I set out to replace a flush pipe on a back-to-the-wall toilet fitted professionally three yea4s ago. It had been cut too short and was leaking around the seal with the basin. Easy? Not so.

Visits to Screwfix, Wickes and other local stores all revealed flush pipes with an outside diameter of 38mm. My pipe is 38mm inside diameter and about 42 mm outside diameter.

What can I do?
 
OK, I owe you an apology. The two ends are different diameters - I measured the wrong pipe!

The cistern end has an inside diameter of 44mm and the toilet end has an internal diameter of 38 mm. Where do I get one of those?
