Moving a radiator

[chattykathy]

After removing laminate flooring in our kitchen we are disapointed to find that the original floor has been concreted over. The problem is the pipes to the radiator are coming out of the said floor. How do we go about moving/replacing the radiator?
TIA

The heating pipes will be laid in the floor screed (layer of concrete). Not usually very deep. The only way to move these is to dig 'em up! Is it possible to connect to the pipes emerging from your floor, then running to your new location? This will be the easiest solution, other than that, you're in for some chiselling out.

I don't really want pipes being that visible so I think I better get the chisel out! Thanks for the advice :-)

Work out where the pipe runs are .. and break up well outside this area. Work towards the pipes from there. Chop out new route. Use insulating sleeving taped up to re-route, and cement back in.
