Plastering over copper pipes

CAESAR32 · 30 Nov 2012

When chasing hot and cold pipes in to the wall to feed a shower, then plastering over do they need protecting is duct tape ok? Or hairfelt lagging?

Both OK. I prefer hairfelt as it helps prevent heat & expansion from cracking the plaster.

you shouldn't plaster in hot & cold pipes they need to be accessible just chase, protect & tile over

It's fine, just put some of that metal chicken wire plasterers use and it'll be strong enough.
