Help My neigbour has broken a sewer drain in my garden?

Yahoo! Answers: Maintenance & Repairs — Mon, 23 Feb 2009 10:13:43 +0000

Several months age he had a water leak and came round as it was easier to fix it on our side. He owns a drainage company so we though,t Ok he knows what he is doing so we said 'OK do what you need to do as long as its all made good afterwards' There was so much water leaking that he broke the main drainage pipe for the water to flow away while he fixed the leak. He fixed the leak and now we are left with a great big hole outside the house and to top it all there is now human waste stuck in the drain. We have had to cover the hole up with a lard piece of wood because its disgusting. I have complained to him several times and he keeps saying he is busy but he will get one of his guys to do it next week. Next week never seems to come. I am now getting worried as the weather starts to get warmer its going to cause a health problem. Is there anything I can do legally or get the authorities involved. We are in the UK Many thanks Sorry meant to read Large piece of wood not lard tahnks

Way to save on the electric bill?

Yahoo! Answers: Maintenance & Repairs — Fri, 06 Feb 2009 19:33:38 +0000

We have a great deal here in the condo we live in. We would either pay $900 for rent/water/sewer/trash/cable AND electric OR $800 for the rent etc BUT pay the electric bill separate. Of course we chose the $900. So anytime the electric bill is more than $100 the owner would have to pay the rest. But now we're moving and will have to pay the electric bill ourselves. Besides not running the heat all winter long or AC all summer long what are other ways to save on the electric bill? We live in FL but it's been chilly lately so would buying a plug in heater save? What about not letting the fans spin all day in the summer? Thanks in advance! What about using a night-light at night for my son's room?

Is a good decision to connect water pipe from ventilation shaft to sewerage?

Yahoo! Answers: Maintenance & Repairs — Sat, 31 Jan 2009 07:34:24 +0000

The reason for this action was condensing in ventilation shaft that ends in the bathroom. I think is not correct, because in this way the ventilation will suck dirty air from the sewage. Am I right? Please give me arguments to convince my husband that it not good decision for removing condense. Thank you.

How to unclog kitchen drain that I have already done most of the obvious solutions?

Yahoo! Answers: Maintenance & Repairs — Thu, 22 Jan 2009 04:53:29 +0000

I live in an old house, from the 1900s, and I live on the second floor. I have not been living here for a year yet, but already have come across many problems. The big one right now is that I have a kitchen sink that is clogged. I have already tried all the typical solutions, Tried a plunger for 20 minutes, Used a drain snake, a full 25 feet was extended into the line, and still, the drain is somehow clogged. I used drano, a whole container of it, and let it sit overnight. Nothing. I cant think of anything else that would work. I mean, what could it possibly be that would be so far down that honestly, the drain should be connected to the main line by 25 feet. Nothing big gets in the drain either, only the occasional vegetable chunk or something like that. And it got clogged up one day, seemingly out of thin air. It was cold that day, and has been for the last several days, but I cant figure out how it would continue to be frozen after this length of time. Any new suggestions?

How do I estimate what a sewer lift pump costs to run monthly?

Yahoo! Answers: Maintenance & Repairs — Tue, 20 Jan 2009 01:02:23 +0000

I am leasing a commercial space. The landlord is responsible per the lease for all sewer-related expenses; however, I found out today when an electrician came out for an unrelated job that I have been paying the electricity to run the sewer lift station pump for the entire building! I thought I had something wrong because my electric bills have been 2-3 times what they were at my old lease space (500 sq feet smaller and NOT insulated like this space). I am going to approach the landlord with the situation and demand repayment and that they immediately take the lift station pump off of my meter and install a separate meter and power source to run the lift station. How do I determine what the average cost for running this lift station is on a daily basis? I've been paying for it for 6 months. I need specifics. My electrical use changes monthly, depending on the need for heat and cooling. That's not the answer I'm looking for.

Where I can bay (programmable) smart water meter?

