It is generally best to use a new wax ring when reinstalling the toilet. Fit the toilet flange replace the subfloor and the finish flooring.

The concrete was only a few inches thick. The first is that it connects the floor drain to the drain of your toilet. I used an air chisel to chip out the concrete around the drain. When the toilet is in place run a bead of silicone caulk along the seam between the base of the toilet and the floor.

This could be because of leaks or overflows. Install the toilet closet flange on top of the flooring by solvent gluing it to the drain stub out and screwing the flange down to the subfloor.

Ok you can fill the void with grout for a solid seal. If you have the drain pipes and vents exposed you can build another floor for the toilet and have the toilet drain in the false floor traveling to the exposed stack vent pipe. For example when the floor is mopped with a lot of water the toilet tank leaks or if the toilet. Then convert the bedroom and laundry at the other end of the house into a master with ensuite bath closing that exit and finding a way to add an exit from the back of the house for access to the carport.
