    About to submit some drainage plans to building regs so I was hoping that the wonderful people on here would give some views on what they would likely object to as it's easier to make changes before submitting than after. Assuming the gradients are within spec does anything look out of place...

    Macerator Building Regs

    Hi All, I've been asked to quote for installing an en-suite. The proposed location for the new WC makes it nigh on impossible to connect to the soil pipe. So it's a macerator to get the waste away. My question is, do Building Regs need notifying for this installation? I know they do if I was to...
