    Inside fit closet flange 3"

    i am glad i did it. i didnt feel good about that flange i put in and everyone here backed that fear up. i was lucky that it only took me about 1 1/2 hrs to resolve. a hammer drill and dremmel tool really saved me. 1st time around i had an air hammer but didnt this time.

    Inside fit closet flange 3"

    i'd also like to point out that while i am happy to have a toilet, i am not too impressed with the holer memoirs. loud and gurgles. have to hold the handle down to get a good flush. seat is way too much like a chair and the hole is smaller than i would expect. going to get a new seat if...

    toilet flange question. did i screw up?

    well, we all got a chuckle out of this... "You will end up doing a new floor shortly! You'll be able to get it right then!" enough said, since the floor hasn't even been used yet. i will start digging tonight. i suspect i will be back before it is done with more questions. i do have one...

    toilet flange question. did i screw up?

    is the circumference of wax rings all the same? looking at the ones i have seem to be larger than the depression in this flange. i was going to see if i can find a ring today that doesnt have the flange in it. thanks

    toilet flange question. did i screw up?

    toilet flange question. did i screw up?

    i installed what i thought would be a workable solution but i fear i may have screwed up. i used an Oatey inside? flange because when i evaluated what i had left on my pipe, it didnt seem possible to do it any other way due to how close i had to cut back to the P-trap. this was installed a...

    Which recessed lighting over pool table?

    what about moving the fan to center and using a fan/lighting arrangement. personally, i'd scrap the fan and do hanging lights - the cone type halogens or something that goes with the pool table. but i don't have much taste. or can u center the fan or will that look odd in the room? may...

    What's in a faucet?

    I saw the poll - informative. My question is what is in a faucet and what do I need to look out for? I am remodeling and we have decided to go with wall mounted faucets however our budget doesnt appear to be there for any of them. I checked Kohler and found a 400.00 unit that required a 200.00...

    toilet flange questions

    Thanks Gary, Good point about 3". I didnt think about the 3" making it too small. Of course I had bought one at the local Ace, told em what size it was and they still gave me a 4". I am taking it back today and get what you recommend. I think it won't be too bad because it looks like there...

    toilet flange questions

    I removed my toilet in the midst of a remodel and found the flange is broken off. I am on a slab and the flange was glued to the outside of the PVC drain pipe. The inside of the drain measures 3". Is that a 3" pipe? I was considering the type of flange that slips inside but have concerns...
