After installing a new toilet I left it for a few days to ensure leak free before 'sealing in'. When I went to check I had a leaking pan connector pipe (a slight drip at the bottom of the connector). The pipe I had was a cheap B&Q flexi so I thought I may need a better fitting one and went to local plumbers merchants where I got a MacApline one with jubilee clip.
After changing the connector and tightening up the jubilee clip as tight as I dare I still have a leak. Upon further inspection I notice a fair sized groove in the outlet pipe and I suspect this is the cause (see attached picture). My initial reaction is to request a new toilet unless these imperfections are expected?? I'd be interested to here peoples thoughts on if I should swap or can this issue be resolved?
