There seems to be a long crack coming down from the joint into the cement floor (the pipe coming out of the floor has a lip or flare to it similar to a toilet flang), is there a way to fix this or does the pipe coming out of the floor need to be replaced ie jack hammering etc??? I am concerned about just connecting up to pvc or whathaveyou to change the system over with the crack being in cast iron floor level.
Any help anyone can give is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
