I had a handyman do bathroom remodel including new floor tile and new toilet.
The toilet installed was defective ( not his fault) so Kohler has sent a new toilet .
Now, when I removed the old toilet, I found that one flange bolt was spinning.
On inspection, it looks like he made a bad tile cut and so the bolt has no tile below ... it is hanging on air and he put it in place using a plastic washer.
Question --
Do I need to remove the flange put a base and out it back
Or
Can I use a nut on the flange to hold the bolt and then put toilet and another nut to hold the toilet ?
Measured -- the nut easily passes through the hole in toilet base.
