    Hello.
    How to seal the passage in the drain wall from the toilet to the riser in the block. The wall is made of plasterboard and tiles. The drain is made of a flexible pipe (accordion pipe) with a diameter of approx. 100-110 mm. The gap between the tiles and the pipe is up to approx. 3-4 cm in places.
    Thanks for the help in advance.
    Regards
    Raphael

    The metal one from Castorama did not fit the pipe

    Once, a neighbor had a problem with the toilet and asked me for help. I bought a piece of rubber that was more or less the same size in a local store, and that solved the problem.

    You`re actually right, I was thinking about sealing the sewage pipe to the riser all the time.

    Can you read with understanding?

    Passage through the wall, not connected to the sewage system. This is about aesthetic considerations, because the gap between the tiles is not the gap between one sewage pipe and another.

    Hello,
    Thank you for the tips, but I think we didn`t fully understand each other. The drain from the toilet to the riser is made like this: https://mcalpine.pl/product/wc-con9f/.
    And I want to seal it because from time to time there is a "stack" coming from the vertical. I already have the rosette, but it does not fulfill this task, because that is not what it is designed for.

    Well, now you finally wrote what you mean. Then look for leaks, where something is put together incorrectly, or maybe there is a missing gasket. Or maybe show a photo of how it was done.

    Well, look, it`s all about sealing the drain, but it didn`t work out that way.

    I gave you the link in post #5, I think it will do the trick.

    Well, look, he already installed it, only in a different configuration, vertical.

    Why do you think so, where do you see it?

    In #7 the author writes this. And this fulfills the same role as the trapper you suggested.

    It`s not about making it look nice and it wasn`t worth anything. The thing about the trapper is that it fits very tightly and fits better, then you push the drain pipe into it. This solution is much better, and I assure you, more durable than the white plastic and rubber ones. The trapper simply ensures a better fit to a pipe that has pits and other irregularities due to age.

    I don`t entirely agree with you. The trapper is inserted with one end (socket with a seal) onto the toilet bowl drain, and the lower part goes into the drain pipe.

    Nothing like that, the trapper presses himself into the socket of the pipe that comes out of the riser, it can be a piece of straight pipe, an elbow, depending on what we are connecting to. Then we connect to the trapper through our drain, whatever suits us. The trapper remains vertical as it were.

    This is a trapper for cast iron pipe:

    And this is the toilet bowl trap:

    If there is a "stack" coming from the riser, the riser does not have ventilation outlet above the roof. That`s the first thing.
    Secondly, if you write that there is 3-4 cm of space between the outlet (diameter 110 mm) and the riser, then the riser has a diameter of 160 mm and no gaskets will help - you need to use a 160/110 reduction (corrected, thank you col. @ta_tar ).
    It would be best if you posted a photo of this place so that everyone could see what your problem was with this "looseness".

    If it has a regular vertical pipe diameter 160, maybe something like this:
    Sealing the sewage pipe passing through the wall in the bathroom.
    And if it`s an old cast iron one, maybe something like this:
    Sealing the sewage pipe passing through the wall in the bathroom.

    Although it probably fits into a regular pipe too.

    Maybe to the point.
    The author of the thread wants to "brick up" the hole between the pipe and the wall - take a few pieces of plasterboard, slightly smaller than the gap and plaster, and use them to block up the gap, placing them on the plaster - this is probably the easiest way.

    Additionally, if something stinks, it means that the pipe connections are leaking somewhere - because the installation should not stink even on the surface.

    And where we don`t know - if it`s accessible, you have the entrance of this flexible pipe to the sewage stack - is it plastic or cast iron?

    The easiest and maybe even cheapest way is to use mounting foam for this purpose. You apply it into the crack and after it hardens, cut off any protruding parts.

    Exactly, it`s about the gap between the wall and the drain pipe. There`s always something smelling in the vertical, so I wanted to seal it. Foam is the first idea, but I thought that maybe there is another way, more removable and reusable.

    This is filled either with foam or simply with some mortar - plaster, tile adhesive, or something similar.

    What are you talking about? If there was a smell of sewage there, it would indicate a leak at the pipe connections or branches. And you need to make sure everything is tight.

    But the author still hasn`t posted a photo of what he has there, so he still won`t get advice tailored to the situation.
