Any plumbers?? estimate for drains.

I've been digging up the ground floor of my house to put in a DPC and new concrete floor - and the drain (110mm clay one) that runs through the house is in bad nick in a few places (where I've drilled a hole in it lol!!)

How much will it cost to fit a few new sections (totalling no more than 2.5 - 3 metres) of drains, plastic ones I assume being the ones commonly used today?

Alternatively - how much will it cost to fit a whole new one - about five metres in length with one 90 degree turn (1m length + 4m length). could that be easier to do.

I don't think it's a huge job - as all the excavation is done - and is it just a matter of fitting new sections of plastic drains to the existing one??

Any ideas regarding price would be greatly appreciated!!

thanks.
