Design Your Bathroom

poisonous_tree_frog asked:


OR can I re-route the drain to enter from the side?
My bathroom sink is located in a corner with the back to an outside wall. The builders installed the the drain pipe to come up through an interior wall to the right hand side and turn the corner 90 degrees to get into the outside wall so that the drain could approach the sink from the back. This sink clogs constantly due to all the angles - I have to remove the trap and clean the pipe in the wall every four months and the smell from the pipe clog is horrible, like straight sewer gas. I would like to know that if I tear off the drywall and route the drain to come from the interior wall straight to the drain, to remove the 90 degree turn in the outside wall, if it would still meet code?

In the picture the Pink represents the CURRENT drain and the white tape represents what I want to do.
the house was built in 1979 and I don’t know what they were thinking when they did this.

I’m trying to get an old sink and vanity out to replace it with a new one, but in using a pry bar I dented the drywall and nearly put a hole in the wall. Any tips or ideas would be appreciated.

I’m selling my house and the bathroon sink is in really bad shape and can’t be replaced, I guess, without tearing out all the tile and drywall. I did the one in my other bathroom and I ain’t doing that again. So, can I
get by with one of the kits. And how much work does it really take? The top overflow drain has rusted out, and thats really what I need to work on.
