    Can I add a new bathroom a distance away from SVP?

    Hello all, We purchased the property a year ago and we're now finding that we'd really like an additional bathroom downstairs in what was originally planned as a utility room by the previous owners. The extension is split with a concrete block wall in the middle between the utility and dining...

    Ensuite plumbing

    Hi all Our house currently has one bathroom, with the soil pipe directly next to it. We are hoping to create a small ensuite in the largest bedroom (toilet, shower, sink). The challenge is that this is on the opposite side of the house to where the existing soil pipe is. I'm not sure whether...

    Combining Rainwater with greywater

    Hi, I am planning to swap the location of my kitchen and dining room and the best route for the greywater would be into existing rainwater gulleys - with a short extension. It is a house from the early 30s so the rain and soil pipe already combine before entering a combined sewer running...

    Garden office plumbing questions

    I'm planning on building a garden office in place of the current shed. It will be at the back of the garden, ~ 40 metres from the house, and have a toilet, electric shower and washbasin. From what I've gathered, for water supply I can use 25mm blue MDPE and this needs to be buried underground...

    Replacement Septic Tank Building Regs + Drainage

    Hello, I am in the process of buying a house which has an old septic tank. The vendor doesn't know anything about it at all (so older than the 15yrs they have lived there), and they don't know where it drains to. They claim it works without problem, and is emptied once a year. I will be...
