They couldn't find the mains cock in the street either. God knows how they managed to get everything fixed up with water still in full flow.
This is great advice, by the way. I hope I never have to use it!
I spoke to the sparks outside and he said, 'Who runs water pipes right underneath the floorboards?' - blaming a previous batch of plumbers. I thought, 'Who uses a plunge saw on floorboards without checking to see if there are pipes right underneath?' I would have thought a multitool cut would have given them at least a fighting chance of not causing a mess, even if they didn't have a pipe detector.
