No plumbers putty necessary with any toilet installation that I could possibly think of,wax ring only===Bob
What about plumber’s putty? I see others use it. Is it necessary?
LOL! Not bad but jeeezzz.Its A toilet video LOL! Thanks for watching===Bob
Best toilet install video in the history of mankind!
You are very welcome Thanks for watching==Bob
Thanks for the *extremely* helpful video…this cleared up so many things for me!
A whole repair flange may do the trick.Youtube channel “plumberx”has a video on one ,hope this helps you out===Bob
Great video! Any advice for me? The previous owner installed flooring in the bathroom adding about 1/4 to 3/8″ without changing the toilet connection. Looks like someone used two or three wax rings at a time for this but I had no luck with two rings on my first try. Any special I could try on my second go round? thx. – Jon
We don’t appreciate these basic things untill we don’t have them!===Bob
Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge, I really wished I would have paid attention to my dad when he would do this stuff, instead of watching cartoons! haha
Thanks again!!
Yes, It would be obvious if you have a poor seal. Water on floor or bad sewer gas smell would tell the tale. Hope all works out if not new wax ring and toilet bolts and all is well. Good luck===Bob
Great Video, too bad I watched it after I installed my toiled doh!
I MAY (probably) did wiggle the toilet as you specifically instructed not to, will any leaks in the seal be clearly apparent by smell or water around the toilet or should I re do the whole thing?
Thanks.. keep up the great work!
Eww did you juts drink that coffee after fitting the toilet! lol
Excellent, I can’t thank you enough! Have a wonderful holiday!
If you are eliminating the toilet completely I will be assuming you will be repairing floor also.There are caps available for copper,p,v,c,and cast pipes in appropriate sizes to your pipe.open your floor,or ceiling below and cut pipe at straight section,not at elbow or hub,Install cap.There is a thick rubber cap available that can be installed with a screwdriver if you are concerned about your installation skills.Dont accidentally cut and cap any active drainlines connected to it,seek pro.-Bob
wow is it really that easy???
Thank you excellent excellent instruction.
Question for you though, how to you cap off an area where a toilet was installed. I no longer wish to keep the “powder room” that came with my old house and have no clue as to capping off the plumbing. Any advice would be most appreciated.
Put it to good use elsewhere.Thanks for the blessing,can never have too many of those===Bob
I just saved $250, thanks and God bless
Morter may glue toilet to floor making it not removable without breaking it.I would recommend plaster of paris making sure you allow as much drying time as possible before using toilet.Good luck===Bob
What do you do when you have an uneven floor? Ive seen mortar put down underneath the toilet to stabilize it. Have you ever seen this?
Good luck I’m confident you will do fine===Bob
Thank you Sir, I need to replace my toilet tomorrow and have no idea what to do until I saw your video.
I also have many stories about boneheaded things done during projects.Hot water run to toilet seems to be a common occurance!Thanks for post.===Bob
contractors… please NEVER put the toilet’s
water-feed pipe directly behind the toilet. Always place it off to the side. I replaced a toilet today,the pipe was directly behind the toilet preventing it from being mounted. If the pipe had been to the side the job would have been 20mins instead of 6hrs. (long story)
Sorry but no I dont,—Bob
