Soil stack leaking

[Daviesmith]

Hi we have just had some torrential driving rain , it was almost coming horizontally. I decided to check in the loft and noticed that water was running down the outside of the soil stack . I checked a few hours later when the rain was regular and the pipe was dry .

Would this be a big job ?

Doubtful , but what is access like ? And roof covering

Can you post a picture of the pipe outside where it penetrates the roof

 

[Daviesmith]

You can get to it from a ladder easily, it's at the end of the roof . The roof is tiled with clay tiles and the soil stack looks like it has a lead surrounding.

Probably loose or missi g collar

I've called a roofer . It looks a bit high + I've no idea what I'm doing

Is this what the roofer said?

Just the collar, 2 minute job.

 

[Daviesmith]

What's the collar ? Is it a standard size ?

The black gasket above the lead slate, push it down so it goes over the top of the lead.

Had a roofer around and he pushed the rubber bit back on like you all said . I checked in the loft last time it was heavily raining and I still have a slight drip running down the outside of the soil pipe.
Do I need a new rubber bit ? Or should I attack it with silicone?

110mm collar from screwfix for a couple of quid. The existing collar has probably perished.

This type of thing ? https://www.screwfix.com/p/floplast-solvent-weld-end-ventilation-collar-grey-110mm/17772

 

[Alastairreid]

That would do.
