Know a reliable plumber?

Got an older home, built in 1965, with a basement washing machine hookup. The standpipe is galvanized steel going into a floor drain. It's mounted into the drain solidly. Started having problems with the pipe overflowing and I decided to take a look at it. The pipe is almost completely rusted away where it enters the drain.

I'm hopeful although not confident that the pipe can be replaced without having to tear up the concrete. Can't see if it screws into the drain opening. It looks like it just goes into the center of the drain.

Anyone have experienced this sort of thing?

Expecting the worst...

Nice... Maybe I should just go rent a jackhammer and tear out the entire basement floor.

At least it made me smile for a moment. I'm going to go look and see if there are any signs of threads. Maybe I can get it out, I mean it's only 54 years old and rusted through a 3/16" thick wall of galvanized steel.

It will be threaded a heavy pipe wrench and pipe extension will probably break it loose.

Maybe the drain just needs to be cleaned, can you run a snake down the drainpipe to clean it out?

Is the washer the only one on this drain?

My home was build in 1956 I did this about 3 years ago. I did have to redress the threads because the were in bad shape. I know a lot of the older folks in the neighborhood just did away with the stand pipe alltogether and ran the washer drain hose direct with a extension and put a ped on wall to hang the drain hose above the water line. Some who couldnt break loose the stand pipe just chiseled a hole in the floor drain next to the pipe. I didnt like that idea but worked for them.
