Tini 0 Report post Posted March 10, 2014 Can a toilet bowl be shifted to a new position?Does the plumber need to get permit from hdb?I'm in the process of renovating my 3 room resale flat. I coverted the toilet from squaring to a sitting. The plumber have already install my new toilet but neglected to advise me that I won't be able to seat comfortably. My knee is hitting the wall across and I would have to literarily open my legs wide in order to seat on the toilet. I'm getting my ID and plumber to change the position of the toilet bowl to face the door rather than across the wall. Now I'm wondering if this is legal and if I would face any issues in the long run like choking of the drainage?Need all the advise I could get. Thank youI will try to post a picture just not sure how to do it here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cos the all toilet bowl pipes are already in place below each unit by HDB.u can see ur above unit's toilet bowl piping in your toilet.Hope this helps..

Cheaper choice, maybe to choose a smaller size toilet bowl. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
