  • Wow! That`s great! But.. who knows what sort of problems I can have if I do this myself (with no plumber license). I can do this due to overseas license, experience and, I`m an engineer. I don`t want pay thousands dollars for an easy jobs. Thank you for your advises

  • Technically, by cutting the 40mm sanitary waste pipe you have illegally altered the sanatiry pipe system, which under the law is only allowed to be altered by a suitably qualified practitioner licensed by the PGDB. But im just splitting hairs here.
    If you want to do it correctly, dont cut the pipe and just lift the whole vanity off the pipe

  • As this seems to be geared to an audience on the east side of the pond, you really should add a few of disclaimers for your US viewers. 1) you say permits would not be required - As permitting requirements in the US are set by individual jurisdictions there is no way to make that claim. One town may require a permit while their neighboring city may not, 2) licensed plumbers may or may not be required - there are areas here where there are no plumbers licensing requirements. 3) "S" traps were removed from all US plumbing codes about 50 years ago. Cannot believe these are still acceptable on your side, how is the waste line vented? Best Wishes

  • let's free up the space under the vanity so we can put exposed stuff under it!

  • Very useful series. But worth bearing in mind that in NZ council regulations went out of the door nearly 30 years ago. It's now down to the national building code, which the council just happens to administer.
