Importing bathroom suites
Jun 5^th, 2005, 6:08pm

I'm building a house in the UK but I live in Belgium. Prices this site of the channel seem to be slightly cheaper but it's hard to tell as the makes are different.

I was thinking of importing some bathroom items like a washbasin and WC. Anyone aware of any problems?

I know years ago you were only allowed to install syphon type cisterns. Is that still the case? Any similar problems?
