Isit a good idea to run aircon piping under tiles?

Unless you wanna re-tile if your air-con pipes got problem. And I think tiles can last a lot longer than pipes.

I think my light brown laminate is admira, the rest r EDL. What types of solid top does ur contractor have?

I can't recall the brand coz I was quite focused on quartz as we wanted white and something easy to maintain. But saw your White Diamond, really swept us over.

Wow really? Took me awhile to decide cos all the whites/offwhites that were available looked so similar. Then it took abit of effort convincing the bf. but actually I duno how it will look as a huge slab. I hope it won't be too bling looking cos im trying the scandi look

Will pipes leak that easily?

I believe joints are a source for leaks. Plus condensation also plays a part in undermining the integrity of the pipes.

So putting the pipes below the tiles is a leap of faith?

That's what I would not choose to do. Air-con pipes not as easy to change as electrical wires.

Btw do help me check out your solid surface.

Sorted out aircon today. Workers made progress on sealing up old toilet door & n started prepping kitchen n toilet walls n floors. Time to buy lights frm TB n also get sanitary/cook fittings!

The guy laying the tiles said that they cant lay it in the strict subway pattern, may cause uneveness.. they say better to stagger it more...
