    Access box with lid?

    I want to run some speed fit pipe under the floor in the cloak room toilet, which has a concrete floor. The specs say it should be in a access box with lid, which will be hidden under the floor I lay when finished, but where do I get it from, I'm looking everywhere but can't see it?

    moving soil stack

    It is an outside wall, yes. What is your thinking here? Bensparks, ill measure up that idea. The patch is where there was a concreat block under old pan but new one can go anywhere, so putting it against that outside was and in casing that pipe in the new build is an option.

    Downstairs toilet smells after use?

    There is a plastic cap on the top, with small holes I thought were vents? Do you think it could be another reason for the smell then?
