Hi all, new here but lurked for a long time. Looking for some advice going forward with a toilet move. Bungalow which had separate WC and bathroom but wall has been removed now. I'm looking to put a bath in the location of the toilet and looking to move it and want some advice for this.

There is no external soil stack and the toilet is currently cemented onto a vertical clay pipe coming up under the floorboards.

I want to move the toilet to the centre of the room to make space for the bath, approximately 1.2m to the left as the picture shows.

What's the best course of action? Cut the clay pipe as low as possible and Use a rubber adapter and then use 2 45s to bend off it, with a straight pipe leading to the new toilet location with a 45 bend again if it allows?

Hoping to keep all pipework under floorboards.

Also with the bath going in that position is it feasible to tie the bath waste into the soil?

Or core outside and tie into the drain as pictured?

Any help would be great!

I would personally core hole for bath waste and take it into existing gulley just makes future maintenance easier.
Soil cut clay allow as possible adaptor then I would have no problem using 2 90 bends as long as they weren't tight radius,
Make sure new soil pipe is well supported/ clipped up
 
Thanks for the reply.

I figured that with the bath waste. Makes it easier I guess having all waste on one run to the gutter.

I was initially going to use 2 90s but read all the horror stories about blockages but I suppose the 90s will be on the verticals. Would something like these work for 90s?


Or would it need to be a bigger radius? Providing there's enough space

Great thanks for your help! Would it be best practice to use a piece of 110mm from the adapter to the double socket. And again at the pan end to allow a 90 pan connector to sit in? The space is reasonably tight but not too far so I imagine I would still have the required drop on the horizontal
