We are in the middle of renovating two bathrooms and have hired a tiler to do the floors.
Our tiler wants to waterproof everything so when he did the floor he put urethane around our copper pipes that come up through the floor into a baseboard radiator. Is that a bad thing? He wants to make sure that any toilet overflow does not go through into the ceiling below. My concern is that the copper pipes get hot and what does that do to the urethane? Will there be fumes? And also the copper pipes will expand and shrink, will the urethane restrict this?
Thanks
