I want to add a 3/4 bath to my finished basement area. I would like to frame in the bathroom where a closet is currently located because it is very close to the main drain. The drain services the main floor bath directly above this downstairs closet and is vented through the roof. I would like to fit everything into an area of 5ft x 9ft that will require as little cutting into the floor as possible but still be functional. I also would like to hide the vent pipe in a small linen closet or framed in chase.

I've done just about all types of construction and remodeling except for rough-in plumbing. I really need help with the whole layout and rough-in and after that I should be fine to do the rest of the construction. I pretty sure that I am going to put in an electric heated floor and tile and maybe tile in the shower instead of an enclosure. A drawing or diagram would be easiest for me to follow but I appreciate any and all help. I am including pictures of the space to show what I have to work with.

Thanks.

Let me show you a typical, (in my area) bathroom group rough in. This configuation only uses one vent for the entire group.
4" ,(under cement and basements) 3" (on first and second floor) from the toilet to the main. The lavatory to connect to the toilet drain line and vent to the roof or revent back in the attic to a existing roof vent. The tub/shower to connect to the lavatory drain line and will be wet vented by it as will the toilet. Be advised to always check local codes before changing or remodeling your drainage system. Good luck, Tom

Hi Tom,

Thanks for your quick answer. When you said "Let me show you" did you intend to include a drawing or image or was that a figure of speech?

Thanks
