I am in the process of remodeling a 1/2 bath in my house and am stuck with what to do with the flange. After pulling up the old tile floors the flange sits about 1 1/8" above the subfloor. The new floor is only going to be 3/8" thick. Based on some other posts I have read I am assuming I am gonna need to lower the flange. Before I start I want to be sure I get it right the first time.
The waste pipe and flange are PVC and in good condition. I don't have access to the pipe from underneath (finished basement). From what I gather I need to cut the existing flange and stick a new one on. I have enough room to get a hacksaw under the flange to cut it off. Will that do the trick or is there a better process?
I was ready to just hack it off today but figured I would check with the pro's first.
Thanks in advance for the help.
