i believe the waste pipe fitted at the mo is 32 mm will i have to upgrade the trap and pipes to 40mm??????
Had a friend do the work who is meant to be a plumber/builder, it now appears my ex-friend is a jack of none and a master of none and a bit of a con man, but never mind that stuff.
My waste pipe is definately 32mm, but i should be able to upgrage the trap and pipework so what size of pipework would be best????

40mm is the minimum for a shower tray or bath. 32mm should only be used on a hand wash basin.
As Corgi says we do not know what fall etc you have. I presume you have got a continuous fall and it hasn't been 'forced' up at some point to join on to existing wastes
