Hi
I have an antique bath that has a lead pipe drain : but the lead at the p-trap has cooroded and had been patched poorly-leving the bath unusable. I would like to replace the lead piping to keep the authenticity but I'm open to options. Looks to be a 2 inch internal diameter
Questions:
Can it be repaired?
Can I get a PVC lead adaptor? (most of the pvc will be below ground floor anyway.I have attached a few photgraphs.
Is working with lead a lost art?
Should I replace all with PVC or some other alternative.
Regards
