Hi All

I have a new toilet to fit and it came with no fittings or instructions. Judging by it, it should be screwed directly into the floor. The holes are vertical so doesn't look like it needs those plastic block things.

I am conscious that the screws will be seen and it is the only thing holding it down so worried about the screws cracking the pan as it moves a little. Are there special fittings for this type of installation?

Thanks

Lee

Rubber washer or plastic cup/dome under the screw head is always used.
You should have got some with the loo - but tap washers work. Don't go
mental and use brass or stainless screws.
