what do you need to change / alter?
 
For the basin I need too join a tee piece for a cold water supply, and the radiator is getting move,so I need to pull the piles through the floor then join a couplin to extend.
Any suggestions?
 
Basin your fecked on wonā€™t get a fitting in so need to open the wall up etc

As for rad you should be able to use the existing 16mm-1/2ā€ if you canā€™t you can pick them up easier enough

Have a word with bhive
 

And a decent set of cutters donā€™t cut all the way through spin the cutters wonā€™t deform the pipe
