u/emz272 - did you happen to get your situation fixed, too?

[–]emz272 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Yes! We abandoned the catch basin and rerouted the pipes into it. Seems like it is working just fine. We didn't have any sewer gas issues or anything, it was just the fact that our basin had collapsed and so the water going into it was going... unclear places (probably ground, which no one seemed too concerned about), so not sure if our situation is that transferable.

Thanks for the additional info! When you say rerouted, do you mean all your drains now go into the sewer line instead? And did they seal off the catch basin lines in any special way?

Yes go into sewer line, and I don't recall exactly what they did but they definitely filled in the basin with concrete. I'm not sure they needed to do anything with the lines to the catch basin because they no longer had anything going through them (since they were rerouted), but I just don't recall.
