    New Foundation over existing sewer

    The pipe will be 6” and if you wanted to replace it with plastic so you don’t have that collar under your foundation, you will need a short length of pipe and 2 x AC6000 bandseals.

    Water supply pipe diameter and reducer

    All the ones I see are 25mm on the house side connected to the supply by which ever fitting is required. They should have a 25-32 for connecting to your new pipe.

    Anything better than the blue soundboards?

    I saw they do a really thin system: https://www.soundstop.co.uk/soundproofing/soundproofing-walls/Tecsound-wall-solution6.php But you have to screw the plasterboards through the rubber to fix them. I think maybe stick with the blue boards fixed with foam and put a load of picture frames up...

    Reducing sound through party wall, which insulation?

    Is there a better product than the blue boards? I put them in the alcoves at my house and they don’t seem to do much.

    Cement around Drain corroded

    No. Do you really think you can make a mould and pour concrete into it, easier than you could pull out the hopper and push a new one in?

    Just form it by hand like Patrick Swayze in Ghost.

    Reducing sound through party wall, which insulation?

    She wants a bare wall finished something like this: I think that would be MDF so I’m not sure if I should put the blue plasterboard up first or straight on with mdf? This is where i’m at as of now: I’ll use the AC50 you recommend around the timber and add some more slab in the ceiling...

    Cement around Drain corroded

    You don’t, you have to go a couple of inches to the joint between the hopper and the gully trap.

    Cement around Drain corroded

    It’s probably got a bit of mortar around it but seeing as it’s broken it should pull out easy.
