> if you can do as much of it your self, you will be much better off. it’s like a 10k job to have a plumber contracted to do it. At least that’s what I hear, and one of the things I was really worried about when I bought my house. Unfortunately, with old cast iron traps, the plumber we had scope the drains, couldn’t get out past the house trap.

10k… f that, I will dig the hole with a spoon before i pay someone 10k to do it!

I will probably go ahead and at least dig it out myself, it will suck but what do you do? another problem I am having is finding the vent outside for the drain. stupid old houses!
