Hi there,
I'm an amputee and have begun a renovation of the master bathroom to have a walk-in shower. We've decided to raise the floor rather than cut into the joists to accommodate the drain and get the necessary slope.
The issue is that the floor will likely have to be raised 3" to 4" inches and so the toilet needs to be raised the same amount.
What are my choices to raise the toilet to the new floor height? I see many products that permit the flange to be raised - but at most 2.25". Do I have to get someone to raise the waste pipe in the floor? Do they need to open up the subfloor to do so or can they simply extend the pipe?
Need some advice please,
Danny
