    Can a main service pipe to a property be partially installed above ground

    I have an iron main water pipe serving our property but flats have been built over the pipe so the pipe is situated under our neighbours drive way. Bristol water have said we can cap the iron pipe off and divert it up into our property and connect it to an internal stop tap. The pipe would come out of the ground and would need a white external box connected to it to then run through our home. It’s the first time I’ve ever have come across this issue within thesny years of living in my property the work to replace a pipe under a concrete slab foundation doesn’t sound cheap. What are my options was Bristol water safe to say this obviously they know their stuff more than me. I’m neurodivergent and I am highly anxious about the repairs and cost I can’t sleep at night the noise is triggering I keep thinking the worse can someone please reply

    How to attach kitchen units to the wall?

    Hello, I need to attach wall units to a wall in my kitchen. I keep drilling the holes for the plugs but they won't stay in and when I try to attach the unit they're coming out and bringing bits of the wall with them. There never has been and doesn’t seem to be any issues with damp and i think it is a brick wall as its backs onto my neighbour. How far should I be drilling into the wall? Are there any alternative options for me? Thanks in advance.
