Full bath renovation – the new toilet bowl is tilting over half an inch to the left. I am not sure if it is because the new floor tile install under it was not done properly and is not leveled. I notice it had wood pieces inserted ON THE RIGHT SIDE under it (mind you it make the toilet tilt to the left and it is now raised on the right), before the toilet was permanently sealed into the floor with silicone, and my contractor said he needs to change the ring or something to make it sit right. But last night I saw it has been permanently sealed, still with a couple of small pieces of wood under it, and that it is still tilted. I worry that – first of all the tilt is visible, and that those small pieces of wood with just some silicone holding it, there will be wear and tear over time and then the toilet will start rocking.

We mentioned it to him but he dismissed it. Somehow this doesn’t feel like something I can accept. Any suggestions?

If the toilet flange(ring) is too high, the toilet will be sitting directly on top of the flange and not being supported by the floor. Did the contractor state when the ring will be repaired? Get him/her on it, to make the proper toilet installation. Did you pay in full for the remodel?

The toilet MUST sit on the floor and NOT on the flange. When that is done, the only way the toilet can tilt is if the floor is crooked.

I am pretty sure the ring has been replaced, because I bought one but I will double check. We did not pay final installment. The floors has been redone, stripped down to concrete and re-tiled.
