Hello
I have a old tub that I want to replace that is located in a 3 wall alcove. The supply side of the tub has a 6'' thick cement wall blocking access to the drain system from the backside (house is built on slope, 20y old and this is on bottom floor which is cement, no crawlspace that I know of). I am currently pulling up the tile and floor on the access side of the tub to see if access underneath the tub is possible. Has anyone ran into a similar problem and how was it handled. Can you connect the drain pipe to the raiser before attaching to tub then place tub in alcove and connect overflow and drain? I am grateful for any advice. Thanks:confused:
