    How to fix leaking bathtub drain on a slab
    I have a bathtub that is leaking around a clean-out pipe that I have extending from the wall of my house. The house is on a slab. Is there a product that will act like a " stop leak" product that I can use before I tear out the wall behind the tub?

    I a quick response will be appreciated.

    Thanks
