    Bathtub Drain concrete slab
    I'm just finishing up the basment. The bath drain is roughed in. My problem is the rough-in is on the wrong side. I want the bathtub installed with the plumbing fitures on the same wall as the toilet. Can I run a drain line under the tub?

    Are you asking if you can jackhammer up the cement and reposition the bath tub drain? Since I have no idea how the tub's vented and how moving the drain will affect the bathroom group I can't answer. I just don't have enough details and information. Regards, tom

I am installing a tub to existing plumbing, but it's on a concrete slab. We've jackhammered the concrete so that I have enough room underneath to put in the drain and p-trap, but am I going to have to buy the tub, set it in place, hook up the plumbing and then remove it to replace the concrete?
