Hi all. Hooing for some advice on a shallow trap. The waste goes to a gulley.

Either for a small height shower tray or to cut out the screed for a wetroom and backfill with the correct fall to drains.

Thanks
 
Chop the floor out unless it’s block and beam
 
You should be fine then as your only going into the concrete 2” ish
 
What do you do about cutting through the damp proof course though? How wrap bitumen or something around?

How has your 2nd lockdown been Shaun?

If you have to go through it cut it in the centre and push it down to make room for the trap
get some new dp and tap it in

hope it makes sense
