    can we move a toilet 4 inches?
    we contracted with a company to remodel our bathroom. They say they are moving the toilet 4 inches over to accommodate a larger vanity. Is this possible? I believe the floor is concrete with 2 x 6 stud walls. We don't want to have future problems with the toilet.

    thanks

    There should be no problem in moving your toilet. The slab will have to be opened up and the drain pipes moved but the slab can be patched and your new vanity set in place. Good luck on your remodel . Tom
