toilet

I have a flexible pan connector going from my toilet, into the wall. The toilet pipe (on the left side) is standard ≈ 90mm Diameter But the wall pipe (on the right side) is non-standard and old and ≈100mm Diameter For some reason the pan pipe degrades once a year (maybe i have hungry mice) or...

Downstairs loo doesn't always flush away solids, or sometimes it appears to, then solid floats back into view, or water discolours, but I only see this a few hours later when I return. A plumber came round and said it wasn't the flush it was a blocked pipe so get Dynorod. I got Dynorod who...

Hello, Wondering if anyone has had experience opening a cistren where under the 2 buttons looked like the below?? I have tried to turn the chrome ring anti clockwise but there is quite a bit of resistance so I'm scared I will break something. Grateful for any advice as the water from the...

Hi, I'm inexperienced with plumbing but keen to give it a go... also female so don't have man strength or many tools, but have a few! My toilet makes loud foghorn pipe noises after flushing that is resolved when I lift up the ballcock arm. I think the washer may need replacing (after googling...

Hi guys, Having a few issues with the toilet at the house I've just started renting. I'd ask the landlord but I want it seen to today so I'll try it myself! Wondering if anyone could assist me in fixing a slow filling cistern, I don't really know where to start with fixing a toilet so any help...

Someone has suggested to us that in order to save space in our bathroom we hang the cistern in the airing cupboard, directly behind the toilet. The airing cupboard is directly behind the toilet, and does not contain a boiler (so it's just really a cupboard now). It sounds great to save space in...

Hi guys, I really want to knock down my outdoor toilet. It basically falling apart anyway. The toilet has been taken out and capped off. I own the house. Forgive me for being silly but can I just start knocking it down carefully with a sledgehammer?

We've had an AAV fitted in our upstairs bathroom - but I'm convinced something is not right with the plumbing/connections somewhere as most days there is an awful smell coming from the room - like we have a direct link to the main sewers!! We've had a few plumbers round but nobody has been able...

Hi guys, just after some experienced opinions if you don't mind? We're doing our bathroom at the moment and we've had to move the toilet, so in doing so the waste pipe has had to be moved. I'm just not sure there's enough of an angle for it not to cause blockages in the future. What do you guys...

Hi all, Wonder if anyone out there can offer some advice regarding connecting up a toilet pan to the existing waste outlet. I pulled out the old pan and waste, and bought a flexible pan connector. I managed to get the end into the wall socket using the existing rubber gasket, but only after a...

Hi, I have a toilet with drain in the floor. I want to screed the floor, raising it about 100mm, and add a new toilet, sink and washing machine trap. My first thought was to get an extender that will be buried in the screed. This would then join a 90 degree pan connector with boss, to connect...

Does anyone know how to remove the lid from the cistern on an Ideal Standard toilet as in photo?

We have recently bought a new house with a bathroom at the front (no toilet) and a WC at the rear. Waste and SVP are located at the rear of property where is current toilet is. How hard and expensive will it be to relocate or even install a new toilet to the bathroom at the front of the...

I'm renovating my bathroom. I've already ordered the new bath, basin, toilet, furniture, etc... Currently the bathroom is carpeted - a pet hate of mine, but that was how it was when we moved in. I've yet to lift the carpet, but under the bath itself are floorboards. I don't want to tile for...

Hello, I need help! We have a strange problem with our downstairs loo, it appears to play host to a 'lurking turd'! Everytime you go to the loo the water is brown and there are poo particles lingering at the bottom of the pan, on flushing its clear and flushes well. Then, even if you've...

Could not help laughing at this photo... :LOL:

Recently moved house and found that the downstairs toilet water becomes dirty (DISCOLOURED) - not through use! The water looks as though a piece of waste has slowly "dissolved". We have two toilets (upstairs and downstairs) which are connected to the same 5inch(?) soil pipe. The downstairs...

I have a customer who wants a hidden cistern to save space in his smallish bathroom. The toilet is currently on the external (2 skin w/cavity) wall, and there is nowhere else it will fit, so has to stay on this wall. He doesnt want a small boxing to hide the cistern, even though it would only...

Hi forum, My father is unfortunately in poor health with cancer, and in an attempt to make him more comfortable we have looked into and bought an automatic bidet seat that fits ontop of their existing toilet and replaces the traditional toilet seat . It looks like this: We purchased it from...

I'd be grateful if anyone could help me work out what to do about the cold water feed when we replace our toilet. Currently we have a high-level toilet and the feed comes down from the ceiling. I would like to change the toilet to one with enclosed sides but I don't know if this would be...
