2 YEAR FOLLOW-UP to Toilet Flange Fix / Also, Compare Different Toilet Seals

Video Description

Previously, I made a video showing my toilet flange fix. It was a rusty, off-level and unsupported toilet flange. I went far and above what anyone would normally do to fix it, but in the comments I was told by professional plumbers that I didn't repair it correctly. Maybe they were right. In this video, I pull up my toilet two years later to see if my flange repairs held up. Who was right - the DIY guy or the professionals? I also compare various rubber toilet seals to find one that's right for my project. Besides plain wax rings, the brands include Danco HydroCap, HydroSeat, Perfect Seal, as well as Fluidmaster Better Than Wax and Sani Seal.
