Kitchen project inc. 1 wall in and 1 wall out

[pjl83]

Just a drain in the corner. Same one that the stack drops down too with the bathroom wastes. The pipe goes straight through the wall at the height it is now through the existing hole that the old one came out of.

I know its to late now mate, you try and keep behind dishwasher, washing machine, fridge freezers clear as possibly. I think if you can't drop the waste then ,I would go with a wider worktop and set your units off the wall fixed to some battens.
Wait till morning when you got everything and you will have a better idea Any problems there are plenty of good people on here who will help you.

Ok thanks.

Like you say, I'll have a look tomorrow and see how it works out.

[pjl83]

I've been thinking about this all night now. If it does need moving then its not a big job. I can get it down to floor level as it goes out and both appliances have a cupboard or drawer unit next to them. I can hire a core drill from down the road and just move everything along a bit to the left. Then the waste of each appliance can pass through sideways to behind the next unit where the pipe will be waiting. Simples! I hope

When I did integrated dishwasher and washing machine I put the waste stand pipes in the void behind the adjoining cabinet. This worked fine as it was easy to position the integrated appliance and feed the waste pipes into the stand pipe. If you have an adjacent sink you can avoid the standpipe and plumb the wastes into a multi inlet waste trap like this http://www.wickes.co.uk/1-12in-sink-p-t ... t/226994/I

Good work by the way

Thanks DWD. The sink isn't close though so adjacent cupboards will be the answer if there is an issue. ;-)

The rep has been back once since as there are some bits missing and some we don't really know what they're for. Lol

Just got the 3 lengths of un-oiled oak worktop into the garage as the thunder storm came over. Perfect timing! ;-)

Sounds about right for howdens I would think about covering you floor mate, also check your water connection don't fail as well
You are going to be a very busy bee

[pjl83]

It does need dropping. :-(

The water is fine, as long as I have the dishwasher feed pointing down, though I might just move that as well whilst I'm at it.

Lowered - lower than a low thing!

That was hard work. Even with a diamond tip core drill from the hire shop.

Good job!! The project is coming along nicely!

As mentioned...that's typical from Howden's! Extras parts, missing parts, codes not tying up etc To be fair, they do seem to sort things out without too much hassle.

Keep the updates coming!!

[pjl83]

Thanks. To be fair they had it sorted about 4 hours after delivering. That included sending a rep to come and decide the multiple delivery notes.

Fair play to them!

Good couple of day's in the kitchen. The plumbing is now on version 3 but I'm confident we're all clear now.

My father-in-law has been helping in the evenings. Tonight we got the corner all set up and fixed in to the point where the worktops could be marked up. he's taken the 2 pieces away with him. He'll get the cut and joined at work. Tomorrow I've got the sink waste to do, fix a cupboard back and plumb in the dish washer.

[getthewheelsinline]

Forgot to ask - what was the make of the tiles?
Cheers.
