The aav will be in the garage and won't be boxed in..... if that makes a difference...... don't suppose it does. Can you connect a waste stack around a corner? I have another waste stack at the back of the house that is currently exposed down to a depth of about 1 meter below the ground not...

Not really - I'd have to box in a waste pipe horizontally over to the corner of the bedroom. The toilet waste height is currently coming through the gable wall about a foot above the new 1st floor height. I'd have to box this is too - I'd end up losing too much space in the room. Its aint that...

Does a domestic garage floor need to be lower than the oversite concrete of an adjacent room - the room having a suspended timer floor above it I'm having an extension and want to divide the garage from the new dining room at the back of the garage with a stud wall - metal studs, fully...

There is/will be another waste stack on the new external wall that is connected to the same manhole..... this one will be open vented. I'll have to speak to building control to see if its acceptable or not. If its not, not sure what I'll do.

Yeah there is a stop tap at the boundary.

I would duct it up until it reaches the underside of the joists..... can't see the point in ducting it all the way to the back of the house. It comes in under the lounge floor..... hence the stop cock not appearing until it come through the floor in the kitchen.

Was thinking like this....

It will be underground outside, and then under the suspended timber floor of the house.... running across the oversite. O I'm wondering if I could clip it to the underside of the joists. This would keep it 3 feet above the oversite concrete. There's no way to run it underneath the oversite.

The water main into my house is in 15 copper pipe from the street. It enters the house at the front and runs across the surface of the oversite concrete to the back of the house. It then runs up the rear wall into the kitchen where the house stop tap is. I want to replace it with 25 mm mdpe...

My existing waste stack runs up my gable end wall. I am having a storey side extension, so the waste stack will end up in bedroom.... not a fan of this. I want to turn the waste immediately downwards out of the toilet into the bathroom floor and into the space between the joists. I then want...

Can u post a picture? Seems odd that you would go to the expense of bi-folds and not replace the carpet so it fits..... I think I might have misunderstood

Why do you hate it? I'm considering having it on the front of an extension.....

I'm extending the garage at my house and need to add a meter wide strip of new concrete to join the existing slab floor. The existing slab was poured in 1968 and hasn't moved an inch.... im not removing it all just to put it all back in. Whats the best way to add to it and how is it best to...

Hi I have an attached garage at the side of my house. I am demolishing this to have a new garage built that is 1 meter wider and it will have a bedroom above it. The plans have been approved and it states the garage floor will be 100mm conc (thickened to 350 at the threshold) on top of 150mm...

I know they're external stone sills, but what type are they when they are stooled at one end and not the other, so two can be joined together like these two

Can anyone tell me what these stone cills are called, and are they easy enough to install retrospectively? I assume its just a case of removing two courses of brick.....

There are 3 x 22mm pipes and 2 x 15mm pipes that enter the cupboard from under the floor. One if the 15mm pipes goes into the loft and is dead. There is a 22mm pipe that is capped off. Then the other 2 x 22mm pipes and 15mm pipe all come in together - so I've assumed they are flow and return...

I'm moving the pipework lower down now because the cupboards being removed. I'm just gonna join it up the same way as it is now, but at ground level. It just left me scratching my head about. The immersion wiring is still in there and is still live, so that's getting removed too.

Just surprised me that there are 3 pipes linked together, rather just the flow from the boiler being linked to the flow of the central heating...... confused

There are 2 x 22mm pipes that come up into the airing cupboard and a 15mm. You see the two 22mm pipes are linked together, and the 15mm pipe tees into it half way along and then has the air release valve.
