Dude, i learn a lot from watching your vids. You clearly explain everything. I truly believe you should have your own show on one of those home improvement channels.
I discovered your channel recently and you’re the guy I want to watch all the time now! You are such a great professional, you should have your own tv show!
Thank you for making the video. Very helpful. I am watching most of your videos as a first time home owner, I am following exactly the procedure your are recommending and the results are great. You saved me a lot of money.
Sir, I have watched countless videos of yours. You have inspired me soooo much! My very first project this year, am going to task a new bathroom! Mainly I will be installing a new loo. Not fearing at all, because of you. Wish me luck Many thanks for inspiring and helping us homeowners saving $$$$.
Hi Jeff. Great how to videos. Please ignore some of the negative comments on here. For every negative comment on here, you have helped a thousand do it yourselfers like myself. Keep up the great videos Jeff!
@@HomeRenoVisionDIY I think this is a really good video, I just wouldn't use proflo toilets. Although on the pricier side, toto drakes are pretty good, and so are kohler wellworths and highlines.
Awesome video. Getting ready to do a remodel of the bathroom and these videos have definitely helped me to see and do what needs to be done. Thank you.
Thank you for all of your videos. My girlfriend and I remodeled her bathroom with your videos as our main source of information; it turned out really well
You make everything look so easy. I've changed the faucet in my kitchen recently. Man, if you do not have the right tools, it is a nightmare. And the drain pipe broke half the way (it was an old jerry rigged one with duct tape), got to run to the store while standing in knee deep water :D Such fun times. But it made it extremely satisfied when everything was done.
8:00 "safety first; but who says you cant be cool while you are safe" dude is such a bad ass! lol thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge man! you have saved us so much money so far in our rental renovation! hope to see you on your own TV show soon!
Great video and thanks for sharing your knowledge and I always learn from your video...Also I think that plastic ring you glued to that cut down pipe melt to be secure with the couple of screws before toilet 🚽 seat fix to it.
Love your videos. I thought you were supposed to tie that flange down with some screws after gluing it. Did I miss it? Thank you sir. You inspire me to do more. :)
First thing I usually do when bolting the toilet to the floor is I usually will add a small rubber washer between the nut and the plastic cap retainer that way I can tighten the toilet down till I see that nitril or rubber washer start to squeeze out and I stop tightening at that point. Next is for the Toilet Supply Line I always leave the tag on so that way in the future it's easier to know exact what supply line you may need and makes it easier for the next plumber if it's not you later down the road. Fun video though!
I always have to double check with Jeff to get confirmation or to teach me what I dont know. Thank you for this. Gives a novice great confidence. Have to ask though what if you do have water in your inlet valve line and its causing loud vibration? This is a serious problem.
love all your videos man! great work you do everything the right way make it look easy and clean.. i appreciate all the videos mainly because i just bought a house and im a diyer and need the info step by step :D
Wow!!! You guys are awesome! Thanks for posting this and other great how-to videos. I was looking for help on precisely this. You all have been great inspiration for me on a diy shower reno. Thanks for the great work. P. S. Don't mind the haters.
I am enjoying all the videos, thanks for helping us out! I do have one request, can you make a video of how to change from a traditional toilet on concrete floor to a wall hanging toilet including rough in plumbing, wall framing and bowl intalation, please?
I think you're converting me to Pex, next time I need to change something. Nice job. Haha on the bolts. You can get shorter t-bolts at woodworking stores. In Canada, LeeValley sells them.
Fantastic! Thank you for your painstaking work more grease to your elbow and more wisdom always. What sealant can you recommend for sealing the toilet to the floor. Thank you.
Hi, love your videos. Your such an inspiration for DIY. Do you have a video to offset a toilet? I would like to move mine to the right of it's present position.
As always great video just as a reminder to people. If you can keep the guard on a grinder. In the rare event the disk explodes it hopefully will not slice through your hand. Had a disk explode once. Guard helped me there a ton. Other than that great video!
