I assumed the 4" was standard, but I can attach a picture this evening if it would help.

What size PVC would I need from the supply store to prime and glue into a 4” PVC? My gutter downspout flows into a PVC pipe in my driveway which I accidentally ran over yesterday with my Jeep and shattered into a million pieces. I figure I just need to glue a new pipe into the existing one that...

Can anyone identify this type of flange? It doesn’t seem to be the traditional PVC flange that glues into the waste pipe below (maybe its glued over the pipe instead?) Any professional ideas to repair would be appreciated too (repair ring?)

We did order custom cabinets, they are already being made. They are 36 inch with crown. The cabinets ordered so not specifically have a built in soffit, but I guess the only option would be to run the pipe through the cabinets somehow and use a filler and crown to dress the tops.

Hi all- I have a basement bathroom that I am renovating and was hoping for some expert support on how to handle setting the toilet properly. This particular bathroom had a smell of sewage gas, which made sense since the toilet was sitting about 1/2" off the finished floor in the back, where...
