I havbe a gas pipe that comes i9nto my kitchen from the metre and then turns up for the boiler. The pipe means my washing machine cannot be used as it is right up against this pipe.
Can this pipe be buried into the wall?

"Yes it can be. You will need a gas safe engineer to do the work. There maybe other routes too the pipe can be run"

"Yes it can be, but would probably be best to reroute pipe rather than channel into the wall. Hope this helps."
