ᐅ Connections of the underfloor heating system located in the wrong room

Hello everyone,
Our builder installed the pipes for the underfloor heating in the slab, placing them beneath the steel reinforcement. So, there is roughly 25–30 cm (10–12 inches) of concrete and steel above the pipes.
However, something went wrong, and the underfloor heating pipes are coming up through the floor in the dressing room instead of the utility room.
The architect suggested moving the wall in the dressing room forward a bit and routing the pipes inside the wall. But this would reduce the size of the dressing room by about 20 cm (8 inches).
Is it possible to break into the slab to reroute the pipes under the timber frame into the utility room?
What would you do in my situation?
Best regards,
Tito

Why would anyone confuse top and bottom there?
This is about concrete core activation. The setup is already correct as it is.In my opinion, this is a neat solution, but it is probably more suitable for floor slabs between stories rather than for ground slabs.
[P.S. @ the moderators: am I doing something wrong if my quote boxes turn out extremely narrow?]
