    I'm a 70 year old female (yes, I've got the right website) and I've just completed my first plumbing job thanks to this great video which gave me the confidence to give it a try. Unfortunately I came across a problem which had not been covered...a heavily corroded metal clamp. I discovered that a coke and toothbrush would do the job....worked perfectly, had a can in the fridge but won't be able to clean my teeth tonight..yes..still got my own!....thanks again for the help.

    Massive help. Plumber who installed the bathroom. Blamed the donut for the leakage. Changed it for a good one. Leakage is worse this time. got him back again. The ornamental pond emanating from the toilet is condensation according to him. So thank you, I'm sorting this out myself with the Bog Guru's guidence👍

    Thank you for such a brilliant video! I had to change the insides of my parent's toilet system as it was constantly filling up, so brought a "complete flush kit" from B&Q for £16. I was dreading doing the job, but after watching this - I knew what to expect and how to handle it!

    @debpettit3797 6 лет назад +2

    Thank goodness for your videos!! Just replaced dual flush valve which was somewhat complicated by the person who fitted it had siliconed the cistern to the pan. I persevered and totally rogered a kitchen knife! and now have a toilet that is working properly for the first time since we moved here. I would never have had the confidence to tackle this without your advice....you are my hero!!!! Thank you.

  • @HRJ1411
    @HRJ1411 11 лет назад

    Well today I changed everything inside the cistern, no way I would've been able to without watching this video, having watched it twice it actually was very straight forward, thanks for your help. Btw, huge amount of sealant and gunk under the cistern from when fitted - and that was the house builder!! Wtf?!

    Great Video! I am an electrician, doing my BA Honors in Film and Documentary now, the final year. As an electrician for 35 years,, I had to be able to do bits of everything but cisterns were always a no-go area for me. Took on a project a few weeks ago for my brother doing up his bathroom, full works. I have a Wooden WC unit in order to hide the cistern completely. The toilet will be backed up against the unit so no pipes or wastes will be seen. I will be mounting the flush button on the wooden unit instead of the cistern. I am a bit nervous but hope it is the same thing, If any tips, tell me. Thank you.

  • @frasergray2862
    @frasergray2862 10 лет назад

    Good clear video fella. Problem here though. I can't get adequate access to my water connection on the tank due to a wall on the same side. The toilet drain goes sideways into this wall too, which doesn't help. It's impossible to get onto the connection with a regular spanner.
    Is there a tool that I could get that would be able to undo the connector from below (in the same way that you could turn a bolt with a socket on an arm)?

    Hi Plumbparts, You successfully guided me through changing a Push Button Flush Unit - Thanks a lot you really helped me understand the process. Just one point though, on your video at 3.24 you said that, in the package was 'another doughnut' which you don't tend to use. Are you sure it was a doughnut and not a cistern seal adaptor for a larger bore outlet? Just asking because I needed the this adptorvfor my DIY task! Thanks again, my wife is looking forward to me watching more of your channels!
