In response to Re: toilet-offset flange
: I realy doubt the problem is with the offset flange, as the backing up has started in the last 2 weeks, unless the toilet installation was done 2 weeks ago. Are you sure there's not something inside the toilet, such as a comb, toothbrush, etc.., causing the backups. Marty : For about 2 weeks now i have had a problem with my toilet because of the offset flange.The toilet keeps backing up because of toilet paper not going down.I've been in my house for 13 years, and i've never had this to happen.The plumber keeps coming out to work on it but hasn't solved the problem. I'm told that there is not much that can be done. He mentioned that maybe we can move the toilet over, but i have ceramic tile and i know that will all be broken, and i'm not sure how far it can be moved over because it may be too close to the tub. Any suggestions? I'm very stressed out about this. Your prompt reply is appreciated. The plumber says there doesn't seem to be anything in the toilet causing this, but i'm not convinced yet, he seems to think it's the offset flange, i've been in this house for 13 years and i don't know why this should happen now
