Thanks for all your replies.. These are the measurements of the room..

Who would have thought buying a toilet could be such a ball ache... I'm looking at toilets and I'm so confused, I need one with short projection as the room hasn't got much depth. Ideally under 600mm. This one fits the bill in terms of that but would I be able to stick a flexi-pan connector on...

Thanks Nige, you are correct, I checked with a magnet and it appears it's cast iron.. can I still use an angle grinder with diamond wheel?

Hi Justin.. Shame this is just the pan as I'm in the collection area next week.. The broken tail won't come out, it's stuck in solid . The diameter with it in is 90mm and 108mm if it wasn't there, the clay collar has a height of 70mm. Could I cut the clay collar to floor level, if so what's the...

Thanks for the reply ETAF but my DIY skills and budget are both quite limited.. Was looking at this toilet. VeeBath PRI002 Base Ceramic White Close Coupled Modern Cloakroom Bathroom WC Toilet Pan & Cistern with Soft Closing Seat, 64 x 38 x 75.5 centimeters https://amzn.eu/d/4gyPzjf But it...

I’ve installed an external toilet room and laid the flooring. The soil pipe exits vertically through the floor, not flush, and protrudes slightly (see attached image). The centre of the waste pipe is 180mm from the finished wall, and the diameter is 150mm. I'm looking for advice on the most...

I've tried everything to remove the porcelain and I'm not even making a dent . If I can get a pan connector that size, think I'll have to do that...

Hi, I decided to sort out our outside toilet. I removed the existing toilet however there are two issues which I want a bit of advice on.. Firstly they concreted the old toilet into place so now I've removed it im left with a mound of dried concrete, I've removed some of it with a cold chisel...

Thought you might say that.. .. So anything I need to know before attempting it.. Basically, anyone fancy giving me step by step instructions ..

Hi guys, We were wanting to give our tiny bathroom a bit of a make over. The first project is a new basin. The current basins depth is around 25cm and it's a vanity. I removed the vanity cupboard as we're keen on a wall hung basin to make the room seem larger However the pipes are coming up...

I just took the handle off and there are two holes for spindles.. so, yep, think it's fine for a split spindle.. think being the operative word..

Hi guys, Just moved into a new house and my wife is worried I'll leave the front door unlocked (which I probably will). She wants me to replace it with something that will lock itself once closed.. I don't really want to pay for a locksmith or drill holes and retro fit self locking locks . I...

Hi guys, There are two stairs leading down to our kitchen. There is a right angle piece of wood covering the carpet where the stairs go from tread to riser ( struggling to even describe it ) Anyway, one's come loose and needs replacing but I don't know what they're called.. Anyone know? Cheers,

Hi guys, I have an old table lamp that's stopped working. The wires are fed through a hole that goes from the base to the top and then connects to a lamp holder at the top. I decided whilst I was at it to change the lamp holder from a plastic one to a brass one for aesthetics. I then brought...

Hi, So we had a leak from the upstairs bathroom that's ended with a big hole in our kitchen ceiling. Inside the hole there's some weird lining. It looks as if at some point there was a fire and one of the joists has been scorched and this has been used to wrap the joist, does this sound...
