Hi, Might need to do this, new route compared to existing service pipe. Will I manage to core drill 100mm from trench into house to put ducting in, or....? Don't really want to argue with water board over surface entry. Have always had building contractors to do this before. TIA
Don't see why not! it always amazes me though how deep the dig is with these jobs. and the spoil never goes back in the hole
Cheers - yes a deep dig Just thought that if I go through the floor I'll end up drilling through the DPM. Is there a standard/easy way to repair this? Otherwise could use an Insuduct...
Just as a thought,obviously sleeve pipe.Foam around under screed etc,then apply liquid DPM,synthaprufe or the like,again just as a thought.Good Luck
The depth should be 750mm for frost protection but having said that we don"t get the bad winters now.If you are having water board inspect the trench which they do here in east midlands stick to the correct depth.If the foundations are blue or engineering bricks use a small jack hammer,mentioned bricks will knack your core bit.You can get proper 75mm blue flexible sleeving for water pipe from builders merchant.
