I'm trying to plan out an addition and the toilet is bothering me.
the pipe is going to come from the basement up the floor to an existing closet, then up to the addition.
its about 15ft(max) from pipe to closet in basement then straight up.
my contractor has it not being able to go no farther than 4ft, but I think he's taking one thing his plumber said and going with it, not listing to our reasons we don't want it there.
having the toilet 4ft in the room then the tube on the far wall is killing space and layout
the room added is going to be 28 long 18 wide. Toilet is also positioned about 13 to 15 ft from the left wall. Right in front of the door to the room(about... 4 ft up 0-2 ft left)
the room is going to contain a master bath and master closet. We want at least 15-20 ft of space in closet. I know...
after 300 sketches and figuring out with out moving the toilet we get a rooms that look like L's
I figure if the toilet could move 4 feet more the room would go from.
OLD= L rooms about 16 ft closet space and a close odd bathroom
NEW= Square rooms w/ about 20-30 ft closet space and a comfortable bath
the big problem is the fact we want a closet. The room where in now has about 15 ft of closet space so we would at least like to keep that other wise why spend the money when we could add another room elsewhere for other reasons .
thanks for any help
