Yep, in places they had over 2 inches of tile adhesive onto brick. So now I'm having the fun of squaring the walls (will regret it I'm sure but suspicious of dot & dab taking the 1cm thick tiles I've bought so battening instead). Just found the window lintel has a 5mm crack the length of it
The joists thankfully were sound, just the boards that had rotted.

Yeah, in honesty I did a full run of copper, a really complicated one - about 4 hours work and got cocky and didn't test them as I went along and messed up a tee meaning I had to redo the lot. Chucked my toys out of the pram and went and bought some hep2o.
The innaccessible bits are copper atleast (and less accessible bits mostly joinless hep) .
