its probs ok on the bigger side of things like a refit or stuff like that but all my work on this bath room will be copper pipe and solder joints as all the pipes come out the floor and no iso's and its got in not copper straght to the taps and looow no flew pipe and the old pipe looks its hade better days
 
there is a time for copper and a time for plastic - particually as copper is so damn ecpensive at the moment!

- copper in plain view

- plastic under floors and out of sight

Plastic is better under the floor mate, cause its bendy and I can use one long piece with NO joints at all, and still bend it into place.

I do tend to use JG pipe and inserts with compression fittings though - its cheaper and less bulky on the pipe! Not everyone realises that you can do this . . .
 
if i have to use plastic i do as avatar does and use the correct inserts for the pipe make and go with compression fittings.
