Hi,

Some advice would be welcome. We’re tile a kitchen breakfast bar that has a radiator on and it’s original pipes.

It was once the kitchen wall, it hasn’t been replaced and we’d like to tile to the floor or there abouts. How would you negotiate and tile to or around these pipes? Or rearrange the pipes? The rad will move to the left approx 300mm too. Tile approx 12 mm thick, example attached.

(I’ve just gone to post and see that I haven’t included a pic with the pipes revealed! They’re behind the protruding skirt, I’ll add a pic this evening).

Thanks

As the pipes look to be easily accessible I would remove rad and pipework, tile and then refit rad and replumb.
