What is it u say you understand why he argues against it?

Plumber not saying prohibited he’s saying might cause clogging later on. Horizontal line just installed.

Ty Terry. Plumber just installed new pipes dt old ones fell apart but said installing a cleanout dt it’s a horizontal line might cause potential clogging later on. Is this true? one of reason is because alot of plumbers won’t even unclog if no cleanout. They come and leave. Won’t even...

Is a cleanout for kitchen sink from a horizontal line ok or will it cause clogging. Plumber telling me this

Hi there guys, sorry it took so long to update. I finally saw no wetness on paper towels around 3/6/21. So basically took 9 days for dry out time. Could have been too because tub by toilet, so when showering the pressure on standing in tub could have been pushing left behind water out towards...

Hey everyone, just let you know there is still some water on paper towels but not as much. Going to wait couple more days.

Lol. I was just wondering the same thing.

Guy called - he was willing to come over today. It’s been about an hour that I did the 6x flush and check paper towel and very little h20. He still thinks I should wait til everything dried up from previous leak but he would come out. He says he would change it to a jumbo wax ring. Pretty...

You saw pics of flange. Do you think that needed cleaning better before new put on?

Ty plumbnuts. If he were to install another ring, should it be a regular ring with horn and place on top of current or does he need to replace the one he put on and do the 2 regular ring thing, you know regular ring without horn then horned ring on top? Is wax ring protecting against a leak...

And then here is another question. What happens to a wax ring while it’s in there. Since I believe these paper towels are touching the wax ring is it just collecting moisture from the wax ring cause the coloring on it(see pic) i put paper towels at front of toilet where there is openings due to...

Wjcandee i was wondering do all toilets have the same size toilet base horn meaning do some stick out further or are some with a shorter horn because if that were the case and since this toilet is on top of tile now and not on the floor and there is prob at least a 1/4” or more recessed area...

Ty wjcandd. You explained everything well btw. I checked the tank to bowl connection and bolts. The metal washer is on the outside. I don't see or feel any water draining or dripping anywhere above bowl. I look thru the right base bolt hole and can see wax squished around it. The other side...

Is there a brand of wax rings you guys find better than other i.e. Fluid master vs johni-ring vs Oatey, vs ace hardware?

The installer coming tomorrow to see. By looking at the flange above, do you think he should have done more scraping to get old wax off and may be that's why not good seal. He wiped up all the chipped ceramic but I watched and he didn't scrape anything. To me it looks pretty cruddy. These are...

Lol

K. Please know that I appreciate everyone’s help on this. I’m so stressed about this. ( you don’t want to live in my head lol) and getting feedback from you all helps. I’m trying to look at all the things in my life that are working well instead of this one thing that’s not. Seems to help.

Ty Terry, it looked dry. Those pics above were taken few minutes after toilet removed but I suppose just because looks dry doesn’t necessarily mean so. Also can you tell if that ring in pic above is a thick one? I will try fan and toilet seems flat and not rocking.

Yes I was looking at those on internet last night. Do people get good results with those?
