    Turned out to be 10mm. And having seen all those other wires it will definitely be no nails moving forward.

    Also having been back up there today can say it's holding, happy days!

    Though having started on the kitchen expect a new thread some time soon..

    Nice job - well done :smiley:

    Just to be doubly sure, you did slip in pipe inserts?

    Best to put a plastic sleeve over the pipe as it goes through the metal stud, plus cut back the metal base plate away from the coupling.
    A thankyou is payment enough .
