I used to be a plumber apprentice a long time ago, so I'm not a complete idiot on the topic, but I have a question. Is there any trick way to unglue PVC pipe joints? I have to move a closet flange as the bozo who roughed it or the bozo who framed the wall missed the mark. It's 8" to the RO. Somehow, the builder found a 8" toilet (Mansfield) but it doesn't flush with much authority. So I need to install an offset closet flange so I can use a standard 10" toilet, which gives much better options for one that will work better. Anyhow, it's been glued up for some time (the house was built in '99) and I haven't had much luck getting the joint to come apart.
Lacking some way to do that, maybe I can reach inside the pipe (3") with a cutoff wheel on the die grinder and chop it below the flange, but this will necessitate a much bigger hole in the concrete. Hoping one of you have a magic trick that will make this easier.
Thanks
