I did think that but I don't know if I can get all round to cut it.

I'm fitting our bathroom which has an old cast iron waste that's obviously in the wrong place! What's your thoughts on this? If I cut the cabinet, the waste is almost at the front of the unit & I'm not sure there'll be enough space to fit a pan connector. If I bring it forward slightly I'll...

I'm looking at something like this https://www.victorianplumbing.co.uk/hudson-reed-600x355mm-gloss-grey-full-depth-wc-unit The existing pipe is going to come roughly flush with the front of the unit, I can't see on the toilet...

Well, there's no pan connector there so that's a given! (y)

The current waste is cast iron. I can't find the required dimensions on any product detail as to where the new toilet waste needs to be. The end of the white bit of pipe is about 350mm from the wall.

Can you post a pic of the angle iron please? The window has been in for about 10 years.

Not sure on the joists but they should rest on the inner skin. There's no wall above the window apart from what you see in the photos.

It's original, the bungalow was built in the 50s. There's nothing above it except the soffit board.

So the soldier course above a window has come away & needs repairing. The mortar at the sides has given up & what's left is just about holding the brickwork up. At the moment it's propped up so stop it falling out completely. My thinking is square it up then either remove the mortar at...

I've tried to get the h/c index out but it's not budging.

My bathroom mixer is getting really stiff to turn after less than a year. It's an Ikea one http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/products/washstands-taps/taps/ensen-wash-basin-mixer-tap-with-strainer-chrome-plated-art-60281375/ Since it's a pain to take it off, & drive 90 miles to return it, I would...

The floor is tiled so there's no easy way to alter them:(

Hi, I have a towel rail that's fed from the CH but the pipes are from the floor not the wall. I want to fit a heating element but the only way I can see to do this is with an elbow like this. The trouble is, the pipes are directly under the inlet & outlet so I don't see how I can install...

My guess is that the original white stuff you're trying to remove is from the original (possibly wooden) windows & it's not silicone. It may be acrylic. When the upvc windows were fitted, the frames are in a different place so there's a line around the brickwork.

Cheers, I was concerned that it wouldn't seal properly!

So the builder has installed a new inspection chamber topped with one of these...

Try silicone remover.

In the ground is a vertical 110mm socket

Cheers. Yup, I've seen corner toilets. Probably won't go with one as there's enough room for a standard toilet. I was thinking along the lines of the pan connector in the middle picture but i can't fathom what I would need to connect the pan. I.e. the pan connector in the 2nd pic would go in...

I've just had some building work done which included a cloakroom toilet. The room is small, 1080x1380mm with the waste into the main drain via a rest bend in the corner at floor level (currently plugged with a socket plug). The plan is to fit the toilet mid way along the 1080mm wall but I'm...
