Hello All,
Having our kitchen refitted and looking to replace the stop cock before putting the new unit next to it and cutting a hole in the side so it still remains accessible. The house was built c.1970 and the stop cock is (as far as I am told) ½” BSP type. The water main that comes in through the clay pipe is black plastic as below picture. I am able to turn the water off in the street.
What is the best procedure for replacing this and what would I need? Should I take the stop cock off and take it into Plumb Center etc?
Thanks in advance!!
