Various gas and water plumbing questions

Posted questions Hi, a few questions I'm afraid 1. we are wanting to move our back door which is in the kitchen. The wall we want to move it to has two pipes running across it about a foot above the skirting. One is the water pipe from the stopcock and I think the other is the main gas pipe going to our combi boiler. Can these pipes be re routed under the floor? the kitchen floor is concrete, or is there any other way to reroute? We are having a new kitchen in a couple of months so this needs sorting soon or the kitchen isn't going to fit. 2. We need to remove the radiator in the kitchen. It's the last rad on the system ( I think) and all rads have thermostatic valves. Is this possible? 3. We need the old gas fire in the lounge capping off for wood burner installation. The pipe comes up through the floor boards so access the beneath the floor is fairly easy. Is this a fairly simple job? Obviously we would use registered gas Plummer for all work.

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

hi 1 these pipes can be re-routed under the floor, the only other option is to take them over the door but not very pleasing to the eye 2 removing any radiator in the system is fine as long as its not the only one 3 disconnecting the fire is bread and butter work for any competent gas engineer
