We have an extension that was built over the original outside kitchen drain of the house over 30 years ago. The drain has been covered over. House is Edwardian - we have been there for less than a year. Drain is in line with soil pipe (further 'downstream'), everything drains into main sewer.
The sink, dishwasher and washing machine have been discharging into waste pipes that feed into the drain under the floor.
We are moving the sink and dishwasher position to discharge into the drain from the other side. Builder has dug a trench for this. It's smelly as it's been opened up. Is there anything we should be doing in terms of how it is covered over now?
I haven't seen or smelled it yet (sounds rank) - I have that delight awaiting me tonight.
