Wife and I are in the middle of a bathroom remodel, have removed the old tub and are wanting to put a shower surround in.
The drain isn't in the correct location that the shower pan calls for.
The previous tub drain was basically a piece of drain extension at a slight angle and siliconed into the cast iron.
There are two 22 degree elbows attached to the cast iron drain in a S pattern to bring it up to where the drain extension went down... needless to say its a hot mess as you can see in the pictures.
I'm thinking that we will need to do some like shown in the diagram, cut out the joist and scab in and brace around the area, which will replace the joist the rabid beaver who did the job on the joist in the first place, and allow for more access to plumb the drain correctly.
Thoughts? Ideas?
Want to do it or know someone who would be interested? My wife has a overt fear of the house falling apart so she's wanting me to find someone to take care of it. My normal plumber and contractor people are booked up for several weeks and it's really the only thing standing in the way of finishing the project.
