I just put in a new laminate floor in my bathroom. Now my floor is about 1/4" taller than the toilet flange. I really want to install correctly because the previous toilet had some type of seal leak at the flange and discolored the surrounding linoleum.
I have purchased two solutions and want to do the one that would be most appropriate for this height difference.
First option: Sioux Chief 1/4" plastic spacer. Using one would get me level. Using two would put the height above the floow. I would put silicone between the spacer and flange and between the spacers if I needed two. I could also wait a few days and buy a single 7/8" spacer from Sioux Chief if that would be better (even though the Sioux Chief website says the thinner ones can be stacked).
Second option: Install double was rings. If this then what sizes/types?
Thank you for your help!
