if you can get the leak area clean, you can try diluting some pvc cement
with pvc solvent and running that into the leak area, when that doesn't
work, get the hacksaw out.

a drain pipe shouldn't have much pressure on it. You can mix up some jb
weld and try sweating it into place with a heat gun. (the stuff gets rather
runny with warmed)

The black PVC pipe coming down into the basement from the toilet has a
leak. It is leaking from the joint where that pipe meets with the 90degree
pipe after it. Is there anything sold to mend that typeof joint leak or do
I have to cut it all apart and put in new pipe??

Thanks ,

John
