Need to glue the toilet down

fluffymuffy

Our downstairs wc is not fixed down. It slithers forward over time until the pipes leak.

We realised why the last people (who installed it) didn't screw it down - there's underfloor heating in this area - hot water in pipes sort of heating, so I'm reluctant to drill a hole in the floor.

What sort of thing can I buy in a little tub to glue my toilet down?

Try no more nails. You can get it in most DIY sheds.

It would need to be a specialist product, not sure no more nails, sticks like !!!! et al will work. Don't know about CT 1.

You could try a largish bead of silicone around the pan, it may hold it in place, at least if it didn't work you could remove the silicone with no damage and try something else.

WC should really be properly fixed.

Are you sure the heating runs under the toilet, when we had underfloor heating installed the area under the basin and toilet were missed out.

OP if you use CT1 let me know how it works.

Ours was glued down with a silicon that dried clear, its lasted 7 years so far!

I used to work for a major sanitary ware manufacturer. we only ever advised to use silicone sealant.

Get a couple of thin pieces of wood or window shims only a couple if mm thick, slide them under the pan so it is just off the floor (this is so you can get the CT1 under the lip of the pan), go all the way round it with CT1 (clear or White), smooth it round (just like you would on the edge of a bath) then let it go off over nite, then take out the wedges/shims & fill in the gaps, sorted & it won't move, CT1 is b1oody brilliant expensive but good.

Another vote for silicone.

Yes you can use silicon but CT1 is better & far stronger
