Hey whats the best method of sticking a toilet to a screeded floor? Have to stick it due to it having underfloor heating.
 
Silicone seal around the base of the pan. Stops liquids from running under the pan. Also easier to remove pan when required by running a Stanley knife around the base breaking the seal.

Is a silicone seal around the base enough to hold it in place?
 
No of course silly me, I just advised it for a laugh. :roll: I always use the appropriate fixings as I don't install underfloor heating where a WC will be fitted. But I always silicone seal around the base. I've removed wash hand basins where rough ar**d plumbers have sat the basin on the pedestal and secured the basin to the wall using only silicone, (i.e. Without the bolts or brackets). Usually the only way they come off is by ripping off half of the tiles, fixed on the wall by tile adhesive.
