Toilet flange replacement with spigot flange 

I work at Home Depot....Now I know about this type of flange... Thanks for a good video and good teaching of the work that needed to be done to complete this job. Thanks Al Sautner

Super helpful brother! Thanks for the video. I didn’t want to be hammering or chiseling old Abs like I saw in other tutorials. This looks to be by far the best method I have seen so far.

Excellent video! One of the most articulately explaned videos i've seen!

As thorough as my borough....great content and tutorial. Bravo!

Wow! I didn't even know that they make a flange that fits over the old union! Thanks, you cured my headache! Hopefully the box stores carry one.

Thanks for the tips Brian! I like the large screw driver - new tool for my tool box!

Thanks, my friend. I have had a bit of a hassle with replacing my closet flange. When I pulled the old 40 year old toilet, I could see there was a rusty, bent metal ring with red flaking paint. I cut this metal away, went to the store for a new two piece screw together flange, which they didn't have. So I bought a few tools to get the old PVC fitting out and a new PVC flange ring in. Well, I spent close to 5 hours last Sunday with a cold chisel busting away a bunch of hard concrete so the new PVC flange would sit down closer to level with the floor surface. It is about 1/4" above floor. I used a Fluidmaster 7530 blue rubber seal to get us back in business for a few days till I can screw the flange to the concrete. I'm tempted to just poly adhesive the business in place and forget the screws. I can reuse the blue seal. I hate plumbing projects. They always turn south when I hope otherwise. Thanks for showing what I pretty much did. Bob

Thank you for helping me with my exact situation! The only difference with is I have to cut the Spicket out of a elbow instead of straight pipe. Thanks my friend!

Excellently done and demonstrated, very professional 👏 thanks a lot. I can do it now.

Thank you so much! Made it easy for a first time DYI flange removal and reinstall!

Many thanks. I just used a Danco Hydroseat toilet flange to mount over my existing flange, which was bent and rotated 90 degrees to correct, because I didn't know how to remove the existing flange. Your method looks great. Really appreciate it.

Thank you for the demonstration. Great explanation.

Thank you man that really give me a very good idea thanks for the video make more

This should have a million views

The tutorial is greatly appreciated your a beast. Subbed can't wait to see more projects.

Perfect tutorial! Thanks!

ABSOLUTE GENIUS! EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR.

Great video, you saved me a lot of time in my project

That was helpful. Now I have to go back to the hardware store for the 3rd time but at least I know what I'm doing lol. Thanks!

Great I enjoy your video’s keep up the good work 👍

Nice tips brother i appreciate you passing on your knowledge on this matter 👍

Thank you your clear instructions 😊

Thanks really good videos

OK first, thank you for ALL your videos. I'm pretty confident in my reno skills but I'll admit, the bathroom on this 1965 stick built is teaching me LOTS. Question, when the house has settled and concrete (tile floor from 65) plus sub is deteriorating, what's the best way to build it back up so my flange replacement can grab something? I've got a good inch n half void on one side of drain pipe. (BTW the drill trick works wonders on lead)

Thanks that was very helpful.

They make it look easy

Well done! Going into my library!

Great video my guy 👍🏾

Nicely done

Really great video (good lighting, camera angle, and audio)! I found this because I’m in the process of renovating my bathroom, and was trying to figure out how to replace my ABS toilet flange (it’s one like this where the metal outside ring can rotate, which I now know is called a spigot style flange). My question is, for the flange you removed, was it glued inside of the elbow, and the new flange you put on glued to the outside of the elbow?

Thank you for your video

nice video but i woulden't what to use those flanges with the metal rings. i use the solid plastic ones

Thank you!

Great job bro! 👍 If you can fix it.... 🤪

So question. Is it necessary to build up the floor around it? I don't have anything to screw the flange into. It's just open. Someone suggested to use concrete, but when I think about it, there is nothing to hold its weight up. I'm thinking that flange may be my answer. Please give some suggestions! Thanks

Good job...Never seen that type of flange..Thanks. Al

When you pushed down the red/new flange, did you align 9 and 3' O Clocks for the bolts?

This is the second one for the basement bat. ru-vid.comUgkxOuLt8IL_GxhhaK8DBuKEL-zV0UJVpWZn , works great

Didn't know they mad a flange that went over a hub. Interesting.

I really enjoyed your well explained video. I am about to remove my old rusted toilet flange. I am not sure mine is the same as your or not. Can I send you some pictures?

got any videos on taking out a lead toilet flange with three 1 1/2 inch pipes going into it then going into cast iron ? just have to take that mess out and replace it with pvc connecting to threaded brass pipes running to kitchen sink bathroom sink and shower

I really like your video, but I want to know if it’s also fit in cast and lead pipe. Thanks

About the screws you used to secure the flange to the floor ? My floor is concrete and concrete is in bad condition. Any fix for my problem ?

Spigot would be the outside diameter of the pipe you’re tying on to. The flange is actually a “socket end”

Hey that fix-it guy - Question? How do you cut off the type that is 4" pipe straight up with a metal ring around the top, but you cannot see the inside pipe? Thanks Tony

That metal flange is gonna rush out just like the old one did should have used a solid plastic flange

That's a pretty cool idea. Except what about the next guy in twenty years when they have to replace that.. They are really screwed.

Awesome job, i think i am calling a plumber...lol

Great video. I think this is exactly my situation, but can you confirm?? It would be so helpful if while talking through the repair you would state the pipe and flange sizes and i.d./o.d. I have a 3" i.d. PVC drain pipe with 3x4 flange over the outside of that. Flange is badly broken and at wrong height for my new floor so really needs to be replaced, but it's solvent welded... I've seen people cutting and prying and heating and peeling, but it does not really seem promising. Is this a solution for me? I think if I cut it flush, my pipe plus flange remains would be 4" o.d. and a 4" spigot flange would be 4" i.d. that would slip over the top? If so, well damn, that would be amazing. If not, any suggestions for my situation?

So are you starting with a 3 inch pipe that has a hub over it and the total width is 4"

Hello, how can you fix a cracked pipe when trying to place the flange?

havent seen that spigot flange in canada

Is there a spigot flange to fit over a 4" hub?

Do you know the part number or barcode for the flange?

Why glue when it's a part that's meant to be replaced?

😉👍

To think the other day I was crawling back and forth replacing the entire thing...

👍

I signed in just to give you a thumbs up and subscribe. I’ve been doing construction for a long time and never once did. I know you could do this with a new flange. You definitely made my day! Excited to try it today.

The explanation looks good, but he does not wear gloves and does not measure consequences.

Repair flange would have been done and toilet reset in 20 minutes

Only used glue to hold it down.... Not good at all

Maybe dont block what your doing ao we can see. Thanks for wasting both our time!
