hello, we have an old house that had a clawfoot tub that drained into the wall about 6 inches above the floor. We now want to replace it with a shower. How do we get the drain problem figured out? We are on a slab foundation. Please any info will help!!!!!

Hey Tim,

It's a lot easier to convert a tub to a shower then it is to convert a slower to a tub.
Or it was untill I read, " drained into the wall about 6 inches above the floor."
First off you're gonna hafta open up that wall and see what the old tub connects to. It's for sure that some major under slab work well have to be done. This means jackhammering up the slab and taking a 2" trap off a existing drain. You will also have to vent the shower. To do what you wish will require plumbing skills and tools. You are getting into major surgery here
that might require you to bring in outside help. regards, Tom
