Maybe someone can help.
I had a rotted lateral cast iron pipe in the basement. A friend swapped out the cast iron for plastic. Now to the vertical cast iron pipe it was attached to is sinking. it has dropped about an inch. I went up the the first floor and wedged some wood under the pipping so It won't slip down anymore. What should I do? Should I jack the pipe up an inch to where it was and put in all new cast iron like it was before? I think the vertical pipe is just a vent because theres no plumbing above the fist floor.
Any help would be great. Thanks
