Hello,
Is it possible/allowed to drill or notch studs in a stud wall; especially if it is not load bearing?
I did remove the plasterboard wall from my bathroom wall once and found that the studs had been notched to allow an overflow pipe to pass through, from when the airing cupboard had been located in there many years before. The wall had not fallen down, which suggests it is structurally ok, but is it seen as a bodge?
Can you drill holes for cables, provided they are in the right zones? I'm thinking it might avoid problems of running cable through the loft space, where insulation may cover the cable.
Thanks, Stephen.
