    Moving tub drain in concrete slab
    We are remodeling our master bath and we need to move the tub drain from the back center to the left hand side. Would there be a problem if we need to put the pvc lines across the back with an L and to the left had drain. The existing drain is centered on the back wall from the old garden tub, but most of the new reasonable whirlpools are left or right. Thank you
