Does anyone find notching joists a complete pain and are there any products out there that are an alternative or any other ways of hiding pipework?

No way around it unless you want to run all pipework on the surface!
A cordless circular saw,a Fein Multimaster and good quality spade bits will make it easier.

always put the nail under the pipe as they can drop out with age and heat the other way

Long time since I have been on here...
When I asked the question, I was thinking more of how you secure a pipe in a notched joist or a joist which you have drilled. I know a saddle clip can be used in a notch but obviously you need to make the notch big enough to accomodate the clip. How would you do it if the notch had to be narrow or if a pipe was passing through a hole made in the joist?
