How to remove cast iron flange easily

[@Jude13able]

This looks like a good way to get lead in your lungs. I could be wrong but I would have drilled out the lead and okum once you do that the flange comes out very easily. And the only tools you need is a drill, drill bits, punch, and a hammer.

Sure...agreed....when you pound on the flange...I worry about busting the waste pipe.....

Thanks for the tip! I did the same method and it took me about 15 mins!! Much appreciated!

I feel like I'm in another dimension every time the saw starts up and the camera blurs

I also wanted to mention that I used a carbine blade.

Are you doing damage under the floor by pounding on the flange like that.?

[@rickbazaldua]

No, this cast iron pipe is pretty thick. I could of done more cutting and less pounding.

[@davido9076]

definitely

[@mikewarner5665]

Why didn't you use a grinder? much faster

[@rickbazaldua]

Didn’t think of using one

How did you remove the LED and hemp?

[@rickbazaldua]

sorry, don't understand the question

[@crosslink1493]

Lead and Oakum packing. It looks like he pulled most of it out with that last piece of the flange the pried out, the little bits and pieces that remained fell on that little 'shelf' area around the pipe in the floor (the subfloor?). Vacuum them up and you're ready to fit in the new flange.

That tile has to go too. Either that or it's time to move.

Its one sheet vinyl flooring, I installed nice gray modern click Lock vinyl planks over it.