Hey man, you’re videos help me a lot. Just want to throw a pointer your direction. I didn’t read all comments so this may have been mentioned. The shark bite valves are made to press on. Little teeth inside grab the pipe and hold it in place. Clean the pipe prior to pushing it on; otherwise debris on the pipe can interfere with proper teeth grip if you will. Also the decorative flange, is actually the tool you can use to remove the shark bite valve if ever needed. You put it on backward, if that valve was ever pressed into the wall that flange could loosen the valve and cause a leak. It’s suppose to cover that yellow ring. Just a heads up is all. Awesome videos!
LOVE your videos! I'm a diy grandma and need to reinstall my one-piece toilet on new tile. It's SO heavy for me that I worry I won't have the control necessary to place it accurately. Any tips for those who lack strength? Thanks!
Thanks again for another great video. I live in a renovated warehouse where there are four units. When I replaced my toilet recently, I used the waxless ring to attach it. Now, whenever anyone in the complex flushes the toilet I hear it pretty loudly in my bathroom. Is this because of the lack of wax ring or is there any other way to avoid having to hear every other toilet in the complex flush in my bathroom?
Thanks for the info about ProFlo. We have them throughout the house from the builder, and I was wanting to pick one up for our new basement bathroom but didn't know where they were supplied here in Saskatoon. Quick Google for Wolseley and now I know!
Great video again thanks. When the builder installed my toilets, he filled the underside with concrete, then put some on the ground, and sat it on it. Very different to your method there.
I just moved into a house in Mexico and a few contractors have told me I need to put down concrete/plaster instead of the wax seal. I have changed a toilet before, but never heard of laying concrete down instead of a wax seal. One said, it was because little critters can come up through the plumbing and eat through the wax seal and provides a better seal. My question is, Is it absolutely required to use concrete? or have you heard of this before? it's so much faster and easier to just use the wax seal just like you did in this video. Also I just subscribed and love your videos! Thank you!
Hi Jeff. NIce video. I was always wondering if there is a gap between the cistern and and wall, will it matter?? I am just curious the fact if some one heavily leans agains the cistern, will it not break? Your advice would be much appreciated.
Sure a level is a nice touch. but first you must make it seal tight. A basement floor is not always level and as such sometime the toilet may be 1 degree off but I would rather have a tight seal.
Hi Jeff, Any chance you have a wall mount toilet install in the works? Seems like a space saver and I’m working with a small bathroom remodel and interested in your thoughts.
Did you use the bolts that came with the toilet or buy longer ones? I am adding a flange to fit my flooring but don't think the bolts are long enough that came with the toilet
Love your videos, very in depth and as a fellow canadian its nice to see. I have a question, my flange was installed quite high for whatever reason so when i went to replace the toilet it rocks back and forth. i shimmed it up but im wondering if there is a better solution to prop it up
Question for you, previous homeowners never bolted the flange to the floor, do you know what size bolt/drill bit I would need? It's a standard flange (the black plastic ones that spin) just need to bolt it into the floor.
Will using an inside abs fitting cause more plugging issues do to the smaller pipe diameter (2.5 inches instead of 3 inches that you would get if the flange connection was glued to the outside of the 3 inch pipe?
Keep your finger crossed that thing doesnt fly off while your gone. Also if you dont bevel and de burr the pipe before pushing it on sharkbite will void any warranty 100 % of the time.
You are handsome in that glasses, :-))) 1st, there is a toilet waiting for me as well in my basement. I wonder if toilets built with integrated tank be better than separated tank? reduce one joint and still light enough to handle. I actually did not know the exact interface between the drain and flange, thanks for the heads up knowledge. 2nd, reason I click this video at this time is your video, reason I like your video besides learning knowledge is the way you speaking ----positive. I learned from life, stay away from negative people and avoid speaking negative to let myself become negative. Louis
About to do this in my basement bathroom. Just wondering. Is there no need to screw the toilet flange down after you glue it in. Thanks for all the videos
Hello, You make it look easy. I did a lux vinyl tile bathroom install and when reinstalling the toilet it is leaking at the bottom when flushed. I am assuming its because the wax ring isn't aligned. Any tips to fix it? I rather not pay a plumber $350 to install it when the wax ring is $6

