I hired a plumber to set my bathtub and put in the trap for the drain. He jackhammer the concrete to get a trap in.
Question #1. Does the hole in my concrete need to be sealed with cement? He just put rock back into it, but no concrete.
Question #2. Is it possible now to shift the tub about 1" backward once the drain is already hooked up, or will it mess up the pipe fit.
Question #3. In relation to question 2, I framed the walls so that there was 1/2" on all 3 sides of the tub between the framing so that I could fit drywall in between. This is the reason for question 2, because he pushed the tub all the way to the front wall and now I have about an 1 1/2" gap in the back. I don't know how I will fill the gap without moving it.
