hi, my garden office is about 100ft from the mains soil pipe (which is unfortunately hidden under recently laid concrete:banghead:)
i want to build on a small extension to this room with a sink, toilet and shower.
i dont want one of those awful electric toilets that look like they belong in a caravan - want a proper loo, that could praps have a pump, macerator whatever on the outside wall of office, running down narrowish pipe hidden down length of garden to attach to mains.

any advice on best way to install/ingenious solutions
any experts out there who do this who might want to quote?
as I say, read loads of bad stuff re saniflow etc - what is the alternative if any

dont have a gazillion to spend which is why cant do mains pipe all the way.

thx!
 
It'll be a saniflo or one of these

As Bod said if you post your location, it may be possible for somebody to have a look for you. Some pictures of the terrain between office and drain may help as well.

oops sorry - based in kingston (north surrey/sw london) (but originally from gods own garden too!)
4 pics here (sorry for overkill) displaying office - bathroom will be added in the back left corner, pipework down round privet and along length of garden.
patio is 4 courses high (til then its all flat earth) hardcore and concrete. side return has celotex down edges - used to contain the wet concrete and should make a good channel for pipes to avoid need for too much digging out.
soil pipe entrance is roughly where the travis perkins bag is at end of return

sorry just tried to upload pix - failed. basically, 100 ft of flat earth from office, followed by about 50ft of concrete, but with a channel down edges.
