Installing Flooring Around Toilet Flange

Then i leave a gap of 1 4 or so to the rest of the flooring that will be.

Installing flooring around toilet flange.

A small curve around the toilet base will be left untiled as the square tiles will not meet the shape of the flange. Tile the areas away from the toilet flange first. So what i am thinking is i basically cut a round or square i guess now that i think about it piece to go under the flange. Don t tile around the toilet flange the circular piece that connects to the drain pipe and upon which the toilet itself will rest until the end.

The installation process is the same for a tile floor a hardwood or carpeted bathroom floor. If it will simply sit on top of the flooring with legs then the flooring will go throughout the whole space. A flange extender is easy to install it. When tiling a bathroom mark out your desired grid pattern on the floor and lay tile over the unobstructed areas first.

As for the toilet you will want to get the flange to floor level. If the vanity is like a cabinet and will not have space between it and the floor you will install the vanity and then install flooring around it. Step 2 prepare the templates using the measuring tape measure the flange s diameter and add an additional inch to the entire measurement on the outside. If the flooring raises the toilet more than 1 2 inch off the flange install a flange extender or a conventional wax ring may not seal the toilet.
