    Good luck to the next plumber who has to fix this 4 months from now since the flange was overscrewed and the seal will crack. They won't be able to get those nuts because they were trimmed so short, hopefully they have a friend with some high level power tools who can come save them.

    I once replaced a toilet in my home that had both flange bolts bent over like in your video. Is this something some plumbers intentionally do to keep the nuts from loosening? Nice video.

    is this product a good idea if the gasket hole perimeter is less defined or do I need to tile a new circle? One side has about an inch of space between edge of gasket to the tile edge but the other is about an inch and a half to two inches from the outside edge of old gasket to the tile's edge. Thank you in advance for any assistance. I appreciate it.

      That’s not a good idea, though a lot of ppl do it. If you ever have a leak you won’t know about it while the trapped water damages your floor. A compromise is to caulk or grout it but leave a gap in the back for water to escape.

    if you use a spacer you have to seal between the yellow flange and the red spacer with caulking. too bad you only get one gasket and it's so expensive. otherwise its the best repair flange ever.
