I have a kitchen extension built over an inspection chamber. Looking into this chamber, there is a junction where two pipes (from kitchen and upstairs bathroom) drain into a bigger pipe that then carries on outside of the extension (no neighbouring houses are using the bigger pipe - just me). If I create a new inspection chamber just outside of the extension (i.e accessing the bigger pipe) in order to create a new rodding point for the junction upstream, is this sufficient to cover any blocked drain issues? In other words, is it possible to rod a junction point (i.e. with branch pipes) from a point further down? How would you control which pipe you rod (kitchen or bathroom) if you were accessing the junction remotely? Just trying to see whether this is a viable solution as I want to tile over the extension floor without leaving the old inspection chamber visible (it is currently raised and sealed to scree level). Thank you.
