I have fitted central heating and I have 15mm copper pipework running down various bare brick walls in my house.

I plan to get them plasterboarded over, dot and dab.

My question is how best to carry this out ?

How do I protect my pipework from corrosion? I've seen the DENSO tape talked about on here, but with all the pipework inplace it will be hard to fit!!

Is there a special paint I could use over the pipes ? Or is some felt/DPC between the pipes and walls sufficient.

Starting to wish I had planned to box them in, in the corners of the room, but too late now !

All advice appreciated.

Cheers

Paul

Cover with duct tape then fit a half metal conduit over them for a bit more protection from picture hanging etc :eek:
