I will try to post a photo later but here is my story:
Last night I removed the floor of my bathroom.Tile over mud with metal lath.
The closet flange seems to be fixed (soldered) to the lead waste pipe. Both the pipe and flange seem to be in good shape so I would rather not replace with pvc..
My question is:
Is this common?. Everything I read refers to the flange as being separate from the pipe.
One other question:If I tile right up to the underside of the flange how do I then place the bolt (or later replace the bolt if needed) if there is not space between the tile and the flange to accomodate the bolt head?
Thanks.
