    Fixing Toilet Flange
    My toilet leaking water when flush and I took it off to replace the bee wax and found the flange is damaged. Probably from overtightened the bolts. I would like to replace the toilet flange. Is it possible to replace it? If not replacing the flange what can I do? Thanks.

    Those are flange extension plates, John... Not thick enough to act as a flange or flange repair by itself. The best option here is the repair flange as posted by Harold.

    Good day guys!
