Best Way To Install A Toilet Flange On Concrete? #plumber #plumbing #diy #homerepair

What happens here

After cutting the pipe, attach a hub reamer to a power drill. Insert the reamer into the cut pipe and activate the drill to ream the inside edge of the pipe. This process ensures the pipe's opening is smooth and perfectly flush with the floor, removing any burrs or unevenness. Once reamed, thoroughly clean the pipe interior and the surrounding area of any debris, shavings, or dust.

Goal: Ensure the pipe is perfectly flush and clean for flange adhesion

Tools and materials

  • Cleaning Rag — Cleaning up debris and dust

  • Power Drill Ryobi — Operating the hub reamer

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.
