toilet flange disaster

Apr 02, 2007 3 Replies

I've installed a half dozen toilets but never had this problem. after removing the toilet to install a new vynal floor i put the toilet back on using a new wax ring. when i first flushed it it seemed most of the water poured down into the basement. a little water was seeping out from under the toilet. i thought it might be the wax ring so i replaced it again with a thicker ring. same results. someone suggested that perhaps one of my kids stepped on the flange and broke it although it doesn't appear broken. any help would be appreciated.



Or the plastic insert from the old wax ring is still on the horn and the water is leaking between 2 of them.
