What could this be?

Foul and surface water, private drains and public sewers, land drains and soakaways, filter drains and any other ways of getting rid of water.

Hi All,

Hi All,

This is my first time posting on this forum.

I am looking to buy a house and had the Homebuyer's report back with various points on it. One of them says 'leakage is evident from the base of the soil stack and clearly repairs are required'. It has been noted as a 'level 3'.

We have gone back to the property to have a look and there looks to be some sort of growth in behind the base of the soil stack between the stack and the house. It is a bark sort of texture?

Does anyone have any advice for me?

Thank you in advance,
Top

Sounds like a build up of shite. Photo's please. You will most probably need to change the down pipe. Is it plastic, or cast?
