Hi folks
I'm hoping to fit a new toilet into a cupboard downstairs in my house, almost directly below my existing bathroom. I've spoken with my local council and have confirmation I don't need a building warrant or planning permission (I'm in Scotland) so I have started trying to workk out if it's something I can do myself or if I need to get a professional in.
I've done a little plumbing before, but I've never tried to fit a brand new toilet before, nor connect anything directly to cast iron soil pipe.
In the photo, immediately behind the right wall, under the electricity meter etc is where I'd like to fit the new toilet, but I'm not sure how I can attach a soil pipe to the existing stack, or how I can route it without obscuring the gas meter etc. Am I realistically lookign at spending a fortune to get the gas meter moved (again, as I've previously paid 1900 quid to have it moved due to vandalism when it was outside)
