used mlcp for my upstairs bathroom rad installs, used geberit press chrome pipe tails. used mlcp because roll ends left over from ufh install. Already have a press tool, so found and bought the required jaw from ebay. That said, I'm not sure I'd go out my way to specifically install mlcp, I only did to get rid of them 15-20m sections of pipe I had left over!

Better!

what the feck on earth is that?

Same, what they going to do if you forget the digger isn’t a zero tail swing jobbie and you accidentally take out a wall, then because safety reasons the whole structure had better come down.

I was thinking 100mm from hob, 300 from sink.

Would it still need to be plugged if there is a water seal in the drain trap?

22*75/100mm strips of timber perpendicular to the joists @ 400mm centres with packers to make a flat level surface, 75mm/100mm so there’s plenty of scope for not being just so with measurements for board endings. Or you could use res bar and pack out, or mf5 top hat and pack out.

Multitool with metal blade and cut each side of the cable into the grommet holes on either top or bottom whichever is easiest one cable out then the box will come out and the other cable will feed out. Or cut away more plaster and slowly tease and feed the cable backward into a U shape on the outer side of the box and pull slowly and gently try not to snag the cable and hope the rubber grommet protects against the sharp edges. There will be some making good required but that’s par for the course I’m afraid!

I agree with the man that says loctite 55 🤣, wrap it, tighten it, back it off so it points in the right direction job's a goodun. That said, not tried it with metal into hdpe.

Nice, I like this a lot

Can that section of floor be cut lifted and shimmed level? Would be my first thought. If not then slc over ply appears to be the method I read about most often. Only a DIY’er so take my thoughts with a pinch of salt

just to clarify for me, or to confirm, now that the picture shows more, you wanted to plumb the toilet into the the fitting into the cap? So the location of the pan will be there. And all that will be behind boxing when completed, yes? If that's the case I think there's a definately a way you can reconfigure that so you can bring the toilet exit horizontally with a slight fall and have the vertical stack interface so it doesnt impede or interupt the flush. Haven't got my crayons but that's where my mind is heading

Keep going, you’ll get there!

I’m sure I’ve read on here that others have lashed something up that resembles an access ramp to get through building control, then when building control have duly signed off, you can remove and get on with life!

if you can lay your hands on a big fan (machine mart), a sheet of osb or similar, cut osb to fit one of your window openings, cut a hole for the fan. Fan on full whack pointing outside, you’ll soon start to depressurise the house, then stick radio on and wander round finding sources of ingress.
