Cost of installing 2nd toilet on 2nd level of landed

Recommended Posts

Hi, anyone know how I can assess if 2nd level of a landed can install a 2nd toilet? Current configuration only got 1. And rough estimate on how much it will cost?

Thanks!

it depends on how much work needs to be done and where you want to install the 2nd toilet. the toilets on upper storey needs to channel the waste down to lower storey and into the waste/sewer pipes. so if your 2nd toilet isn't that far from the current one, you can possibly join back the waste pipe for this new toilet to the existing one for the original toilet. if there's beams in the way, you may have to drop the pipes a bit lower to clear the beams and later use plaster board to box up or hide these pipes inside the false ceiling.

another option is to run a new down pipe to connect to the first storey and then add new waste pipe inside the first storey floor and connect it to the IC for your house. this option would be more expensive since you need to hack the first storey floor and IC to connect the new waste pipe.

do also note that all toilets waste pipes need to be vented. so you would most likely need to add a vent pipe which punches through the roof for this new toilet unless you can join the vent pipe to the existing main vent pipe somehow.
