    What are my options replacing toilet with waste pipe in floor?

    A few years ago I had to replace my old, 1960's downstairs loo as it had a crack in it. I was told that, because the waste pipe went down into a hole in the concrete floor and because of the distance of that hole from the back wall (20cm), I'd need a loo with a concealed cistern in a large...

    Waste water pump

    Hi can anyone recommend a good waste water pump. For clean water so won't need a macerator bit. It's for a waste run that now has 6 meters pipe with a fall of 20mm. So well out of limits for the required fall. Has been tested yet but I don't think will work without a pump.

    Slightly moving waste pipe connection into soil pipe

    Parents have had a steel beam put into their hallway ceiling to adequately support landing and stairs. This means that the waste from a sink and shower will need to be reinstated slightly lower into the soil pipe, as the pipes will now run under rather than through the beams (the joists will be...

    Tee basin into shower waste?

    Hello, have a 4m run of 50mm pipe for the shower. The layout of joists, closeness of corner walls etc mean that it would be very helpful to be able to add the basin waste to a swept tee in the shower waste and this could be between 300-800mm from the soil stack . I've read elsewhere very mixed...

    Hello. I'm connecting a long run of 50mm solvent weld waste pipe from a shower to the stack (compliant with regs hence 50mm). The soil stack branch is Hunter and I bought a Hunter solvent weld boss adapter to fit on it. However, the waste pipe (Floplast I think)is a loose fit in the adapter...

    Shower waste hole slope: defect or ok?

    I have a 40 mm resin tray to install (sand/cement over suspended ground floor) and a decent McAlpine 90 mm waste. The hole in the tray is apparently on the built-in fall by accident or design, so that, with the ground-flat base, the edges of the hole vary from about 4 mm to about 8 mm on either...
