Toilets questions, answered by experts

A toilet flange secures your toilet in place to the floor, and connects your toilet to the drain pipe that carries its contents to the sewer. Obvious signs that your flange needs replacement include when it can’t keep up with these two functions. If your toilet rocks back and forth or you see leaks coming from the bottom of your toilet, it’s time for a replacement. Other signs that your toilet flange is broken or faulty may include loose tiles or soft flooring around the toilet, and sewage smells.

If you have to hold the toilet handle (also called the toilet lever) down to flush, you probably have a chain problem. A chain that cannot fully lift the flapper will close too early and not clear the toilet bowl. Try adjusting the chain length so there’s about ½ inch of slack.   

Yes, a toilet and shower can share a vent, which can simplify the plumbing installation and save space in your home. You’ll just need to make sure that the vent and associated plumbing are large enough to meet your local plumbing codes and handle the demands of both without compromising the efficacy of the vent. A qualified plumber can ensure that the vent is properly installed and adheres to local codes.

Whether wall-mounted or floor-mounted toilets are better comes down to personal preference.

Overall, standard floor-mount toilets are less expensive to purchase and install, but they don’t offer the streamlined, modern appearance and adjustable height of wall-hung toilets. Ease of cleaning should also be considered, as wall-hung toilets are easier to clean than standard models.

There are many ways to save money on your bathroom remodel—you don’t just have to rely on DIY. Proper planning and savvy design strategies can cut costs considerably. Save on pricey items like tiles and tubs by shopping sales and at discount stores. Alternatively, avoid major renovation work and focus on making affordable but impactful smaller changes such as upgrading hardware, installing new lighting, and introducing stylish but economical accessories.
