If i have a gap between my toilet and floor.

I have tried many things but nothing seems to clean them completely. This wax ring seal is positioned between the toilet and the floor. Large gap around new toilet due to improper floor installation. Under every toilet is a large round wax seal.

After investigation realised there is a gap between the floor and the base of the toilet that makes it conducive for all kinds of fluids to pool in the gaps and start to fester. Viewed 2k times 3. I have another toilet to replace in the not too distant future and i expect that i will encounter the same problem. The orginal tile was 3 thick now with new subfloor and new tiles it is only 2 and have a gap of 1 for the toilet to f read more.

Just moved in to a new place and detected a mild stench from the bathroom. If necessary smooth the caulk with your finger wiping your finger clean frequently with a paper towel or a rag. I recently replaced one of my toilets and ran into a snag. Apply a thin even bead of caulk around the base of the toilet to cover the gap along the floor and hide the shims.

Once everything is stable and not moving cut off your shims at the base of the toilet so that nothing is sticking out and then use caulking to finish it off around the toilet. Caulk is unacceptable because of yellowing. I have hairspray buildup on my bathroom linoleum floor. It is harder and won t flex like caulking can.

Mix the grout fairly dry so that it doesn t sag and bridges the gap. What to use to fill a gap between toilet and floor. Constant attempts to soak it up. Active 8 months ago.

When a toilet leaks water from the bottom base on the bathroom floor you most likely have a worn out wax ring seal. Our toilet flange in a little high for the toilet we replaced the floor tile.
