It's been a while since I was able to do any work. I started to change the toilet in the boiler room. The flange was broken, I made it worse by trying to break it out because the cast iron flange is cemented tight in the cement floor. The flange is slightly un-level and the floor slightly raised. I drilled out all the old lead and packing below it. down about 3" between the soil pipe and the flange to old rough stoney concrete. They is a rough gap under the flange so I have nothing to attach a new one too. The old flange is bonded to the cement floor.
The concrete has a lot more stone then usual, It was a commercial business in the cellar between in 1946-1949
I will not be putting any flooring over the concrete as it is a boiler room with a set tub and storage old shelves.
Can anyone suggest what I need to do next. Which tools I will need and how long this would take a plumber to fix correctly. I want to do this one ass right as I can. So I never have to do it again. The chisels I have are new but older craftsman set. They are smaller not heavy duty enough to break the cast iron. they also have a pretty small striking area.Thanks