Yahoo! Answers: Maintenance & Repairs — Sat, 10 Jan 2009 19:56:01 +0000

Is that possible to program a water meter for saving water. I mean is there any water-meter with such function, for example after 1000L it closes water, everyday, (it stops letting water pass through it).? Water meter which can automatic cut off water will be very useful for me. -- The system in which i want to use such water meter is 1000 liters water tank(that is enough) and pipes that goes out from tank to system.. everyday at night water fills in that tank.I have to let the water meter open and everyday it let water to pass trough it, 8000-9000 liters of water everyday.. but I need just 1000 liters... so everyday 8000 liters of water just fills in sewerage.

Well to add some details, our toilet is clogged,water is coming out of our shower drain(not clean water may I add.) And water is seeping from underneath the walls.

Hrm, Im not too sure. It might be a city, I'm not too sure though. We have a sump pump and we have that "snake" machine so, we might have to use that.

How to find the main sewer cleanout? ?

Yahoo! Answers: Maintenance & Repairs — Tue, 06 Jan 2009 21:16:34 +0000

I have a slab foundation with a sing-level house built in 1962. I am having plumbing issues and want to rent an electric auger to clean out my drains. Two months ago I had a plumber come out and jet the lines, but the problem came back last week with the same symptoms. When I shower for a long time the toilet gurgles and eventually the shower backs up. When we wash clothes the toilet gurgles and the shower and tub back up. The bathrooms and laundry room are on opposite sides of the house. The plumber couldn't find the cleanout and didn't look real long either. They ended up going through the roof vent above where the bathrooms are located. I'd rather go through the cleanout on the ground if I could find it. Should the cleanout be located near specific area of the house? i.e. the bathrooms or laundry room?

What exactly is the stink from a clogged drain?

Yahoo! Answers: Maintenance & Repairs — Sun, 04 Jan 2009 08:12:28 +0000

Our double vanity bathroom sinks have been clogged for a few months. The repair may be pretty extensive, as our pipes are behind the wall and we have to cut a huge hole in the wall. So, we have been using other sinks in the house instead. Occasionally, I rinse my hands really quick in the clogged sink without any problem. If I accidentally run water too long, the water backs up and bubbles up through the other vanity sink (....which is why we don't use it). This will put off a horrid smell...usually like sewer/rotten eggs, and now tonight a putrid garlic smell. The plumber comes monday---- but...what exactly IS that SMELL? I know it's the funk down in there...but is it toxic? It's weird how it smells different each time. Gross, huh. Just curious. Thanks!

Is there any plumber here that can answer my question about pedestal sump pump sizes?

Yahoo! Answers: Maintenance & Repairs — Sun, 04 Jan 2009 05:56:30 +0000

My old pedestal sump motor finally burned out so I went to Lowes today and bought a new pedestal sump on sale for 77 bucks. I have no idea about sump pumps, and my neighbor says he'll install a sump for us since hes a plumber. I believe that my old pedestal sump is taller than the one I bought today. The new sump I bought today is a little bit shorter than my old one. I didnt look at my old one because the sump basin is filled up to the top with dirty muddy water. My question is, can I drain my sump basin and then fill it up with gravel/rocks to build it up for this shorter pump so it will sit up higher? I know that I will get the big rocks because pebbles will get inside the pump. The basin looks pretty deep which is why my old pedestal sump is longer/taller. I saw the tall pedestal pumps BUT they were sold out all over! I thought about getting a submersible sump. BUT I figured that I might as well put a pedestal down there since thats whats already down there. The old sump is about 30 years old and it hasnt worked in 5 years. Should I have my neighbor replace the pipe that hooked up to my old sump? The pipe hooks up to the sewer! I think the pipe is galvanized or steel and it runs over to a drain thats hooked up to the kitchen sink and the washer is hooked up at. I will probably have to replace the pipe anyways if I build the basin up with gravel because the pipe would be too long then!
