Hi all, hopefully attached picture is clear. I don't have enough space to get down and across from my wc outlet to the waste tee on floor. The tee in floor is the push fit type with the rubber ring inside, so I'd need to pipe it as well, before getting a flexi in. Anyway, flexi just won't work. Too close. What I'm wondering is whether the following would work. If I cut the tee just after the push fit part of the joint, am I left with a standard 110mm that I could push my flexi into? Would that work? Any other suggestions? Cheers

Doesn't the toilet want to go back more or is it near final position??
 
Could you pull the tee out the floor push fit joint and use a piece of pipe with a socket on one end to raise the tee slightly higher

And then re do your basin waste

Unfortunately not. I've solvent welded the waste behind tiled wall, and the tiling actually comes down on top of tee. This was all deliberate so I didn't need to build a bulkhead. Now I'm finding out why a bulkhead makes life easier

How much roughly do you need to make up?
 
To meet what's there, I need to go left 80mm and drop about 50. Problem with the flexi is I can't get it to take the shape I need over such a short distance.
 
Interesting, who else here if in that situation (although I'd have used a jubilee pan con paul) would high strength silicone the pan connector in after fitting for peice of mind?
Ive seen a few which start to creep out over the years and can drop off if the toilet is plungered.
 
Plumber mait for me to allow for tiny amounts movement.

Seems a bit of a bodge but I guess time will tell.

ShaunCorbs idea sounded pretty good
