Toilets
Replacing toilets, wax rings, flanges and running toilets. Ask with your Sheet attached: homeowners who’ve done it and verified pros answer, and anyone can read it.
Bath · 01Before you ask
Before you ask
The rough-in distance, what the flange looks like, and what leaks or runs.
- Attach your Sheet so people see your sizes and the math.
- Your town is enough. Never your address; check photos for house numbers and plates.
- Is it safe? A safety question here goes to pros verified in plumbing, unless you pick another trade. Only they can call it safe or unsafe.
Bath · 02Replace a toilet
Replace a toilet
Toilet, 12″ rough-in: a toilet for a 12″ rough-in, elongated bowl, a wax seal, a 12″ supply line and new closet bolts.
What people get wrong:
- Measuring from the baseboard. The rough-in is from the finished wall.
- Reusing the wax ring. A used ring never seals again.
- Cranking the nuts. Porcelain cracks.
