    Tiolet flange problem
    I have a problem with my tiolet flange or pipe, my tiolet was rocking back and forth. I removed the tiolet to replace the flange and everything came up at the same time. After inspecting the floor I noticed a semi flange, looks like a flange. After two trips to Home depot, I came back to see what type of material my pipe was made of. It is cast iron, and it seems the flange is part of the pipe or it does not have a flange? After looking for some wood that the flange could be screwd to, I found concrete, and made a hole next to the pipe and was able to see under the house. Iam stumped?? do I need to replace the L shaped pipe under the house, or is it two pieces that have meshed together over years?? > What to do :confused:
