Relocating a Main Stack: A Pierce LLC Success Story
At Pierce LLC, we recently took on a challenging project that required us to relocate a main 4-inch stack in a customer’s basement. The customer wanted to open up the area for a new finished space, and our team was ready to make it happen.
Locating and Planning
The first step was to locate the existing pipes and lay out where we needed to cut the concrete. This involved careful planning and precise measurements to ensure that we could tie into the existing main drain under the slab without any issues.
Cutting and Digging
With the plan in place, we used a partner saw to make the necessary cuts in the concrete. This was a labor-intensive process, but our team worked efficiently to get it done. Once the cuts were made, we dug the trench to expose the existing pipes and create a path for the new plumbing.
Tying into the Main Drain
Next, we tied into the existing main drain under the slab. This required careful alignment and secure connections to ensure that the new plumbing would function properly. Our team took great care to make sure everything was done to code and would pass inspection.
Roughing in the New Bathroom Group
With the main drain connection complete, we moved on to roughing in a completely new bathroom group. This included installing new pipes for the toilet, sink, and tub, all carefully aligned and secured. Our team worked diligently to ensure that everything was properly positioned and ready for the next phase.
Testing and Finishing
After the rough-in was complete, we tested the new system to make sure everything was functioning correctly. This involved running water through the pipes and checking for any leaks or issues. Once we were satisfied that everything was in perfect working order, we poured new concrete to seal up the trench and finish the job.
At Pierce LLC, we take pride in our ability to handle complex plumbing projects with professionalism and expertise. This project was a great example of our team’s dedication to quality and customer satisfaction. If you have a challenging plumbing project, trust Pierce LLC to deliver exceptional results.
