I would like to know if I would to re-tile my shower over the existing tile,
Would I need to replace the flange, or is there a flange that fits over a flange.

Hi Mark,

There is no flange that would fit over another flange. But, the existing flange has threads that allow the tile man to set the drain at the desired height. If you could removed the tile and mortar from around the drain and free it up then you could adjust it up so it would accommodate the new tile. Other wise, if there is no leaks, then tile up to the drain and bevel down to it.
Good luck, Tom
