A tenant in my building is proposing a renovation whereby the gas stove is moving to opposite side of the kitchen and essentially swapping places with their dishwasher/sink. Someone on the building board (who is a novice in construction/plumbing) who approves/denies renovation requests has concerns that there might then be pipes in the floor and this could either be against code or increase the difficulty getting to the pipes if there is an issue in the future. Can anyone please speak generically about if this concern has any foundation? To me, pipes under tile floor or pipes behind cabinets or pipes behind tiled/finished wall all create an equal problem if there is a leak..
Thanks!
Thanks!
