I'm looking at hopefully re-fitting our kitchen but I'm not too sure where to start with regulations, etc. I basically want to try and do as much as I can myself with the exception of plumbing, electrics, structural, etc. The main parts of the work are to remove a load bearing wall/add RSJ...

Im currently installing these Aco Threshold drains and I can't figure out how the end cap connects? It just seems far too small, has anyone else experienced this?

I'm looking at replacing these waste pipes (leaving the soil stack as is) to give it all a tidy up. Is there a way of connecting anything differently to make it look better or would it be better just to replace like for like?

I'm wanting to lower the height of the grass so it's level with the rest of the garden (pics attached) The drain looks like it can just be lowered by removing a couple courses of bricks and for the fences I'll add higher gravel boards where soils removed Is there anything I should be wary of...
