Clubhouse main waste line replacement

Cast-iron pipe failure: Are plumbing claims draining you? (Part 2)

After many years of dealing the cast iron waste line for the clubhouse, we are getting it repaired/replaced on Saturday, June 28.  We will have a porta john on site for those using the clubhouse and pool that day.  I know since I took the pool over about 8 years ago, we have dealt with this far too many times and paid for a plumber to snake it too many times too.  This year alone, I have had to snake it 5 times with one of my sons.

You can see from the pic above how “flushable wipes” and feminine hygiene products can easily get caught on a corroded pipe.  This is why I have been asking for your help for several years now.

A combination of rust and roots is what we believe to be the problem, which is expected on such old pipes.  With the new PVC waste line going in, we should not have any issues from our clean out to the City side for many years.

Even with a new pipe consider that under the slab for the clubhouse is cast iron piping and that is not getting replaced.  Continue to help save our pipes.

If you are unable to help volunteer throughout the year, consider donating to the main waste line replacement project — contact Donnie at [email protected] or 757-768-9326 directly.
