I'm needing to re-route some cold supply pipework in the house as some muppet has routed it outside the house and back round the side before it gets back into the kitchen. I'm doing some building work soon which means taking down one external wall where the pipework passes through.
Anyway, the pipe from the stopcock to the back of my house is lead. Do I really need to change it? It tees off upstairs too, and since I've recently had the upstairs bathroom done, I don't really fancy ripping out the tiling, etc. so that I can replace this pipe.
