Hi helpfull people
I have a gas pipe under kitchen units coming up through concrete kitchen floor about 15cm from outside wall, it then bends over hot and cold water pipes then continues to run up the wall to boiler.
I'm just planning a new kitchen and this pipe in bang in the footprint of where I want the washing machine ( no other options )
What I would like to do is redirect pipe so it runs up to boiler behind the plasterboard wall, giving me the space i need to fit washing machine.
No problem moving the water pipes, but not sure what I can and can't do with this gas pipe.
Can I dig the floor around gas pipe, trace it back to where it hopefully comes under/through the wall and redirect it behind plasterboard wall?
Obviously this would mean cutting the pipe and re-coupling with suitable fitting.
Anyone know what I can/should do?
Cheers.
