    I have a lead bend that is flush with the floor. A remove a little of the concrete ar
    Around the perimeter of the bend to set the flange into. It give me just a little space to bend over the flange, not much. Do I need to solder it to make it air tight. How do I solder the bend onto the flange without affecting the lead bend which is embedded several inches of concrete.
