What happens here

Place the new toilet flange over the reamed pipe opening. Carefully align the bolt holes on the flange in the desired position for the toilet. The video demonstrates using a measuring tape to ensure proper alignment, typically parallel to the back wall, which is crucial for the toilet to sit straight. This step is a dry-fit to confirm positioning before gluing.

Goal: Position the toilet flange correctly for toilet installation

Is this the best way to install a toilet flange on concrete? Remove the cover from your pipe. You're going to cut the pipe off. Use a hub reamer to make sure the pipe is flush to the floor. Clean that up. I like to align the bolt holes on my toilet flange for proper installation. Glue the flange in place. Get some concrete anchors and a hammer drill for easy hole drilling. Secure the flange with the anchors.
