[QUOTE="AAAMUSEMENTS, post: 156019, member: 5001"] Yeah... evidently the tongue in cheek nature of that last comment was lost... Sorry if I am not making this clear enough, to reiterate; 1. Plastic going through just about anything will probably be fine. 2. Copper through voids and under floorboards has always been fine. It's specifically cement (which can be highly corrosive) that can create a problem. 3. Of course showers can have rear entry. Much of the time they are installed on stud walls with pipe drops or the pipes come straight through the internal wall. But any reputable plumber would avoid putting elbows in a solid wall behind tiles, unless it was absolutely unavoidable? I would hope it was a general concept on here that just because work has been done badly or to an outdated specification in the past, it doesn't make it ok to continue that into the future? [/QUOTE]
