Hello I am looking into buying a ground floor flat in W. London, but only if I can relocate a kitchen from the back (room A) to front of the building (room B). There are no visible waste pipes at the front or side of the house. Actually , my situation is very similar to this old post below, but in my case it is a semi, so a waste pipe can run outside. However, the run to the red X will be 9 metres + 90 degrees bend + 4 metres. Do you think that it is mad? How much fall will I need?
I researched how to increase the fall, does using a 10cm taller custom sink cabinet and compact integrated dishwasher at higher level (Fisher & Paykel Drawer or Neff S66M63N1GB) make sense? Also, thinking Sanivite, hmmm.
Please, be patient with my terminology, I only developed 3 properties in the past. I was lucky with layouts and never had to move plumbing, just updated fixtures. I can't bring professional plumber to the property and have to make a decision in two days. Any ideas or criticism will be humbly appreciated! Tony
PS Tried to add link to the old similar post, but it didn't work. It's called "Moving a Kitchen from One End of a flat to the other..."

Welcome to the forums Tony.
I`ll put my tuppence worth in tomorrow re the Sanivite.
 
I 'd say it's not for you...I assume you want to flip this flat into 3 bedrooms by converting what appears to be a narrow poorly lit store room into a kitchen? Anything is possible with enough money but if B is barely 1.5m wide(enough room for units on one side only by the looks of it)I'd want to consult an architect as you have potentially a lot of other space there that could possibly be reconfigured given more time.
 
Only fit a pump such as the Sanivite when you have no other option, research their limits and keep inside the limits with a safety buffer (ie you don`t drive with the rev counter in the red do you!). Tenants abuse them so research for service engineers and costs before deciding.

Hi all. Hope you have all been keeping well. A while back I decided I only wanted to fit one brand of boiler and decided on Viessmann due to space for servicing and changing parts if ever needing to. I am finding my decision rather hard due to the different clearances on flue runs and cupboards...

I was stupid enough not to check the position of the pipes under the tiles when installing a toilet and drilled right through the center of a 16 mm copper water pipe. I exposed the pipe by removing a ~30cm section of the plastic sleeve and a ~10 cm section of the pipe around the hole. Several...
