My son has a sink that is backing up. At the same time the sink backs up, he noticed water on the floor of the adjoining bedroom. When he looked into the wall separating the bathroom and the bedroom where the water came from, it was obvious that a cast iron vent pipe that goes through the roof was cracked at a transition from 3 inch PVC to cast iron for several feet. (see photos) Our thinking is to remove the 3 inch rubber transition clamp, pull the cast iron pipe up and through the roof, snake out the vent line and under floor line, and replace the entire cast iron section with PVC.
Any comments on our plan? Is there something else we should consider?
