hi there.
I've just purchased a house. It has an internal soil stack which passes vertically through the house and emerges through the flat roof whereupon it vents.
Currently, the bathroom is on the top floor and the waste connects directly into that soil stack (which is boxed in).
I want to move the bathroom to the neighbouring bedroom.
I am fine running a new waste horizontally between the joists to connect to the existing stack.
However, I would rather move the upper part of the stack to the new bathroom to make more space in the old room.
Please see attached pic.
Is this possible?
The horizontal runs are fine in the joists as they are running in the same direction and there is plenty of space for the necessary drop.
Would really appreciate thoughts.
