Relocate mains water supply

[Tidlewave13]

Evening all,

Fresh to the forum so hello first!

Well right to it. I am currently mid flow with a new kitchen design but need to establish something before we go any further. My mains water supply comes in directly under where the sink is currently located as normal. But if tou check the photo out i want to do away with the units under the window altogether and relocate the sink to the recess to the right. So in doing this the mains water pipe will be left exposed and in completely the wrong place. Ive also attached a picture from the new design so it hopefuly makes a bit more sense what im trying to achieve.

I need to know two things really. 1) can it be relocated to under the new sink location? And 2) how much and who can do it!!

Many thanks in advance boys and girls.

Cheers

Matt

is it a solid floor or do you have floor boards? much easier to do if you have floor boards.

you will have to dig it up put a coupling on and run it under the screed easy enough for a plumber but could be a bit beyond basic diy

Joints in screed are best avoided. If location of pipe can be established outside building, then drill and sleeve for new entry to required location. Usually less than two hours work. Minimal disturbance to existing flooring.
