Hi Folks, this is my first time on this forum but I'm sure it won't be the last, is there a specific legal depth that a water pipe should be when buried in a concrete floor? and is this the same for domestic and business premises? Are there any regs I should know about when burying pipes in solid floors?

Hot & cold water pipes must be accessible, Normal practice is to make or buy a duct channel with a removable lid.
