Buying a ground floor maisonette which the surveyor has noted as having concrete floors. Originally would have been normal suspended.
Problem is is that currently all cables and 90% of ch pipework is buried in it.
What would be normal course of action assuming I wanted to renew it all. The flat is full of bodges and the chances of the pipework being protected correctly and lasting for another 20 years is almost zero.
Is chasing it all out out of the question and is surface run my only option?
Ive got a massive pet hate about surface pipe work but would be interested to hear from installers that do this sort of work everyday.
Cheers
