My house kitchen drain galvanized pipe is leaking where it enters the concrete basement floor.
It then runs in the floor about 12' to the main stack.
The plumber recommends two options:
1) cut into the main stack (cast iron I believe) and reroute the kitchen drain. $900
2) break up up to 5' of concrete to repair the existing drain. He's thinking the leak and blockage are at a 90 beneath the leak. $1500 if they have to break up no more than 5' of concrete.
Any advise or guidance on the better plan would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Kevin
