    How to raise a toilet flange?
    I removed a toilet to put ceramic tile down. All around the ousitde of the flange and wax ring were ant hill mounds of sand. I want to self level the floor but the flange is in the lowest spot of the room and is surrounded by sand and concrete. What is the best way to raise the flange to my desired level? I have a picture but could not figure out how to
    Attach it to this question.

    How low is the flange? You have some "wiggle room" in setting the bowl.

    Here is a picture of the flange, it is in there good. Should I cut off the bolts and put a repair flange on top of it?
