Can a soil stack be moved?

[Garlando6]

I have an internal soil stack, it is situated in a hidden area under the stairs. The downstairs WC has been built in front of this. A recent flood has meant that the wall in the downstairs WC has been opened up and exposed the hidden area, which turns out to be absolutely huge! Now that it is open I wanted To know if I can now push the whole downstairs WC into this space and make my hallway much larger. The problem is that the soil stack is at the very front of the hidden area next to the plasterboard wall where the toilet is currently situated. It would mean moving the toilet back 2-3 metres and also the soil stack! Can you move a soil stack? What would it involve? Would it be very costly?

Anything's possible with enough money thrown at it give us half a chance with a pic , sure it hasn't been built out to give head clearance to the stair treads

there are limits on length and sizes of waste pipe runs to be adhered too, in its current position it has probably been working fine, architect chose well when building the house, so moving it could throw up lots of problems, which can be sorted at a cost normally.

So the head height is ceiling level really but the soil stack in current position would mean that I couldn't have a normal size door as it's in the way, so moving it would be better. The house is a new build, so floating screed floor on block and beam! Will I encounter lots of problems moving it. A friend suggested that it would mean have to kango up the floor etc.

would suggest a bi fold door, or if enough room to build a capacity stud wall a sliding door is also nice ......
