In reply to Ileana. Not sure because all toilets are different and whoever installed it in the first place may have done something different but...a lot of those covers are pressed into wax. I'd try gently twist/pulling it to see if there's any give to try to assess if that is the case. Then? Try something different. :-)

Great job. Now that I know what I am getting into ! I have that skirted toilet, but my task is to remove it in order to relocate it. How do I remove the covers to access the screws ?
I don’t want to break them 🤔

Hey there, Sandra! So for my August Upgrade Challenge starting next week, I am doing my kids’ bathroom, and I’ve got THE ugliest worn green toilet I will be replacing. My first toilet, too. I remembered you doing this toilet so I came back to find it. Oh, you can best believe I’ll be getting a 1-piece toilet, too! With 3 little boys, I can’t tell you how horrific the bathroom smells because of trapped pee. I’m eliminating THAT disguising problem!!! Thanks for the tutorial, and especially the tip about putting the wax ring ON the toilet first and not on the flange! 🙂

Amazing that you did this all by yourself when it is a work that most people would prefer hiring a professional for. I’m surprised though about how easy it seems to do. Got to start learning how to do stuff at home by myself to save up on costs. Thanks for the inspiration.

I was so excited for this toilet until I saw that it’s over $600!!! 🙁
