As a 36 year residential repair plumber, it's obvious that most of the comments made are folks that have absolutely no clue about plumbing. Yes, prime, glue 100% of the time, replace flange instead of using lags or repair flanges, and GLOVES. Good job on the video!
Outstanding tutorial! Do it right the 1st time and never go back. My Dad's wise advice over 60 years ago. The homeowner before me simply put a wax ring down on a concrete/tile floor and then siliconed the toilet to the tile on a $600k house!!!! How frustrating on at least three levels!
The secret is to only show the footage of when everything goes perfect. Some of the people uploading videos like these do things wrong, then fix them off camera and are either too stupid, too lazy or too embarrassed to film themselves fixing it, so they show you the wrong way, but fix it and you will never get what they are doing to work unless you noticed they fixed it. When watching videos by DIYers, you have to know enough to be able to tell if the guy making the video knows what he is talking about or is a complete idiot. More often than not, they are complete idiots.
With Camera close up made it very easy to understand all the steps. I also liked how you removed the old flange, and put spacer. This is an excellent video. I like it when people like you make effort to explain every detail. I gave this video a rating of 100 out of 10. Yes exceptional, attention to detail, right camera angle.

Always wonder why installers glue the flange to the pipe. Water doesn't flow uphill, and the fit is already nice and tight. If you ever need to replace the flange you made a bigger job of getting it free.
Obviously you haven’t had to plunge a backed up toilet that had either a leaking wax ring or cracked flange. You glue it because it needs to be sealed to prevent any leaks at any point in the future. Not just because someone says so.
what is that brown colored compound you used on the cement over the cement ... on which the flange sits? Can i use that to cover up rotted wood? if not what would you suggest? Its hard to get in there and replace the wood so i am thinking of using a cement compoud that will allow me to drill holes and fix the flange on... Thoughts?
Just watched your vid. Quite good info. Although you must have already tested positive for hep C. No plumber would work on a toilet flange with out latex gloves. PPE!
IIRC it was 1/4” tap cons. 2 1/2” long. Bit size was 3/16”. When you buy the tap cons the package will say what size drill bit. Might even include the bit
Man that one don't look healthy😂 I had to change 13 of these things in a hotel one time. Oh boy you can only imagine what it looked like under there. Yikes.
My plastic flange is a little warped, but not broken. I used a steel ring to reinforce it, but it was never screwed down. The flange rests on a tiled surface. How do I drill tile to screw the flange to the floor? Concrete under tile. I am concerned about breaking the tile by drilling and/or driving the screws.
Yes it is designed so it can go on top. I didn’t like having a join with the spacer on top to the flange. So I modified it and used it as a spacer to go under. Toilet now sits on the flange with the flange resting on floor height.
If the problem with the toilet is the flange is broken and the toilet moves but doesn't leak. Can I Tapcon the toilet to the floor rather than replace the flange?
It's important to note that one should put some toilet paper down and just inside the waste opening to block it. Not just for blocking the sewer gases but also to prevent the pieces being cut off the old flange from falling into the eternal abyss, never to be recovered!
Great point. I actually had a grocery bag stuffed with several other grocery bags stuffed down into the pipe. As you mention it’s dual purpose. To keep gases from coming up. And to not loose pieces down the pipe as you cut away the old flange.
I got in a hurry once and forgot to pull the grocery store handle sack that had a couple of sheets of newspaper in it I remembered after about the third flush there was another toilet in the next stall and the one in the men's room the line opened up to six inch in the concrete floor i flushed all those toilets many times and urinals and had the vanity faucets wide open the bag made it out of the drain also the dish machine was in the other side of the wall I rant that as well as the pots and pans sink faucets it all happened in a restaurant before it opened for the day I was sweating it for sure
i do not know what glue you used but it took forever to set up, it looked like CPVC glue and not the clear or gray PVC cement and no primer, if you used the clear cxement with primer on 4" PVC pipe would not be moving in a couple of minutes for sure
I didn’t use it because I didn’t have any. And the pipe is in cement. It’s not moving. And the flange is also screwed down. It’s not moving. Also there are some studies that show no significant added strength when primer is used. Check the conclusion on this study www.plumbingsupply.com/the-great-pvc-primer-debate.html
The spacer is the old flange it goes over existing flange if main drain got broke during trying to break old flange loose you would have to bust up your tile and your concrete floor$$$ your either living right or a very lucky man not breaking your main drain line. If it works it works
I actually like the idea of having the finished floor NOT underneath the flange so later if you want to remove it it's a piece of cake. Also some floors are FLOATING as well. The spacer idea is great.

