I am remodeling a bathroom and 2 36" vanitiys were located on either end of an 8' wall, with the drain rough-ins 18" from the side walls. In the remodel, we are locating smaller vanitys off the centerline of the 8' wall to give a free standing furniture look. On center of the wall will be a drawer cabinent with the sink vantys on either side. The sizes of the cabinet & vanitys first propsed by the little lady will not even cover the existing rough-in drain & supply lines. If we go with wider sink vanitys, I'lll at least covver the existing rough-ins, but the drain will be on the outer edge of the cabinet. Is this a workable condition?
If I move the drains & supplys inboard toward the centerline of the 8' wall, my lack of experience is in moving the drains. Since this bath is on the 2nd floor, I assume the PVC drains drop straight down. Is this just a matter of putting in ~ 16" horizontal run & then econnecting to the vertical drops, or is more involved? Guidance is needed here. I know this is premature to be asking what to do before the wall is opened up, but I'm trying to gain knowledge to discuss this with the little lady beforehand. Even though I tore out most of the drywall, I wasn't planning to do it on the vanity wall. Poor me.
So, can I offset the drains in the cabinet base or are we talking major drain relocation in the walls.
Thanks guys, FJK
