Hello,
Our plumber recently replaced a leaking toilet waste pipe for us. Lucky guy. He fitted a new pipe going from the toilet, straight through the wall and into a 90 degree push fit bend outside. The pipe from the toilet into the wall is at 90 degrees, but the external bend is fitted at an angle to this, so not quite 90 degrees. My question is whether this wonky connection is ok? Aesthetically, I’m not too bothered but as it’s a waste pipe, I’m a little concerned the connection’s seal might be compromised. Should I be?
Hopefully my pictures will make more sense than I do. You can see the lip of the bend is behind the bricks on the right, but poking out from the bricks on the left.
Many thanks in advance.
Andy