I have a 3 inch abs and that flange looks too big. They sell one that fits inside but it wont sit flush because the 3 inch abs is flush with floor and the flange has extra thickness of about 1/8 inch right there and when i test fit toilet it is 1/8 from sitting flush to floor.
The flange should sit on the finished floor. Rarely happens because the finished floor is never installed when plumbers do the rough in. Hence thicker wax rings.
You could have just drilled some lag bolts and set the stool without all the trouble they even have closet flange that will attach the top of that one but I guess if you have the time and nothing else to do
that is why plubers get over $100 per hour, gfloves really only work just so good, wait till you work on stuff that is up to your elbow like a lift station i just did for the company i work for, i had to use a shovel to scoop off the crap on top before reaching in and i get paid less than $20 per hour, it is not a desk job or for wimps hahahaha
Mine can't be glued- it's CAST IRON- and I used a screw in flange with rubber around it-- and it will NOT go flat- flush to the floor.. GUess I need to cut it out.. I can't drill into concrete.. NOT able to.. Barely was able to do the tank.. etc.. when I installed a bidet later.

Metal rings corrode sooooo fast that's why I don't use them but I always wished they made a spacer for underneath the new flange . Great Idea
That’s a valid point. But I’d think it would take a long time.
I use stainless steel. Code requires stainless no painted rings. Also stainless wood screws

Always wonder why installers glue the flange to the pipe. Water doesn't flow uphill, and the fit is already nice and tight. If you ever need to replace the flange you made a bigger job of getting it free.
Obviously you haven’t had to plunge a backed up toilet that had either a leaking wax ring or cracked flange. You glue it because it needs to be sealed to prevent any leaks at any point in the future. Not just because someone says so.
Correct. Water potentially could be backed up and come back the other way.
Do you have to glue it in if it slides into the pipe
Are we supposed to glue it in????
what is that brown colored compound you used on the cement over the cement ... on which the flange sits? Can i use that to cover up rotted wood? if not what would you suggest?
Its hard to get in there and replace the wood so i am thinking of using a cement compoud that will allow me to drill holes and fix the flange on... Thoughts?
It’s sanded grout. I don’t think it would make a good filler. Dries like cement and would crack on a wood floor I bet.
Good video! Thank you…

How do I drill tile to screw the flange to the floor? Concrete under tile. I am concerned about breaking the tile by drilling and/or driving the screws.
With a masonry drill bit it will work fine. Don’t need a hammer drill. Take your time. It won’t crack.

What the video host replied is 100% correct.
Take your time when drilling through your tiles, a few drops of water helps too.
Which glue you used?
Universal type good for PVC
I just used JB Weld. It worked like a charm.
Might finally have that project I gotta give in and buy the sawzall
Very good job.... What kind of putty, glue or cement type substance was that you put on before the flange?
He said it was floor grout to sink the closet flange spacer in.
Yup. Sanded tile grout.
Why does it seem like that spacer is made to be installed on the top of the new flange? Is that wrong for me to think that?
Yes it is designed so it can go on top. I didn’t like having a join with the spacer on top to the flange. So I modified it and used it as a spacer to go under. Toilet now sits on the flange with the flange resting on floor height.

You could use a die grinder or dremel type tool to cut the 3” pipe down a little bit so your flange will sit lower.
so the bottom surface of flange flush with finished floor? top surface of flange above finished floor?
The flange should sit on the finished floor.
Rarely happens because the finished floor is never installed when plumbers do the rough in. Hence thicker wax rings.
Previous owner of my house did not remove the old flange. He/she put the new over the old the tould it 3/4 of an inch off the floor.
Sometimes the pipe can break but not usually whe glued inside 4inch

DO NOT used Tapcons. They rust and or break. Use stainless hardware!
I was told that the flange could not go above the floor because the the wax could not go down. Your does not seem to have problem.
The flange is supposed to sit on the finished surface. This rarely happens because plumbers do the rough in plumbing before the floors are finished/tiled.
Because of this, they make regular and thicker wax rings.
Though lately I’ve used synthetic neoprene rings with great success.
I know a plumber who would double the wax rings when the flange height was flush with floor 😂 never leaked tho lol
