Hey guys, been working on a job plastering and they have asked me to put the bathroom suite in, when taking the old one out it was all lead so iv cut back on it all to the wall and will install new waste for the sink and bath

My issue is the toilet isn't in the same position but its about 4ft away so I might have to drill straight through the wall....

Either way iv got to connect to lead pipework, either on the outside of the building into the drain work that's there now or through the old waste

What is the best way to connect to lead and what fittings would i need? Also the pipework is needed for the toilet, so it will be approx 110mm

Thanks

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...
