    Leak in Toilet Drain Line
    I need some advice on a leak I have from the upstairs toilet drain. I've cut holes in the drywall and it seems the leak is right at the connection point where the toilet pvc pipe meets the vertical drain. Any advice on a way to fix this myself? Is there any type of glue or fitting I could put over the leak?

    Have you tried pvc pipe glue?

    Michellerenee is on the right track. Dry the joint off as best you can, run PVC primer in the crack of the joint and load it up with PVC cement. Let the glue set up and cure overnight before using the toilet. Good luck, Tom

    I'll give it a try and reply to you. Thank you
