Need to move toilet left 1" (cast iron)
Hello,
My current problem is I have cast iron plumbing in a concrete floor in a basement. Once the walls were finished and the new travertine floor in I noticed that the center of the toilet flange was only about 10.5" from the wall. This would make it a little tight on the left side when you set down. Front to back is fine I just need a little room left to right. It would be really nice to be able to move the flange to the right at least 1". I was able to remove the plastic toilet flange off the cast iron pipe leaving me with a 4" cast iron stub in the floor. What I need it some sort of offset flange that can attach to the 4" cast iron and allow me to offset it to the right 1" or so. Just wondering what my best solution may be. Thanks for any and all help.

No Plumber am I, however in research for problem bath remodel discovered a PVC 'offset closet flange' by Oatey (#43501) - part says it will move toilet 2"....good luck from Madam Goodwrench.
Thank you to Speedball1 for all the info on moving a toilet up to 4" - which I need for a bath remodel - but who makes the part and where do I find it ? Thanks again... MG
