As you can see in the picture I am changing the position of the bath tub and the position of the sink.
After asking around here I have come to the conclusion that I probably have a drain and a vent somewhere in a wall that I was planning to remove (shown replaced with a pane of glass in the second picture)
The third picture shows what I am assuming is the drain that I would like to reroute in order to conceal it in the wall for its basement portion. Is it possible to install a fitting that would push the lower segment of the drain into the exterior wall? so I can hide it ?
I am planning to hire a plumber for this (not sure how expensive and difficult this should be) but before doing that I want an engineer opinion on the pros and cons for doing this
Any help will be much appreciated
Here is the current layout
and here is the new layout
and here is how I believe that the drain is positioned
it also explains the existing wall between the toilet and the bath tub
this wall is blocking the light and it uselessly segments the space in the room
Update after demolishing the wall between the toilet and the sink
Existing route for the pipes
New route for the pipes
so basically I would like to runt the drain and the pipe along the wall and then when they reach the floor
reroute them back to enter the floor where they used to. I will conceal that in a box that will sit between
the toilet and the bath tub. (the brown box in the picture)
