I guess I'll have to remove the hopper in that case. Was really hoping to avoid digging out and changing pipes and was hoping for a way to convert the bottom of the aco into the hopper but hey ho. Probably for the best to give me more room for the DPC anyway.

I've tried to dig around the hopper but I'm struggling to get it out to be honest. The hopper is sitting lower than I want my storm drains to be placed. Is there any adapter I could by which would divert the water from the bottom of the storm drain into the hopper?

Yes and yes. So the hopper is connected to a 110mm pipe that connects into an inspection chamber elsewhere in my garden. I have taps further along the wall and I'm looking to add paving so wanted to fit storm drains along the wall and drain through hopper. But hopper placement is not ideal

I want to run a storm drain across this wall. However a hopper has been put in the way. How can I work around it or replace it?

Hi, I want to complete a storm drain in my back garden, however there is a hopper with a single connection there which is already connected to a 110mm pipe. I wanted to replace or then push it lower so I can use a bottom outlet adapted to 110mm fitting. What is my best option? Please advise, I am new to this and unfortunately I cannot afford to pay another builder to complete this work at the moment. I've attached some pictures. Thanks in advance

Thanks for the help. I hope this works. Because I really didn't want to have to change any pipe work

No, but I've bought some pea grav and concrete to stabilise it. I think once I get the riser cut right I can pea gravel and concrete the base and be done with it.

I wasn't sure whether the riser would sit properly if I did this. I think this might be my best bet.. because I really don't wanna mess this up 😅

Yes. Storm drain. Thank you. And I will be using the bottle gully that is connected to a seperate chamber for that

Okay so a few things. This is a secondary inspection chamber and only connects to a toilet on the GF of my house. I've been living here for over a year and had no issues with blockages at all. BC have been by and all clear. The main issue I'm tackling is levelling the Chamber base as I wanna get the area tiled up. Upon a little more digging I've found a 30° connection. But once again the inlet is higher than outlet. Can I get an adjustable connection which will allow both a turn and a drop in height?

Hi guys, Had a lot of work done in my house by a contractor who I thought I could trust. Now I'm fixing all of his mistakes one step at a time and need all the advice I can get. I am currently trying to fix an inspection chamber in the garden which has one Inlet from a toilet on the ground floor. It has been placed completely bent and it literally leaning against my shed (see attached pic), I want to place storm drains along this area so need to Straighten the Inspection chamber Base. I've dug down and noticed that the inlet pipe is higher than the outlet pipe, therefore causing the chamber base to be wonky and bent. Might be a silly question but how easy are 110mm pipes to disconnect from one another? Can I replace the inlet with an adjustable connector with a sufficient angle bend? Should I use chippings/mot cat 1 to make a stable base for the inspection chamber then cement into place? As currently it is sitting in soil. (See attached pictures) Please advise.
