Yes that was what i was thinking. It has knock outs. Im thinking this would look better in the long run

Right so that will stop it splashing out i take it? Shall i go with the square osma? I like it because its a bit of an all in one unit with high volume. If not theres some rodable rectange ones. Iv noticed not all rectange ones are a full grate. Also will throw a splash guard around it

Things have been on hold, but now back at it! With more questions! Can anyone tell me whats the general go-to for combing sink waste and storm into one drain. As stated we have a combined system. The sink will run outside like drawing above, i could get a rectangle roddale hopper gully and...

here's a little picture i made! there's an existing water supply that has to go through, it's inside ducting at somewhere near 500mm below ground level. this cant be changed as it runs across the back of our property to supply next door's water. next to it, is my proposed new pipe inside a...

Edit: i wouldnt of put the gas under footings, but i was thinking i could have gone through with a bridge? That still a nono? Il post a little drawing so i know im on the right track.

The pipe has already been done and is currently out the ground. New boundary box has been installed. Footings shouldnt be more than a meter based on what iv already dug and exposed but will see.

Hi guys Im picking my kitchen extension job back up, after loads of delays, builders pulling out etc im just starting myself and getting as far as i can. I need to pass the drainage through the footings, as per usual using a bridge/lintel method with 100mm clearance. My question is i have a...

Hi guys. Yes far as i know it needs to be min 1m, il double check but pretty sure.

Hi guys. Got to dig trenches out for our 4x4.5m extension. I have manually dug foottings near the services, digger coming wednesday if all goes to plan (given current situation) Now, we know we have to dig minimal 1m down, good ground is hit at 500mm so 1m sould be max. The possible problem...

Great help mate cheers. Exactly what i had in mind. And now makes sense i hadnt thought of a suspender floor. I suppose because they are vented. Nice one!

Ian, what you think regards insulation? Really needed? Sounds a little OTT, the lead was only 400mm down! At least id be at 750+

Pulled this from the south staffs website. "7. Pipes must be laid in a continuous duct and insulated where they pass through the foundations, are buried under buildings or are installed under suspended floors (e.g. block and beam). Contact the Water Regulations Team for insulation information...

so this is where we are at. i added the inspection chamber for SVP and changed the storm gulley for the kitchen sink to go under extension. obviously angle etc will have to be worked out but it gives the basic idea. i decided to put the ground toilet WC/sink storm straight into the chamber. if...

:ROFLMAO: Im useless. He never picked that up when he looked. But your right i had forgot. :LOL:

Hi ian. Yes the picture looks odd because pipes have been added at some time at the wrong angle to the exit point of the manhole. This is one of the reasons i kinda didnt want to mess with the manhole. I have spoke to the architect and proposed the drawing i put on here, he has agreed with it...

I have ordered a cheapo camera to drop in the drain to see if there is any incoming waste. I think before i make any decisions i at least need to know that fact!

Right so iv come back with some minor issues, as with everything, nothing is as it seems! turns out the drains run differently from what we anticipated. We knew we would have a sewer run at the rear of our house that the storm drain is using, but it doent run how we initially thought. Severn...

I did wonder i thought it was some sort of bonding cable :D

Mate, if you hadnt of posted that picture i would of said are you taking the **** :ROFLMAO: Cant brelieve they cut that. Il add them to the list (y)

Ian, just to confirm. When you say a pipe cutter for plastic, are you saying yo use the plastic housed ones because it wont score the lead? Iv got a set of the red rothernberg plastic pipe cutters.
