Bathroom update

[vadiro]

Hi,
I am planing to update the bathroom in the house we just moved in and I would need some advice, please.

I would like to tile the floor and the walls and to fit a towel radiator, but before that I wonder if it will be needed to make any changes regarding the pipes.
I attached some pictures:

Yes ,you will need to alter some pipes.

It depends on the new suite you'll be fitting, if your planning on doing that as well. It also depends on whether you want to hide the pipework or leave it on show.

You'll have to alter the radiator pipework as a minimum.

Thank you.

I am planing to fit a combined toilet sink unit, so the pipework on that side should got hidden. It would worth to make them more tidy in a way or another?

Regarding the radiator, what are you saying is that the pipes should get in the wall, right?

On the other hand, should I be worried that the whole house pipework it's a few dozens years old?

They won't be seen inside a unit anyway so no need. The cold will need altered and you'll need to run a hot to it as well.

Or up through the floor. Either way they pipes will need to be altered to suit.

No need to worry.
