Same thing with replacing a toilet. Have lived in the house for over 40 years. Knew that the bolts were broken. Unsure about the flanges. Hired a neighbor who was a plumber - off the books. I bought the toilet and hauled it home. The professional had a real challenge.
All rusty bolts. so out came the hammer...SIL wondered what I was going to do with that.
One good wack per bolt ( water prev drained ) and all good, had him take it out so he'd get messy.
Took about 2 hr and the new one was in place and working... only got a 6 pack and a peck on cheek.
