Toilet waste pipe - floor mounted!

In my downstairs loo, we wish to replace the existng WC and do something to cover the clay waste pipe and enable floor tiling to take place. We currently have a non coupled WC/Cistern, which I am assuming will have to be the same - unless we created a false wall to hang the cystern, or dig up and move the exisitng. So a relatively easy question.... That is the best way to replace the loo and is there anything in particular (ie a name) that I need to ask for? Everywhere I look, all I ever see are WCs with waste pipes coming out to meet a wall. The exisiting one has an upsidedown U bend to take it to the floor - with no flexability. I am obviously also concerned about removing this pipe - since damagiing the exisiting clay fitting, is likely to be expense (I would think!) Any helpful advise appreciated. They are called P trap and S trap bogs. You have an S trap and all the new ones are P trap. |
