Would anyone like to say something about this?
This bathroom is at the back of the house in a single-storey extension. Under several layers of wood to make the height up to the tiles' level there's a flat metal cover that seems to be secured down. There's not much to see but I can get a picture of it if it's important.
Before the extension, which no other house on this terrace has, that drain would have been about 1.5m from the back wall of the house.
My intention is to remove the tiles and ultimately cover the floor with some kind of laminate or similar. Do you think it's OK for me to "permanently" cover up this thing? Is there something I should know about it?
Note that I suspect the current shower may drain directly into it somehow, as the waste disappears and can't be seen outside anywhere (while the sink and bath can be traced quite clearly).
Thanks,
