A toilet flange includes a body that is a made of a rigid material and that includes i) a hollow cylindrical portion having two longitudinal ends, and ii) a flange portion that extends radially outward from the hollow cylindrical portion at one of the two longitudinal ends thereof; and an annular seal member that is made of a resilient material and that is integrated into the one-piece body so as to extend from the flange portion on a side thereof opposite the hollow cylindrical portion coaxially therewith. The resiliency of the seal member allows a range of movement thereof during installation of a toilet bowl to the toilet flange. This contributes to maintaining the integrity of the seal. Also, the integration of the seal member to the body prevents displacement of the seal relative to the body, yielding a more precise installation of the toilet bowl.
