Make sure if you buy a new toilet bowl that the depth is correct size for the wall of your bathroom and also that the toilet has a smooth coating on the inside of the bowl so that waste goes down easily and does not clog.A friend of mine that owns a 140 unit complex started putting in the cheapest bowls that did not have the smooth coating and the smaller opening and plumber and maintenance calls to unclog went through the roof.

You can have something built to code but not permitted, while something that's permitted is automatically built to code.In my area, the city requires a permit for any work on a house that exceeds $500 - i.e. it's mainly there to make money for the broke municipality - including paint, tile, flooring, any concrete work, door and window replacement, you name it.
