Toilet Flange Height Too High. First, you can pack grout into the gap. To fix this, you may need to trim the pvc pipe beneath to lower the flange to its proper height. So now that you are currently renovating your bathroom.
Break the flange off and see what height it is, get one an inch shorter, and yarn and pour it back on.
Are there any toilets out there that accommodate for a flange that is too high?? I have seen on the web a product called a toilet floor plate (quikfixplumbing.com i think) that essentially is a decorative plate that goes completely under the toilet base and then some to. What then do you do when the toilet flange is too high? Had an old 4 bolt toilet. I understand the flange height should be 3/8 to 1/2 above the finished floor, so you are okay on one side. Ideally, how should the height of the toilet flange compare to the finished tile foor? Is your toilet flange too high? I've looked and lookedd but can't find at what height the toilet mounting flange is to be from the finished floor for correct installation of a wax ring and toilet bowl.
