Apparently the wax seal had been bad for quite a while and the caulking around the toilet was excellent.
Once I noticed that the water was trickling out from the side of the toilet at one of the grout lines I immediately shut of the water and pulled the toilet.
The concrete subfloor immediately around the flange has deteriorated to the point that there is nothing to attach the flange to.
Any suggestions on how to fill the now low spot to be able to reattach the flange so I can reset the toilet properly? Will this require complete slab repair or is there a way to build up the area without completely tearing out the tile?
