Internal soil pipe leaking at join

[fango7]

Hi all ,

Have a slight weeping leak on the underside of where soil pipe meets the tee join (seems like a little gap), at bottom ,after toilet upstairs is flushed ,highlighted area is in yellow leaking.

Hard to remove it seems tight , can I just get away with putting some ct1, fernox lsx or polypipe gap filling cement around gap at bottom of the join around where tee meets soil pipe as a permanent fix?

And if so what one would be best to use ?

Thanks.in advance for any help

let it dry out then warm with hair dryer warm not hot, wait 1o mins then give the joint a wipe with sovent weld.

Hi cjg, thanks for response , would the solvent weld make it watertight? I thought that was just for gluing the pipes together ?


Would I be better with something like LSX joint compound or CT1,pipe gap filler cement?


Thank you

Poly pipe gap-filling cement will be great.
