    Soil pipe inlet too high for toilet pan

    I'm replacing a toilet pan & the current install has a pan connected to the soil pipe with a flexi wate, but the pan exit is almost 100% lower than the soil pipe entry. Short of setting the pan on plinth, what would be the correct install?

    Soil pipe through tile hung wall

    I need to take a soil pipe through a vertical tile hung gable wall at my own house, does anyone know the best way of sealing it and making a good job of cutting the tiles?
