    Shower flange
    Hi! Where can I purchase a larger size shower arm flange than what comes standard in Lowe's and HD etc? My hole in my tile was just a tad too big on one side.. 🙄

    Go to Google IMAGES. Type in Extra large shower flange. This will produce many results. For fun, please post back with any choice you make!

    Womandiyer,
    Your local hardware or homecenter store will have several large flanges ( actually called escutcheons ); you can stack the flanges and create a custom trim ring as needed to cover the hole in the wall & fit tightly to the shower arm pipe... we use a small bit of silicone caulk to glue the pieces together & hold them in place with painters tape until the caulk cures...

    You need Tub Spout Flange, like the one in the enclosed link. It fits perfectly over 1/2" I.P. shower arm, and is about 1" larger in size. It will easily cover the hole. It is made by Price Pfister so HD / Lowe's could carry it, too.

    Hope that helps
