That is fucked, get it replaced down to the ground. A plumber will do it.
Once they destroy the verticals they will be able to tell if the bit going into the wall is damaged and whether that needs replacing.
Soil pipe is fairly dear, and you'd save money by employing a plumber who is happy to do this off a ladder, assuming this is from eaves gutter down to the garden.
But our guy usually does this in a day easy.
Apart from if the bit going into the wall is knacked.
£300-400? That's a guess btw, but i wouldn't be too surprised if it came out around that figure. -
Not your pipe, it is the landlords...his shit to deal with.

It appears my soil pipe is leaking and causing damp to seep through the wall of the downstairs flat (I'm on the 1st floor). Not sure if it's just the outside pipe, which is quite clearly corroded, or the pipe going through the wall to the toilet on the other side of that external wall (and how you can find out if that is the case).
Who deals with this kind of stuff? Plumber, builder, someone else? Any recommendations for North London and thoughts on how much it may cost? Cheers
