I am in the process of doing up my bathroom and am going to replace
the WC. The problem is the WC is cemented into the soil pipe pipe
which is set in concrete in the floor. Do I just chip away the WC
waste and put some sort of plastic insert into the soil pipe as it
comes through the floor to connect the new WC waste to ? How difficult
is this ?
Thanks for any help

It seems to be usual to cut the soil pipe more or less flush with the floor
and use a 90 degree plastic connector. Plumbers used to use a special cutter
tool but a small angle grinder works.
You may need to use a "space saver" 90 bend connector to get the pan nearer
to the wall.
Oh, and I found those fancy pans, with the sides that hide the pan's U bend,
don't fit in this situation.
