toilet

Hi, I'm looking for some advice / guidance on a project we are considering. We are considering putting a new utility and toilet space downstairs. In order to do this we would need to run the waste pipes backwards, circa 2 metres, to join the existing waste drainage which joining waste from...

Pretty self explanatory title, but when we flush our toilet it causes the plug in our bath to bubble, and let’s out a bad smell. Vice versa, when we empty the bath the toilet makes a noise. They aren’t even in the same room, as our toilet is separate from the bathroom. We have a plumber...

Hi, I want to change my toilet, a grohe bau which constantly blocks. My outlet is vertical into the floor basically. Distance between wall and vertical outlet is 10cm to the centre of the pipe. Do i need to get a vertical toilet pan outlet, not many exist but available for better performance or...

My house was ment to have a wc downstairs im looking to install a toilet and sink, as far as im aware the soil stack has been bunged with rags and skimmed over, will I have to replace the soil stack compleatly of is there a connector i can connect to the original soil pip to do this, all the...

I wonder whether anyone can help. About 5 years ago I replaced our cloakroom toilet and chose a Tavistock Structure Back to the wall toilet with soft-close lid. Since I installed it the soft close hasn't been that effective, so during lock-down I thought I'd remove the seat and see if there...

We have installed a high level cistern with copper pipe water supply (we prefer the look of this to a flexible connector) but the compression nut wont screw onto the male plastic inlet and is ruining the thread. When the water supply is turned on, we get a leak! What do we need to do...

Hi all, Our main toilet is embedded to the unit and I can't get my hand down underneath the bolts to undo the seat? I'm guessing it can be fixed/undone from the top somehow but I can't work out how to do it? I wondered if there was a plastic flap covering screws or something but I don't want...

Bit of a whiffy one this - not for the faint-hearted - maybe leave til later if you're about to have your dinner. Long story short - we noticed an eggy smell kept appearing in the kitchen and wondered if there was a problem with the drains. Still not sure we've got to the (ahem) bottom of that...

Got one of those flexible shower hose type toilet hoses. Instead of a gun attachment it just had a small nozzle but that has now been accidentally flushed down the toilet (don't ask, no idea). Looked everywhere online but can't find a replacement nozzle, either separately or as part of a set...

I have another one for you if youre willing So when I put together that assembly behind the jacks I forgot to fit a small extension collar to bring it to the height of the toilet outlet so now i have this I meant to fit this but forgot... beneath the branch connector behind the toilet seen...

Hi there. In the process of removing LOVELY pink WC. But it's cemented into clay pipe. What do I do here? The pipe is around 200mm wide so can't just cut it put a pan connector as they are 147mm. Should I keep the collar and cut away cement and cement the new pan connector in? I've got diamond...

I have to build a 1m height false wall to hide the toilet cistern. I only got 200mm. How would you place your 4x2?

Ok guys first post here and I need some help. We moved in to our 1965 5 bed hone about 6 weeks ago. It had been empty for about a year prior to our move. the downstairs toilet/cloakroom (built with the house) has quite a nasty smell about it. We have checked all the p-pipes and looked for leaks...

Hi, Our toilet is running water into the pan constantly. It seemed easy to fix: Remove the 'flush' and replace with a new one... So I bought a new flush ('universal fitting') but can not install it for the life of me. I've had to put the old one back and now it leaks worse! I can't fit it...

I need to replace a bottom-entry fill valve but there are a few things I'm not sure about. Firstly... the existing (original) valve is a Roca one, and I'm having trouble identifying exactly which part it is because there seem to be at least a couple of different variants out there that look...

Hi, I would like to fit a closed couple toilet to replace the rather bulky old style one. My main worry is that in the past I’ve had one fitted by a plumber and the cistern ended up about 30mm from the wall. At the moment the front of the 90deg pan connector is 160mm from the wall and the centre...

I'm hoping to move a toilet about 1m further along the same outside wall. Unfortunately the place where the waste would ideally go through the outside wall is right in the middle of a brick arch (over the window downstairs) and I'm keen not to drill a big hole in it. Is it sensible to have a...

I plumbed my toilet a few days ago and everything appeared to be fine. No leaks, everything seems to work. Today I was wiping the floor and found just a little bit of water around the base of the back of the toilet, see photo. First I thought it could be the pan connector, but it's fitted...

I'm at the final stages of plumbing in my bathroom, I'm a beginner. As you can see in the photo I have this space saving pan connector, then I have a length of 110mm pipe. I didn't really need this as I'll box it in, and I had black 110mm anyway. Is this the correct way to do it? Pan...

Hi Purchase a new toilet and installing it but having issues with cistern not level. I’ve levelled the base as floor was out of level but the cistern is not level to the toilet. This only bolts on with two bolts (1 either side) and has a rubber washer in between the cistern and pan on the bolts...
