As an update - I opted for the below adjustable fitting (raving reviews) to try and get it done yesterday. At first it seemed ideal for the job... Small 110mm pipe between the bottom end of the adjustable elbow to the drain connector in the floor. Able to compensate with the...

Not sure I know the difference between underground/overground fittings (other than the colour), This piping work is going to be underneath a raised wooder floor in the garage. But pls do tell if you can think of anything else, I doubt I have the energy to do anything as am currently losing the...

Doubt the building inspectors are coming to fix it when it leaks or blocks - hence the work to ensure it doesn't.

This... ...is going into a bit of 110cm piping which is going into... ...which is going into the waste hole in the floor

Was asking if the goal can't be achieved what is the minimum acceptable. Pre-planning prior to bringing in resources - if the plan cannot be executed, needed a contingency and fall back position. Capiche? Am trying to execute on the good advise...

Doesn't take a genius to say its crap and should be better. Understanding where not to compromise and the risk/rewards of potential work is what we need from the experts.

Ok, can give it a try - but in plumbing I am finding once you undo things, they don't go back together again and projects spiral. If the WC in the wrong position will have to stick to flexi WC connector as moving the WC back is limited. But at least the garage plumbing will not have an offset...

Thanks. But just to be clear you are saying this flexi... Should be replaced with this... And the rest is unlikely to leak if its not leaking now? Those Offset joint connections are not a known hazard for future blocks and leaks?

Ta. I guess this is what I wanted to be sure about for the future. I could try and build an access trap door in the garage raised floor in case needed, but this isn't going to be easy. The 2 future worries are leaks and blockages - comparing the below... Current stack (7 Connections?): -A flexi...

Ok, just checking I understand the consensus here... The suggested stack are: -A 90° WC pan connector going into a 110mm pipe -The 110mm pipe going into a raised double socket elbow -The double socket elbow is raised by 110mm small pipe section into it -The 110mm small pipe section going into...

Thanks. Will reply to the rest of the posts as well and appreciate the input. Not sure how a 90degree WC plan connector is going to create less pinch points then a WC bent flexi connector (if anything you can pinch and bend the flexi is there is blockage). Issues on the pantry side of the WC...

Thanks for input, am keen to understand them as not sure what they mean. Do bear in mind that there is also a correction the offset is doing in this plane of view... hence wondering if the offset had to stay, do they seal maintenance free?

Quick update... Put a flexi thing into the pan instead... That seemed to make it easier to get the drain connector and elbow in a better position (I think).... Maybe can chip a bit more of the bottom hole part, however the drain connector is pretty flat at the moment - with some silicone...

Thanks for info. Yes, could find a double socket elbow - or maybe cut down a connector... Yes, it looks likes it needs to be higher up to be lined up as the 110mm fall is pushing the elbow backwards. A question of finding the impingement place - maybe its the hole in the wall just needs to...

Kept the previous floor as quarry tiles. Think its the right shout, so thanks. Did rip out the old garage WC and put some pipe plumbing in... Connector with boss into an elbow, into an offset and then 110mm pipe through the wall... Waste Connects to the WC on the other side and into...

Thanks. Hole in the ceiling is us drilling out a hole to see if poss to put the 15mm pipes up there. Patched it up now Only two wires into the switch and only two into the light bulb socket (so not sure where the neutral is coming from). One of the wires disappears down a black hole and then...

https://www.vinterior.co/furniture/tables/bedside-tables/fab-vintage-retro-chippy-heath-mid-century-teak-telephone-seat-hall-table-blue-sku85758206 ... seriously?

Thanks. No didn't know that. Its been sitting there for 60/70 odd years (or maybe more). Was going to chuck it - but might have to make my way to see Fiona Bruce with it under arm.

Thanks. I assume any connection to the light "switch" is not going to work as its old and I assume neutral, live are not clear and there is no earth? If I wired an actual switch to the fan, it would stay on until the switch is off. So would it be possible to fit a time-lag switch like this...

Hi, doing a convert of a under the stairs pantry into a WC (nightmare). Getting there with the plumbing issues but had an electrical questions. -Had an AC mains socket in there (replaced with a connector block for now to keep the loop) -Have a working light switch -Have a light socket which...
