making a second area for toilet

[surfingmace]

Hi I am wanting to utilise the space under my stairs for a toilet. At present it is being used as storage area/ lader in my kitchen. I want to put in a wall and put a toilet in and sink does anyone know if you can do this or planning permission would not allow this as the only access to the toilet is through the kitchen?
Thanks
Stuart

you can do it but you still need building regs.

You used to need a "lobby" in between the kitchen and the toilet but that was recinded some while ago because people were just putting two door a few inches apart which was making a mockery of the regs.

So now you can have the toilet directly off the kitchen but you will still need building regs approval as thats required for all new toilets.

How many small builders actually apply I dont know!

Hi, I am not an expert to answer your query. One thing I can help you with is to recommend a good site where you can get the best deals on your renovation plans. For toilet and bath discounted items, you can check DIY deals and discount shop.
