    Remove/blank off soil pipe boss

    Thanks. Looked perfect so I went and bought one, but when I tried to fit it it appears that the pipe outside diameter is 43mm rather than the expected 41mm for push-fit. The fittings appear to be marked OSMA 841 1 1/2 - any idea if a similar item exists for these fittings?

    Remove/blank off soil pipe boss

    Hi all I need to remove or block off the upper of the 2 bosses that feed into the soil pipe. There's not enough room to cut a section out and replace using a slip ring which seems to be a common method, so wondering if anyone has any alternative suggestions? Thanks Neil

    Fitting architrave after plastering

    Several months later, I finally remembered I should update this thread so it might be useful to others at some point. I ended up doing a combination of all the above suggestions, and some others - Some places, where the step was minimal, the architrave just went over the plaster and the gap was...
