STOP F ‘ing laughing EVERYONE !
-
It was the right call . This joint ( probably less than a mm gap ) I can see daylight . Doesn’t show in the photo but it’s there . I need to construct a way where I can piece by piece assemble and glue with less time constraint v2
-
Part of the problem was I needed ‘play’ to fit all this so I unclipped the geberit pan end. Just gave me enough wiggle room . But once glued I had to run upstairs and position the toilet pipe again ( wasting valuable seconds ) . Anyway ! Here I can see not fully inserted - so will never know if it was 100% leak proof .
-
Ffs ! I’ll cut the bitch out !!! ?
-
You mean ‘plug’ the fitting to the other toilet ? . Don’t have one to hand and of course no builders merchants open !!!
-
I currently have another toilet connection to make before the soil pipe could be filled . I should finish this other joint . Block the drain ( best way to do that ? ) . Then fill the entire pipe until I can actually see it in the toilet fitting waste
-
Ok . Exactly what do I need / do for an air test ?
-
Yet I thought of that . Sharpie tends not to show up on black pipe . But with hindsight used tape or something as a marker
-

Ok ! zero leaks ! Ran it for a few minutes then opened hose to max . Not a drop . I will cement the joints then wait for 5 years time that ‘brown drip’ on my head ... ??
-
Going to water test it now ?
-
Some of them aren’t inserted fully . The problem was the 2 tees needed ‘adjusting’ simultaneously to fit . If I do One bit and let it set it Won’t line up with the other Bit . I was reluctant to glue it all with a ‘tick tock’ over my head but couldn’t see any other way of doing it
-
Fecking star ⭐️ Didn’t even know that existed . Yes I’ll do it on all those joints just as a precaution .
-
Ok . I had to glue 4 joints all at once to get this to fit . Tried it dry was tricky anyway . Given I have about 30 seconds top I did ok - but some of the joints aren’t as tight as they should be . Is this ‘ok ‘ ? . Will water test in 30 mins . Assume some CT1 around all joints would do no harm . Second lesser issue . The thicker 50mm white pipe was going to be my AAV run that I wanted to boss strap after the toilet ( end of the drain ) . Can’t see how I can do that now . I can fit it after the toilet ( but before anything else ) - is this likely to cause issues ?
-
Appreciated. It’s reassuring when someone says it’s ok . I pretended to attempt to sit on the loo - and it’s seemed ok . No good for @Onoff mind - lardy arse .

The sink to the left would have a 10mm gap . Moving it right just to centre the mirrored wall unit . Can’t have wall unit off centre to the sink
-
I need to shift the sink 25mm to the right . Wall unit is 55cm wide . Those upright edge to edge are exactly 55cm apart . So with tile backer , adhesive , tile I need to gain 25mm So sink would be about 10mm over the geberit frame ...

Spirit level on floor represents shower tray edge ... Funny how a relatively large ensuite shrinks !!!!
-
Skinny asses ! Not sure what you mean . That rear wall is a false wall . Too the right of the WC will be a shower enclosure .
-
How much can I move right ? Can I go right to the edge of the geberit frame ? My next problem now is recessed mirror requires cutting out that vertical timber the frame is attached to . How do I cut it vertically off but still have the frame supported strongly ?
-
What about this ? Just feels really tight on the left . Once I board ( just tile backer ) and then tile . Also got to fit a recessed mirror unit above it .
-
Knob !!! can go left of the Wc but makes unit quite tight to the wall !!! What a bomb brain !
-
Oh bollocks ! i was desperate to get a small sink for the ensuite But Its in the way of the WC !! What a #*% I am ! ?
-
I always thought this was a dark blackish colour . I ordered a bathroom vanity unit ages ago and just opened it . Box says anthracite - unit looks ‘grey’ - is this right ???
