Hello. I have lived in this townhouse since 2001. It was only in 2016 did the owner finally sell it to me after I paid so many years in rent. My mortgage broker did try and talk me out of buying becuuse he said it needed too much work, I started about 2 years ago to try and get to work on the kitchen such as ripping out everything and replacing everything. So two years ago, I ripped out pantry and sink side cabinets and a few months ago ripped out sink countertop, cabiinets and the whole 9 yards. My kitchen is a gallly style and only 10 ft x 12 ft. Any how I am washing dishes with a water hose on the driveway. The more I tear out, the more I want to tear out.. This leads me to the first question that I have. I aleady replaced the sink stop valves and checked the main drain for issues. Started working on the sheetrock and then decided to take out the soffetts above the kitchen cabinets. I have a wet bar in the other room and it is taking up space that i could expand the kitchen into. I never have used the wet bar and I have the demo started. However, the wet bar has its own vent pipe that goes up in the ceilling beyond the sheetrock and up to the second floor attic roof . To make a long story short, OOPS sorry about that. Can I cap off that drain below the concrete and the water connections, and then tie the vent pipe into another vent pipe in the second floor attic to prevent water from draining into the kitchen??
