Im planning on putting new flooring in my upstairs bathroom. This will raise my floor approx. 3/4 of an inch. I fear this will leave a gap between my pipe and the bottom of my toliet. Is there anyway I can close this gap. Raising or replacing the old cast iron pipe is out of the question. My other option is to build the floor around my toliet. I dont want to do that!