Thanks for helping me out with my holiday projects. You’ve answered so many of my questions!
Once again great video...... I feel very confident after watching your video when I am doing a project...
Love your videos. I thought you were supposed to tie that flange down with some screws after gluing it. Did I miss it?
Thank you sir. You inspire me to do more. :)
I would have liked to see how you clamp the water line behind the wall, but good vid!! Also the silicone used between the floor and base of toilet.

Very informative thank you sir. Feel like a pro now.
Fantastic! Thank you for your painstaking work more grease to your elbow and more wisdom always. What sealant can you recommend for sealing the toilet to the floor. Thank you.
You’re videos are great. I hope you don’t start doing shows on TV because I cut cable years ago and love watching RUclips! Thank you for everything

Dude ! this is the best videos. You should have your own videos channel .
Hey jeff excellent videos good you maybe have an add on video for your thoughts on choosing a wax ring or rubber seal?
Love your videos!
LOVE your videos! I'm a diy grandma and need to reinstall my one-piece toilet on new tile. It's SO heavy for me that I worry I won't have the control necessary to place it accurately. Any tips for those who lack strength? Thanks!

Another great video. Thanks
Thanks for the comment Joe!
Good video! Love it
YOU'RE THE BEST !!!

Now, whenever anyone in the complex flushes the toilet I hear it pretty loudly in my bathroom. Is this because of the lack of wax ring or is there any other way to avoid having to hear every other toilet in the complex flush in my bathroom?
What about using sealing around it? Is it possible to use a new type of Ring instead of wax ring?
great videos Jeff
You just gained a sub for this awesome video
Thanks for the info about ProFlo. We have them throughout the house from the builder, and I was wanting to pick one up for our new basement bathroom but didn't know where they were supplied here in Saskatoon. Quick Google for Wolseley and now I know!
These toilets are awesome. Thanks for the comment
Excellent video 👍
Great video again thanks. When the builder installed my toilets, he filled the underside with concrete, then put some on the ground, and sat it on it. Very different to your method there.
Steve J really? That toilet will never come off with out total destruction 😳
I Thank You Sir now I'm ready to put that toilet in but I have one question which do you think I should use the rub or wax seal
I was able to install - based on this video. Thank you !
Love your videos.
Thanks Larry, I hope you will keep the comments coming. I can use all the constructive criticism I can find.
I got some good tips here, thanks! Also notable: “rough-in” distance from wall. That could ruin your day
great videos! Was looking, but couldn't find one... you have one on installing a shower in a basement?
I just moved into a house in Mexico and a few contractors have told me I need to put down concrete/plaster instead of the wax seal.

good job well installing the Toilet
Thanks bro !!
Thank you! I can now install my own toilet 🚽...
Thank you for your awesome videos. Keep up the good work. (12:38 giving the finger!! :) )
Dont forget the finger at 11:01
🤣👍
simple fast clean job
When the toilet is new it's clean. Not as fun when reinstalling.
Hi Jeff. NIce video. I was always wondering if there is a gap between the cistern and and wall, will it matter?? I am just curious the fact if some one heavily leans agains the cistern, will it not break? Your advice would be much appreciated.
Good job 👏
it also helps to put a level on the toilet to make sure it is even.
Sure a level is a nice touch. but first you must make it seal tight. A basement floor is not always level and as such sometime the toilet may be 1 degree off but I would rather have a tight seal.
Very nice work sir ji

Use silicone shims or change the flange.
Great job I will try in my house
Cheers!
Question for you, previous homeowners never bolted the flange to the floor, do you know what size bolt/drill bit I would need? It's a standard flange (the black plastic ones that spin) just need to bolt it into the floor.
Thank you sir 👍👍🙏
For shark bite valve on copper juat push and install.
very informative video
Thanks for the comment.
Home RenoVision DYI, I have to replace a toilet. Will there be standing water in the line?
How do you clamp the hose behind the wall?? To keep it from moving after the install.
Will using an inside abs fitting cause more plugging issues do to the smaller pipe diameter (2.5 inches instead of 3 inches that you would get if the flange connection was glued to the outside of the 3 inch pipe?
Should i put closet flange on my concrete and tile around? or ontop of tile? you do both ways, which is best?
Good job
Just swapped the shutoff on the toilet in less than 2 minutes thanks to the sharkbite valve. Thank you.
Keep your finger crossed that thing doesnt fly off while your gone. Also if you dont bevel and de burr the pipe before pushing it on sharkbite will void any warranty 100 % of the time.

If you don't love every day....Change what you do for a living. Good luck with the toilet. Cheers
About to do this in my basement bathroom. Just wondering. Is there no need to screw the toilet flange down after you glue it in. Thanks for all the videos
Personally I don't see it but if you want to drill some tapcons into the concrete feel free.
Instead of a wax ring, I found a FERNCO toilet seal fitting that you stick on the bottom of the toilet and it fits in the hole. Any thoughts on these?
Sweet!
You are the best 💪👍
