I have a question regarding my gameplan to remove the cast iron flange. It must have been installed prior to the concrete as the concrete appears to be flush w/ the flange. A plumber recommended chiseling it out and taking out the lead w/ a drill. I started doing this and noticed that this seems to be tons of work. I'm messing up the out base of concrete that supports the flange. Should I continue or try to put a quick ring over the existing? I've taken out about 20% or so of the lead and broken much of the top of the cast iron flange but the more I do it the less it is making sense to me. Any ideas/help is appreciated. I also learned that my shower waste pipe is made of lead and that all I had to do was use a casting iron to make it seal the 2 inch pipe. Learning daily. Thanks, Joe
