Hello. I've just started to do some ground work for a full bathroom refurb in my house. I'm looking at replacing the current laminate flooring with a tiled floor. Looking under the floor I've found that the area under my bathroom seems to be from where all other pipes branch from. All the fitting are push fit and have been there for 20 years,

Would it be OK to just refit new fitting an inserts and leave the pipes where they are or should I attempt to reroute them so there are no joint under the future tiles floor.?

Thanks for any input.
