Hello everyone,
Firstly apologies if this is posted in the wrong forum section!
I have a single storey extension to a bungalow over an old WC, which sat just outside the boundary of the original building. The toilet has been removed (it was opposite the bathroom and therefore a second toilet that never got used) and the soil stack is capped off.
- Can I bore a hole in the original wall and route the soil stack through it so it runs up to the attic (for an attic en-suite)? Will I need to install a lintel over this bore hole?
- How close to a fuse box can a waste pipe be? If this borehole can be undertaken my soil stack would run up beside the fuse box;
Do the Regs allow this?
Any advice is much appreciated.
Adam
