[DIY] Re: Toilet flange is too high

 



If I could not seat the toilet all the way down to the floor
I might consider Marine grade polyethelene (sp?) or polymer..
I have a sample of this and it lasts forever in seawater I am told
and is really tough and seemingly will last longer than
post nuclear event cockroaches...

It is pricey thou...running about $15-20 a square foot but worth
every dime....comes in various thicknesses and you can probably
'find a cut-off of a couple or 1.5 square ft to cut in the shape of the
toilet footprint. It is a nice white color.
