectancy"

Looked at cracked 2" drain pipe in ceiling of kitchen.  Able suggested that his may be the case with all  the 2" drains in the house.  These drains connect the plumbing fixtures to the 4" waste lines.

There are also many areas where PVC clean-outs have been cut in to the waste lines.  This suggests that there have been issues in those pipes that needed to be snaked and/or repaired in the past.

Change Order #6 - To confirm if there are issues or not we have decided to hire a drain company to run a camera down the plumbing areas of concern to determine if the drain plumbing is in jeopardy and needs to be repaired or replaced.  This work will also determine locations of septic lines leaving the guest house and their condition.
