We are thinking of re-arranging our bathroom layout which will mean moving
the toilet onto another wall, this will mean the waste pipe being extended
by about ten feet and also turning a corner. Will there be a problem if we
do this, looking around other houses they seem to have the toilet next to
the stack so the pipe work is as short as possible.



Yes, you may well have a problem, since there needs to be quite a fall
on a soil pipe to ensure the turds get sped on their way.

This often mens the pipe needs to go down throughh the floor and join to
the waste downpipe at a lower level.

Or use of a saniflo macerator pump, which cannot cope with anything
solid that anyone may inadvertently drop down the loo.
