The drain is the hardest part of putting a bathroom into a basement. Depending on when your house was built, you might have an extra drain somewhere that was pre-placed for exactly this purpose, but if you don't, you'll have to find some way to connect to your existing drain. This may involve breaking up some of the concrete to gain access to it at a lower point than is available.


This was what I was afraid of. Am I correct in assuming that I'd have to somehow have the drainage lower than the draining point of the toilet and the shower? Cause if so then that's going to be a problem. I know where the drainage pipe is, but it's higher than the floor in the basement.
