We might have enough room to go for the connection on the top of the waste/soilpipe ... is there no one way valve that you can put in the basin waste pipe to prevent any backflow from the main waste/soilpipe ?

We want to join it under the floorboards on the horizontal run of wastepipe (that is on a slight slope to outside drain). This item is where the toilet connects to the wastepipe - so higher up. We are trying to avoid having the basin waste running along the wall inside the cloakroom - as this...

We are half way through putting in a new downstairs cloakroom with a loo and a corner basin (with vanity unit to cover up pipework). The waste/soilpipe from the loo will run under the floorboards across the kitchen and then out under the back door to join to the existing soil pipe run. Can we...

Is this allowed ? Thanks
