    Rerouting toilet drain in a second floor condo, would like to move the toilet 2 feet?
    Hi All,
    I just purchased a condo and would like to reposition the toilet about two feet to make room for a tub and separate shower. I am on the second floor of a 3 story condo unit built in 1982. It is cinderblock and stucco and I assume concrete slabs between each floor. I know I will need to get this through the Home Owners Association and think it may be a battle due to the potential of interfering with my neighbors above drainage. I just want to know if it is feasible at this point or should I redraw my plans?

    Yes it's doable but before you do anything run this past the Condo Association.
    This won't impact you as much as it will your first floor neighbor since it's his bathroom ceiling that will be torn up to get at your drainage.
    What do you wish to install that requires you to move your toilet. Good luck Tom
