toilet wobbled, tried to level with plastic shims and tighten flange bolts ... got looser
i thinkthe flange was secured only by the cement around it and perhaps by the rim? of the cast iron? pipe .. . when i removed the toilet i found the rim of the drain pipe broken off ... drain pipe almost even with the cement below the tile floor, and cement around the drain pipe somewhat crumbling ... what can i do to resolve the drain pipe problem and secure a new flange?
thanks in advance
