Frodo; will you be able to work a vent somewhere for the future kitchen change?
bedrooms upstairs.

And here is the laundry drain. I just realized that the dishwasher is also tied into this. It is a portable dishwasher, but Jeff hooked it up like a permanent where the sink will eventually go. It has worked well and I don't have to block the sink every time the dishwasher runs.
is that pipe in the ground a hub ?
if it is, is it a 2'' hub or a 3'' hub
2'' is going to be about 4'' across and 3'' will be about 5'' 4'' will be around 6''
cause its bigger than the actual pipe
replace waste stack 6'' above floor to ceiling of 1st floor.. around $500.00
this is without putting a pencil to anything,
is the ceiling of the bathroom being removed and replaced?
I missed this earlier. So you don't recommend replacing entire waste stack, all the way through second floor bath?
Why don’t you keep the bathroom set up as is and put the new door coming in from the mud room?
I would think if you are outside and need the bathroom it would seem quite normal having the door right there. To me it seems odd walking thru the kitchen into the laundry room and down a hall to get in the bath. Often when we have company we are in the kitchen cooking etc and guests have to go around us for the bathroom. You have a natural place for the door with a lot less work and cost and your utility room won’t be broken up into 3 areas. You would get your nice long wall in the kitchen. I would add a door to the utility room if you don’t have one now.
Just my thoughts after seeing the new and old layouts.
in the plan you posted, the future lay out. the cabinet, that sits next to the washer. is that going to be a half wall?
or just the end of a cabinet. i ask because. if it is a half wall, and it is not on the slab, but on the edge of it. we could put a drain washer box in that half wall, instead of draining into the basement
If you change the stack up the the ceiling in the lower bathroom the rest could be changed out with the upper reno when it is done.
