thanks for this video it was really helpful, previous owner of my house glued everything even P-traps under sinks and it is a nightmare to work on. Didn't know to use a heat gun I will try that next time.
Thanks for the heat gun idea. I also like that cutting tool. What is it called? A Dremel Tool would also work wouldn't it? I would highly recommend *against* caulking around the base of the toilet. If that wax seal leaks, you won't see it leaking.
Hey Steve, I've watched many a video on taking out a broken flange, my question is does it HAVE to be glued in place?? OR can the flange be simply screwed in place?? It would seem that it would be a snap to replace it in the future if need be. Thanks
Only if it’s a slip joint ( slip joint is a glue joint) it should be glued and screwed, if it’s not glued and there is a backup , it will leak sub floor or sub grade , yuck 🤢. They make an insertable toilet flange that has a rubber gasket that goes inside the drain pipe. That can only be screwed for future service or replacement if needed
Why dont you have a rag or something else in the hole to avoid debris from falling in? It kind of makes me not trust your judgement/expertise on the rest of the video.
Liked that heat gun demo. Thank you. 👍
Isn’t the flange suppose to be on top of the tile
