This is what you want to do if you're having a hard time removing the toilet bolts
Just break the toilet and the bass
As you can see this is one of the biggest problems that they have with the toilet
The floor is starting to fall apart
And when this happens the toilet gets loose and starts moving back and forth
And this is not good for the wax ring or seal
What we're going to do here is we're going to remove this floor and replace it with a new floor
And that will make it a lot stronger so the new toilet will be stable the when its set on the new floor
Let's get the old wax ring out of here
And we're going to clean up this little spot right here
The flange is also broke and were going to replace the old flange
This is an old cast iron flange and cast iron pipe
If you're familiar with the old lead and oakum this cast iron flange has been installed with lead and oakum
But we're going to do something different on this flange replacement
Melting lead and using oakum is not required for what we're going to do
And we're going to finish getting the rest of this floor out
And what we're doing here is cutting each side of the flange so we can remove the flange in pieces
What we're using here is a side angle grinder
And we have a diamond blade on it
This makes it easy to cut right through cast iron or and hard metal brick pretty much any hard subs tent
Ok, now that you see we have the cut
We have the cut on the side
What we're going to do here is take our pry bar
Or what ever we have and just pry it loose and off
See how it comes apart fight in half were just going to pull that old flange off of there
You can see the old lead
And of course, this is a bottom view of the floor that's going to be replaced
And the toilet flange that's what it's called
This here is a repair flange
This is A cast iron repair flange
Notice the rubber in the middle
This is what's going to seal the pipe and the flange from any leaks from up under the whenever the toilet is flush
And it should just fit right over the pipe
If not just pull it back up and make adjustments that will open it up to fit
Now the only thing left to do
Tightens the bolts
Where it will compress the rubber ring together, causing a nice tight seal
And of course before setting the toilet to clean the pipe out very good.
And screw the flange down to the floor
