Its people like you who cause heating engineers nightmares.

Why not buck the trend and make ALL pipework and shower connections accessible?

I once saw this poor fellow who had to repair a motor valve BEHIND a cylinder. He had to make a hole in the wall to access it from the next room!

There are many good makes of shower out there. I always fit the Mira Excel, Grohe are another good make and I believe from on here Aqualisa is as well.

Chase the wall out and wrap your pipes to protect them. You need to know what shower you will be fitting first so you can set the pipes the correct distance apart for the shower.

Oh and don't forget to test for leaks by blanking the pipes off and making live before plastering. Also flush out pipe work well before fitting shower, in case any debris has got in them.
