Advice on lowering toilet flange in a lead bend.
I am re-doing my bathroom and gutted everything out, including the old
mud tile floor. What the problem is now is that my toilet flange is about 1-1.5" above what the new finished floor would be. It looks like a cast iron flange soldered to a lead bend which is in the concrete floor( on a slab). How can I lower the flange once my tile floor is installed? It looks as if I would have to cut the flange off and install a new flange over the lead pipe and solder it again, or do they sell something for this application . Any advice appreciated. |

What about building up a small platform around the toilet? I find many of them are lower than comfortable anyways. (I'm a bit over 6' tall.) Chris |
