    Are you saying that the entire bathroom groups drainage is above the floor or just the tub? How far above the floor?
    This is a major plumbing project that will either involve tearing up the floor and lowering the drainage or platforming the entire room. This project will require all sorts of tools and skills.

Let me know what you decide. Good luck, Tom
