For those on a budget, there are ways of concealing your bathroom pipes without breaking the bank. Below, we’ve gathered a few methods to cover pipes in a bathroom affordably: Break all the existing pipework down to ground level where, at some point under the surface you will see that the soil and vent pipe is connected to a clay pipe which will take it to the nearest foul drainage manhole. If you’re thinking of attempting any DIY work, we ask you to think about the risks associated with bad repairs – not to mention the extra costs involved when it comes to correcting any mistakes. If you’re in any doubt about taking on a task, we highly recommend hiring a local expert your neighbours know and trust.

Although cast iron pipes can be drilled to accept a new waste pipe and can also be ground down to accept a 100mm waste pipe collar, it is ultimately cheaper, in most circumstances, to change the cast iron pipes for a new plastic soil and vent system.

Water and waste pipes are an inevitable, and essential, part of your bathroom. But, for many people, they are unsightly and can ruin the overall look and feel of your carefully designed bathroom. Hanging bathroom sinks look stunning and are a great way of saving space in a small bathroom. Unfortunately, these sinks will still need pipes to function which can take away from your carefully decorated bathroom. To get around this issue the end of a cut pipe should be filed to a shallow chamfer to make sure the pipe slides easily into the joint. You can see from the image above we have used a 4 inch grinding wheel to create our chamfer but this can easily be done with a rasp file or even a sheet of rough sand paper. Very often the only way to remove an old pipe is by brute force and hitting the cast iron with a lump hammer will shatter it relatively easily but will create dangerous shards of iron.

Joining Your Plastic Piping to the Clay Drainage Pipe

Let’s be honest, no one considers a toilet waste pipe to be glamorous. Wide and unattractive, these pipes carry out an essential job but are certainly not going to win any beauty contests. You’ll need a decent set of tools and some basic carpentry skills, but boxing in bathroom pipes is a job that the majority of people can handle. At the very least you’ll need a tape measure, nails, hammer and a saw, as well as suitable wood (such as MDF) to create the ‘box’. Today we’ll explain the different ways to hide your bathroom pipes. From boxing in to concealing pipes behind a wall, we’ve got you (and your pipes!) covered. With tips for anyone on a budget, as well as guidance for disguising toilet, waste and sink pipes. How to hide plumbing pipes in a bathroom

Bathroom furniture such as pedestal basins, wall hung toilets and enclosed baths all keep water and waste pipes firmly out of sight. Now slide on a 90 degree easy bend as seen in the below image and place the completed pipework into the hole in the wall.

The gas coming from it is harmful to our health. When the toilet pipe leaks, it releases a vast amount of toilet gas and a bad smell inside the bathroom. So, the vapor enters your body when you use the bathroom. To avoid health risks, you have to use a cover to prevent the pipe from leaking. Final thoughts Hiding those unsightly bathroom pipes in the wall is perhaps the most satisfying, yet unfortunately expensive, option.
