Spent time today removing a WC pan, or rather the cistern.Â* The pan
itself is sitting on the floor, loose, waiting to be removed, but I'm
not sure what else I need.

The pan is not being replaced, so I need to block off the exit/waste
pipe.Â* I thought I needed some sort of inflatable balloon that goes in
the waste pipe.Â* Is that right, and if so, what is it called?Â* Searches
involving pipe and balloon just bring up plastic things to stop leaves
going into waste pipes from gutters.Â* Perhaps I just need a 'soil pipe
socket plug'?Â* Or what looks like a ribbed rubber plug?

Thanks!


Crumpled newspaper and concrete works well.
