Watch on YouTube

What happens here

Begin by applying a generous bead of 100% silicone caulk around the top surface of the existing, low-set toilet flange. To achieve a thick bead, which is necessary for a good seal, lift the tip of the caulk gun slightly away from the flange as you apply the silicone. This bead will act as both a sealant and an adhesive for the flange spacers.

Goal: Seal the existing flange

Tools and materials

  • Caulk Gun — Applying silicone caulk from a tube
  • Silicone Caulk GE Advanced Silicone — Sealing and adhering the flange spacers

What they say

Hide

We're going to put those on with some silicone. He started to go a little bit too thin. What you want to do there is you want to go with a big thick bead of silicone and how you do that is actually pull it up off of the flange a little bit and then go around like this. All right and you're going to get a much bigger bead around there. You want to do that on every ring that you're going to install.
