32 mm compression on 35mm chrome

I would personally use Solvent weld under the floor.

+1 ...... certainly wouldn't ever use push fit anywhere underfloor, that's just a nightmare waiting to happen. Problem is now though that push fit pipe is PP/PB and can't be glued.

Can be ripped out and replaced though! Which is what I'd be doing now, prior to covering it up again.

Oh yes agreed, for sure, apologies if that sounded like it was directed towards you with the quote @Hugh Jaleak , that was more for the OP.

I have re ordered solvent weld . To do it in that while floors up

Just another question. I'm thinking of cutting the bend off the crome going underfloor so can put a 90 crome on. Be able to disconnect for tiler then.

I can see there are crome conpression but are the other crome 90 pushfit ?

Good Tiler will work around that, fewer joints, the better. Every joint is another chance for a leak.

If that chrome is 35mm/40mm then if you really have to cut it - as suggested try not to - then use McAlpine's Chrome brass fittings - they are by far the best quality you can get, not cheap tho.
