Hi, I need to chase two 15mm copper pipes in to the wall to feed a bath shower above a bath. The wall is an external wall, with this in mine will they need lagging?

Wrap the pipe in some duck tape or electrical tape, and nail clip in. Try and use soldered fittings. Regards robiow
 
Thanks so no need for insulating the pipes? with it being chased in to the plaster on an external wall?

I used expanding foam around my pipes. Wet the surfaces with a water spray as it helps with curing and adhesion. When dry, I cut it back to below the wall surface, primed with pva and plastered. I'd guess you'll be tiling over the chases anyway.
