Installed a Champion toilet yesterday. I checked the tile floor and it was flat & even. The toilet rocked a bit during the dry fit check. I didn't see a reason for it. I used 4 thin shims around the base to get it dead level & eliminate the rocking.
The flange was about ⅜ below flush so I stacked 2 rings.
No leaks & feels solid.
My question is... Since the base is barely shimmed up off the floor can I just caulk around it and call it good, or should I stuff something under the base for more support? And what should I use - - make up some thick plaster? Grout...?
And when there's not much gap do you mash it in there with fingers or maybe squeeze it in with a pastry bag (Ziploc with the corner snipped off)?
