The copper pipes connected to your mixer tap and shower supply will only need supplementary bonding if the entire system of pipework is metal, however there is no real way of knowing unless you pull up some floor boards. Chances are if there wasn't a supplementary bond there in the first place it won't need it at all as the pipework is most likely PVC.

Well, if it is non metal why would you think it would require earth bonding?
