I am thinking of installing a new washbasin and toilet in the downstairs cloakroom. I have a couple of questions. The room is approx
2.7 metre by 1.3 metre. I'm hoping someone can help me with the following:1/ The toilet is at the 1.3 metre back wall, but the soil-pipe (which goes vertically into the ground is offset from the centre of the wall (ie it is 55cm from one of the sidewalls, rather than 65cm). Is it possible to install a toilet midway along the back-wall without moving the soil pipe, by using some sort of flexible connector?
2/ The existing washbasin is approx midway along one of the 2.7 metre walls. Currently the supply and waste pipes run along that wall from/to the end wall. They are attached to the wall and are boxed in. I think the boxing-in looks a bit ugly, but so would exposed pipework. Is it feasible to run the supply and waste pipes within the wall itself, which is a stud partition? If so, I was thinking of attaching the wash-basin taps/spout to the wall rather than to the washbasin. In that situation, can one attach them to the normal wallboard or does one need to construct some sort of framework for them to attach to behind the wallboard?thanks in advance..
