Hi,
Here's a photo of my current DIY project in my ensuite...
I've got a couple of plumbing jobs I need to do and wondered if you could tell me how I can empty the pipes of water and shut off the supplies while I work on them?
1. There's a feed to the toilet next to the waste stack.
2. There's a hot water tap supply that's running down the house.
All I'm looking to do it to re-route these pipes into the wall so that I can put the toilet and sink back on wall and have the supplies coming from the walls rather than floor.
I've got an easy access point to my house mains water supply in the street. Previously when I've shut this off (to shut the shower down) I've still had a gentle flow of water coming from it.... is there something else I need to do?
And I've never had a go at doing hot tap supplies.... yet!
Thanks for your help.
