How to Remove Old Toilet Flange

Does your toilet move too much, wobble or rock, or does it leak on the floor? This could be a sign that you need to remove and replace your old toilet flange. It is what connects the toilet to the floor and the waste pipe below it. It is usually made of cast iron in many older homes, so the metal is extremely brittle and can break or crack over time. This makes the toilet unstable or prone to leakages. More modern bathroom fixtures will have a toilet flange made from PVC, which can be easier to remove. On the other hand, an older cast iron toilet flange will take more patience and effort.
