    Joining hub and spigot pipe to PVC
    I am trying to make a repair to my drainage system and the existing drain is ran in hub and spigot. I am trying to do the repair in PVC, but the PVC pipe will not fit into the compression gasket of the hub and spigot. Is there something I can do to make this work or do I have to use hub and spigot to make the repair?
