A rocking or wobbly toilet means that the porcelain bowl is not making uniform, solid contact with the finished floor, usually due to uneven tile installation, a loose floor flange, or loose anchor bolts. This movement is a serious warning sign because every time someone sits down, the rocking motion stresses and compromises the wax ring seal underneath, which will eventually allow unsanitary wastewater to leak out onto your subfloor. Verification: Inspect the floor around the base for dampness and check if the bowl shifts when pressure is applied.
