Digging up my garden today, ripping concrete to get read to lay a patio and i’ve put a 10 pence sized hole into by victorian pipe which takes waste water from kitchen and bath. Might have been there before i started, but seems unliekly. It doesn’t take the toilet waste or the upstairs waste..
…now I know this kind of thing can cause subsidance etc, but the hole is 2 metres from the manhole and using a torch i can see the pipe is in good shape the rest of the distance.
Am I mad just to flaunch over it and forget about it? With all the taps running al full whack the pipe is only about half full, and using a paint brush i got rid of the stones which had fallen through the hole.
