Want to remove the toilet in our kitchen

Hello,

We currently have a WC in our kitchen downstairs and I want to remove it to make the kitchen bigger.

Does anyone have experience of this? Is it difficult? Do I have to get planning permission?

How much do you think that it will cost?

    you dont need PP. i did my own some 20 yrs ago now. cost me virtually nowt.
    a bit of plastering after knocking the wall down. and then final decorating.
    had to move some pipes and a light switch.

    as for costs? i suppose approx 250/500 should be enough.
    not including any decoration and a possible rubbish skip.
    Get some gorm.
  • Thanks a lot.

    We will also have to get a new kitchen so I will look into that as well.

    I assume you mean a WC opening off a kitchen?
