Hi all
i've just installed anew bathroom suite but im having problems with the basin waste it seems the original(council install)waste pipe is supoose to be 32mm but its bigger than the new pipe i have and none of the fitingss will fit it says on the original pipe 1/4" 32mm but its thicker ive even tried 40mm fittings....could this be an old mesurement as the waste pipe is as old as the house(about 20yrs old)
another question i have is we have no soil pipes on the exterior of the house they are internal boxed in in the spare room and both the bath and basin waste pipes run along the wall in the bathroom into the seperate toilet and into the fall pipe boxed in as the basin and bath waste pipes run directly past the basin couldi cut into the bath waste pipe and use it for the basin waste.
the basin waste pipe ends a good few feet away form the basin and i dont fancy having to run to it as the hot and cold water pipes are ther as well could anybody advise me on which is the best way to solve this and what i would need......cheers for any help sorry for this being so long but im a total pluming newbi..
thanks
