Plumbing Help -- Toilet Flange
If I didn't have bad luck, I wouldn't have any luck at all...
Took toilet off to replace it and flange is cracked. Now, it's only cracked in one place but it happens to be where the bolts need to end up so it won't hold the bolt secure like it needs to. So two fold question... 1. Is there any kind of simple fix to this problem? I've seen some rings that seem to go on top of the old one to give you a new way to get the bolt secure? I'm on a slab so it's not going to be easily accessible at all. 2. If I'm out of luck, how much am I looking at for a plumber to do this? Don't bother trying to tell me how to do it myself as there's no way I have the abilities. |

Yes but that's for an iron instead of PVC and sadly the iron one is easier than PVC from what I've seen. Last edited by rowech : 06-08-2011 at 07:13 AM. |

JB Weld and pray? I'm not sure what else outside of the more expensive options.

From what I'm reading, something called a super ring might do the trick. it appears to be something that just goes on top of the old one and since the flange itself is fine, it could work. I just need to be able to figure out a way to get the bolts to stay. This seems like the best solution I've found. |
