| | | toliet unlevel on floor; wrong sized flange?
We put in a new toliet and flange. Now the toliet don't set flat on floor anymore about 1/2 inch up off floor. It rocks back and forth when you sit on it. Did we put the wrong size of flange in or what?  Please help.  Thank You.

The toilet flange should sit directly on the finished floor..no higher. Sounds like you added a flange onto an old flange..?? That might result in this issue.
Explain what you saw prior to doing anything, explain what you did, the more info. the better....MARK

| The old flange was broke, it came off in two pieces. Husband, Now ex replaced that with a new flange and toliet has been unlevel ever since. We are not sure beyond that. We are thinking about Monday taking toliet off and taking a picture of it and posting it or emailing to help understand more better cause We (mom N daughter) don't know anything of this area.

Install pics. to your computer picture file, then go to post like regular. You will see GO ADVANCE button, click that, then scroll down to MANAGE ATTACHMENTS, click that, that brings new pop up window. Then see BROWSE button, click that, then click on file/folder you have pic in. Then press upload and will upload linked to your post (you need to type words into the post box or will not go to advanced feature). Try that let us know. | |

| Hi YF
When you hit go advanced button it brings you to screen that has another MANAGE ATTACHMENTS button...you will see a link directing you to site that reduces file size..a bit confusing to use...but I am here for awhile.
