  • Toilet Is Grouted To Tile

    I moved into my home and these idiots re-tiled the bathroom floor and then wrapped the tile around the toilet bowl and then grouted it so even if I un-bolt the two toilet fastening bolts, it's still stuck on from the tile. What can I use to cleanly release the grout from the base of the bowl so that I can replace this toilet?

    Thanks for any and all assistance!

    The grout shouldn't have that much holding power.
    Take a grout saw and cut around the toilet.
    Lift carefully, watching to be sure you're not loosening
    any of the surrounding tiles.

      Or use a wide flat spatula and gently tap the grout line between floor and base of the toilet, as mentioned the grout shouldn't have a great hold on the porcelain bowl.
      Little about a lot and a lot about a little.
      Every day is a learning day.
