Hi all, need some advice on my plan for my new bathroom + boiler/cylinder cupboard, specifically the waste pipes. Here is my proposed plan: For some context here is the room that will be bathroom (excuse the mess): The exterior wall actually goes into my conservatory (long term the...

Thanks for the help all. Got it done today. Grinding it out was a pain as there wasn’t enough space to get the grinder around it all. So had to cut chunks out bit by bit and then tidy up the ends when the middle section was out. There was quite a lot of water in the pipe itself. I guess the...

Thanks @Hugh Jaleak . I’ll leave the sink waste where it is. Will add another gully to the left of the insuduct. Cut out a section of the clay. Put a section of plastic in with a tee. And have the washing machine waste go into it. I don’t really fancy having the kitchen waste going over the...
