Repair loose toilet bowl

Just purchased a home....and Ive got some dis-coloring on the bathroom flooring...caused by a loose toilet bowl....whats the best remedies to repair the toilet bowl...a certain type on bonding glue??...thanks. Shakey


Ummmm There's more to it.

Loose bowl + discoloring likely means the wax seal under the bowl is leaking small amounts of waste water.

The fix requires pulling the toilet off the floor and replacing the seal, then bolting back down solidly.

It's a subject that is covered here almost weekly. Go to:

Do a search for "wax seal" (or similar) and use: alt.home.repair for the newsgroup. (Got almost 1000 hits)
