[@stuloveday8032]

Clear instructions Bill, thank you. Unlike so many other videos that just spend time waffling. Excellent tutorial.

[@codeisbroken]

Struggled for ages to find out how to remove this as it's different to others in our house. You legend, it was soo easy!

[@kenniejp23]

Brilliant thanks. 20 years ago my dad would have to call out a plumber to sort a simple job like this. Now thanks to KZbin we can do these simple fixes by ourselves 👍🏻

[@billshowto]

👍👍👍

[@Carlito.undercover]

20 years ago your dad could do everything himself and things weren't so complicated or us so useless.

[@jacc88888]

Great instructional video, short, clear to understand with no waffle, no pointless music and good closeups so we can see what is going on. Btw i tried it and it worked. Bravo and Thank you!

Very good. No swearing required. Well done. It worked. Thanks.

I knew someone on KZbin would explain how these come apart. Thank you for being that guy!

[@robgourdie]

Brilliant video. Removed lid, fixed lazy valve, replaced lid, in less time than it took to watch the video. No mucking around!

[@mitchayabitago5825]

Huge thanks!! I was searching for the right way to remove this kind of lid. And it's been a month since have had this problem 😂 big help!!

[@anngor6375]

Dude you've saved my life! I didn't know how to turn and fix a pressed flush on the toilet. Love you and thank you!

[@saquibkhan]

Absolute legend mate. I had 3 ppl come to my place and quoted me from $700 to $3500 to fix the issue i had with the buttons. I was able to do it myself after watching your video and it only costed me $20. Keep up the good work :)

[@local_authority]

[@canvacolouralchemist]

Brilliant!!! I wanted to put a toilet sanitiser in the cistern but couldn't lift it to open. I thought I wasted my money but now I know what to do. Thank you, much appreciated, 😊 ☀️

Thank you for your video. The buttons had stopped working on my toilet cistern and I managed to fix them with the help of your video. Many thanks!!!

[@will_hargreaves]

Very helpful. Been puzzled by this issue for months!

[@ChrisD11284]

Just bought my first house today and the toilet was overflowing and the overflow was going into the yard. Now the yard is constantly damp. Now, I’ve adjusted a cistern before but I came to this one and it was sealed! My system is a little different to the one you show but I was able to get the job done and now the yard can dry out. Thanks mate!

[@billshowto]

Hi Chris, what country do you live in? Only asking as toilets don’t overflow into the back yard unless the sewer line is blocked?

[@lokuowegordon7654]

Thank you mate 👍! This has helped fix my daughter's toilet...
