Advice Requested: Cast Iron Waste Pipe
Well Good Morning!
So I am a long time lurker and minimal contributor, however I come to this forum for knowledge.
I am looking for advice on a cast iron waste pipe in my house, built in the 50's. I have spoken with a plumber and some DIY plumbers and I am getting some mixed assessments, so I am here for some more! Each union/connection has shown signs of dampness, and a couple spots under the connection points I see a tiny puddle. There are no visible leaks, and the pipe itself does not have any truly rusted out points that I have seen. All the issues tend to be at the connection points.
My question is, without just replacing it with PVC, has anyone here tried to use a product to seal these joints? I'm going to eventually replaced with PVC, but I figure I'd like to try something easier first.
Thank you very much!
