Was drilling away from one end to the other and got to the 3rd hole from the end when it got a little bit harder than normal, removed the drill and got a sudden recognisable smell, gas :face palm: Called Gas Emergency Services and they capped it off, pain in the arse. My mate came round the next day to have a look and the old steel pipe that goes into the floor only fed the cooker, old gas fire & old boiler, so he connected the feed to the new boiler pipe and will run a new pipe in for the cooker. Pain in the arse but just one of those things really. The pipe should be 50mm down apparently and it was within 10mm, an inch either side and I wouldn't have hit the pipe, oh well!

[IMG]http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b112/GrahamVFR/House/D4F6F79B-A8EE-4006-8480-3499A85FBC7B.jpg[/IMG] Considering the bloke was an electrician I question his ability to do anything electrical. The sockets in the whole house, including the kitchen, are all running of the one RCD, so my mate is rewiring as we decorate, due to the concrete floors all the wires needed to go upstairs so we made quite a mess chasing the new ring main in.
