Hello!
We are replacing the toilet in our bathroom and I have a few questions.
1. When pulling out the old toilet (seems to us that it was the original toilet to the house which was built in the 70's) the flange seems to me that it is kind of twisted, for lack of a better word. It doesnot seem to be broken at all, but when putting the screws in to hold the toilet down, to put them in correctly the toilet would be turned toward the shower. Is there a way to fix the flange without having to replace it?
2. When taking the old rusted screws out of the flange there was a washer under the flange. Is that something that I need to make sure to do?
3. In your experience, is there anything that we need to be aware of to make this a smoother process?
I am hopping to get it put in tomorrow after DH gets off of work. Right now there is a rag stuffed in to prevent any sewage gasses from coming in to the house.
Thanks in advance!!!
