desperado

Hi i'm renovating my house and i've managed to crack the 4" soil pipe that i want to connect into. As it's in concrete and it goes right across the house i don't want to disturb everything else. Is there a way of repairing it in place at all? I had thought some sort of mastic might do it, but i'm worried if it leaks and causes more of a headache.

Any ideas on how to proceed?

Cheers

you dont say what type of crack it is but epoxy resin is the favoured method of repair some fittings are actually made using resin glues
