Hi all,
I am a good DIY plumber but do not no the terminology so please excuse me.
I am at the final stages of plumbing in our downstairs new bathroom now and have encountered a problem. We have a chrome bottle trap waste ont he sink and the chrome then goes into the wall. The chrome pipe is specific as it goes from about 25mm to 32mm so I cannot change it for another longer piece.
The issue is the waste terminates right in the middle of the wall it is going through and I know that you shouldn't have a plastic compression joint burined in a wall.
How should I get round this? Any ideas? I am tempted to simply join it in the wall and wrap in Denso tape and try to cut a 40mm pipe and wrap that round it for protection?
Does anyone know what the official way to do it is?
Thanks.
Ian
