Hi Guys....
I just had a question on reinstalling my toilet after we had 1/4" ceramic tile installed. Should I use two wax rings to adjust for the new height ? What about the flange expanders at Home Depot ? I've heard different suggestions from the tile guy and wondered what would be the best to prevent leaks.
Thanks for the help........Tony.

Flange extenders (I believe a package of three w/caulking) then your wax ring (only 1)...and you're good to go.

Likewise, I use the flange extenders and one wax ring with bell. However, Oatey makes a #10 or #11 ring with extra height to make up for slight variations in floor level. Haven't had the occasion to use one, but looks like it would work just fine.
