Bought this house a year ago, noticed a urine smell from the toilet so I replaced the toilet with a new one. Later I was still getting the smell so I called a plumber who came and said the flange was not level with the tile floor, so he added some spacers and it was better (that was in oct/nov). Now that its warmed up again I notice the same smell coming from the toilet. Septic was pumped less than year ago.

I'm looking for ideas on what it could be before I call another plumber. I snapped this pic of the flange before the plumber added some spacers.
Thanks!

The flange should not be level with the floor it should be plumb to set on top of the finish floor. Did you notice any urine or moisture under the toilet when you pulled it ?
