    Managed to get a plumber to do it all properly.... 
    A photo? Jus curious if this proper job is what I thought it had to be... 
    This is from the bathroom above. Looks like a new soil pipe or section with a solvent welded junction.

    Not ideal to have a hole that large in a joist... but at least the plumbing has been done properly.

    Yes, I see that hole now.  I think there's regs for size/percentage and distance from wall.
