I’ve looked at this for a solid minute and still can’t figure out what the hell they were trying to accomplish. 😂 There had to be literally any other solution besides a giant PVC pipe across the stairs

They're daring people to get covered in sewerage.

Its in the basement. They had a overflow or a issue with their pump and went for the cheaper fix!!! Or a temp fix until repairs are done!!!

They were trying to accomplish a home built by cheap illegal labor.

Could those be basement stairs? Not that that makes it any more rational.

That’s a Home Depot job if I ever saw one.

Maybe it's a sewer line flowing into the Senate chambers.

Service will be a breeze on that particular section of pipe.

It's really stupid and a waste of space but occasionally spaces become obsolete during renovations. I'm not saying I agree with this method especially with the rubber coupling but I have seen similar

how are you even supposed to get upstairs now, duck under a drain pipe every single time?

It's up high so you don't trip.

Sometimes when discussing pricing I like to offer the cheapest but dumbest solution to see if they’ll go for it. This guy drove away from the job with cash in his pocket and a story about a retard customer #respect

Yep a clear plastic pipe would have been more appropriate!

My thought is the pipe was there already and somebody decided to expand the downstairs and this was their “compromise”.

safety feature. How else would you prevent ghosts from coming up the steps

With a fernco none the less. Just glue in a coupler.

Looks like a customer that didn't want to pay for four PVC elbows! 🙄

Don't fall down those stairs or you might break the pipe-full-o-shit. That would literally stink.

Oh boy... would love to hear any conversation before that solution.

I don't think in any world an actual licensed plumber would ever do anything like this. It's either staged as a joke, or a "do it yourselfer." The pipe is also perfectly level, which you would never do with a sewer line. Calling B.S. on this one.
