Basement Bathroom

Here is the layout design for the basement bathroom.

Here you can see my first cut into the basement floor.
I cut in around where the original toilet was and this is what I found.

You can see the original toilet and sink drains.

The pipe in behind is the floor drain.

Here you can see where the existing toilet drain attaches to the main.

Here is the new plumbing showing the shower and sink drainage.

Here you can see where the 4 inch drain attaches to the main.

This picture is showing the toilet drain connected to the main.

The shower drain again. In behind you can see the old laundry sink drain.

Filling things back in.

Get ready to pour some concrete next.

Here is the concrete.

Another view

And another view of the toilet drain.

Here is the bathroom with the dricore flooring down. Notice that the shower is farther back now. Moved it closer to the back wall.

Another view of the shower. You can see the 2 inch vent pipe (added) for venting the shower and kitch sink. I'll use the old laudry drain for the kitchen sink drain.

The toilet drain. Had to redo the concrete around this drain in order to get the hight right for fastening the toilet flange to the floor. Note to self - read ahead.

A view from the bathroom door.

Added 3/4 inch plywood over top of the dricore in order to strengthen the floor for a tile installation. Still need to screw down the floor into the concrete.
