I’m a 71 year old female who was resigned to calling in the plumber coz I could see nooo way of getting to the fixings. I watch your video,and VOILÀ i am now Ms Clever Clogs. Thank you sooo much wow❤😊

[@sb50cal9]

Nice work!

[@racheliza7604]

I’m not yet 71 but happy to join the Clever Clogs Club also! Really appreciate these videos, thank you

[@zennabella1676]

YOURE THE SAME AGE AS ME, IF YOU CAN DO IT, I SHOULD BE ABLE TO DO IT. I SHOULD UNSCREW THE TOILET SEAT FIRST THEN TRY TO REMOVE IT TO SEE EXACTLY HOW MY TOILET SEAT FITS ON MY TOILET THEN TRY TO FIX IT.

[@user-ld7uj9pv8e]

Same. 🎉

[@MegaMojo83]

Thank you so much! 40 year old lone mum of 2 and you’ve taught me a valuable lesson! So happy now😊

[@John.Harper]

[@vinonundkumar3903]

[@fattty_tuna]

Massive thank you Bill, I've had a loose toilet seat for months - never realised I could easily fix it till your video came up today :)

[@billshowto]

You’re welcome 👍

[@jeffpickles8441]

Fantastic many thanks.

[@IndigoSparkle1]

You my friend are a legend!!! Recent single mum buying her own house and this has been bugging me for nearly a year!! Fixed in seconds!! Thank you thank you 🙏🏼

[@kayred8572]

Thank you so much for this!! As a woman, I’m so proud of myself I was able to fix my toilet with a little help from you!

[@Yaapin_Nyauwi]

I just moved into an apartment a week ago. You’ve saved me having a long wait after asking the landlord. Thank you.

[@mr.reeves2764]

Thank you so much, huge help. It was my mother's toilet. She's 78. She was afraid she was going to fall off and break her hip. I was stumped. I didn't know how to fix that toilet. It was the cadet style, so the wings were hidden underneath. Until you show me that, those pieces were pistons. And you push them and that removes that seat to reveal pins then they were US Allen's that were up under it. Outstanding, really appreciated man. I was about to call a plumber and be out of about $500.

[@blessmymessy]

Thanks, Bill! May God bless you, buddy! 🎉

[@aishwaryakaranth9668]

From the bottom of my heart I will thank you man 😊. I never thought I can fix this loose toilet seats so easily 🙏👏👏👏

[@hazelhamilton6540]

Oh my gosh!! Thank you, thank you, thank you 😊!!!! I have racked my brain and searched my toilet over and couldn't figure it out! It was driving me crazy 🤪!! Not to mention how many times I've about fallen off of it because it was so loose😁 😅🙃!! Very helpful. Thanks again !!

[@angelinaz78]

I am so thankful for people like you who take the time to show us these things. They're really handy.

[@rpleal2469]

Bill you are amazing… As a single mum I learn so many simple fixable things which would cost a packet every time I’d have to call a handyman.. I deadset just fixed my toilet seat which has been driving me mad for months Thank you so much

[@billshowto]

You’re very welcome 👍

[@angelawilcox512]

Huge thank you for this simple easy to follow video. Moved into a house with hidden screws toilet seat and I had no idea how to stop it moving about!

[@Johadart]

Bill, I couldn’t get the answer from where I purchased my toilet system, but you’ve just showed me how to, so I’ll be passing it on to them also, great video mate. 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼

[@RoslynBaker]

Thanks very very much Bill - you are so generous.

[@Jon-gx2pu]

Thank you so so much!! The wife has been stressing me out to tighten these and I was gobsmacked trying to find the screws!! Haha thanks!!!

[@Augasma]

Had no idea it would be this easy, saved me both time and money!

[@danhaynes417]

Bill you bloody legend! I've had a new bathroom for three years and the toilet seat has kept coming loose. I've been on me back tightening those bastard little plastic claw strews every couple of weeks. It's ten in the morning here but my wife seriously just suggested we crack a bottle of bubbles to celebrate our newly secured toilet seat.

[@lduranceau8046]

Bill, thanks for the help! My American Standard toilet seat was very loose, and I felt intimidated about trying to fix it myself. I followed your instructions closely, and it turned out to be much easier than I thought. Now 1) the seat no longer slips out of position, and 2) it is much easier to clean around the round white cover. It's funny, I never once thought of pulling the seat cover vertically to remove it. You made me appreciate the DIY idea, plus you saved me a plumber's house call.

[@vinniramineni5992]

This is probably the fifth time I’ve had something happen at home, thought it’ll be a huge thing to fix, then found your channel and it’s a super quick fix. Thank you!!

[@billshowto]

You’re very welcome 👍

[@dingo7488]

You are da BOMB!!!! I was thinking of calling someone. Couldn’t find the fixings and coujd NOT believe you had the words “hidden fixings” in your title which was exactly my problem. I’m a sixty year old female who likes to try and have a go herself first but this had me flummoxed. But thanks to you video I felt capable again. Can’t thank you enough. Small thing but could cost a person had we not had you. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥰🥰🥰👵🏻👵🏻

[@Sleepysloth440]

Thanks bill, seats been loose for weeks and was driving me up the wall. Got it sorted after watching your video. Thought I was going to have to buy a new seat but that’s quick fix and it’s sorted.

[@AnilJohn61]

Thanks a zillion. Big help. Your video is short & straight to the point.

[@billshowto]

You’re welcome 👍

[@PundiRatna]

Hi Bill, No Messi, No Ronaldo. You are the GOAT

[@marcografvonpartagas]

Hahaha! I've been trying to figure out how to remove my top-fixed toilet seat for MONTHS! I'm sat here laugh now! Many thanks! :)

[@fatrpenguin]

I was just googling how to fix my toilet seat and this video was the first link. Made me smile when I realised it was you because I've been helped by a few of your videos now Bill. Makes it feel like I've got a friend showing me how to fix so many things around my place. Thank you!

[@billshowto]

Glad my videos are helping you 👍👍👍

[@johngreig2824]

Thank you for the video. After watching it, I was easily able to fix our loo. :)

[@galaxy.at.youtube]

Thanks! All my life I had seats with under the toilet tightening and when I stumbled upon a newer one, I was a bit lost, but you made a good howto which helped me to solve the issue.

[@judithconnor6717]

Holy Mother of Pearl, I just fixed the toilet seat that has been driving me mad for ages. Took me 30 seconds. I am feeling a combination of massive relief and embarrassment that I didn’t learn this sooner!

[@gumtree7177]

Thanks bill. Give me the old toilets 🚽 was all easy.

[@sandiepandieuk5066]

Wow, So simple when you know how. Thank you

[@TheRealMrCods]

I have just realised I have never seen a new toilet seat 🤣🤣 This was new to me so thanks Bill 👍

[@billshowto]

👍👍👍 it will come in handy

[@francisiven6277]

Thank you bro ,even Bunnings workers didn't know this information

[@EJAZenarosa]

Thank you for this video...my wife told me just now to fix our toilet seat.

[@tessymathew3491]

Thank you.. finally I know how to fix it!!

[@JustD135]

Thank you very much Bill! This video made me the happiest person on earth. I was asking my boyfriend to fix the toilet seat for ages, and he just wanted to find someone to do it. But because we live abroad it was taking him ages to find a service. I told him to find it on KZbin and that he can to it himself. Finally, today I found your video and showed him how easy it is. Now I can tell him that “I TOLD YOU SO” 😂😂 This video is 10/10

[@leslie2760]

I'm 70 year old woman, and been sliding sideways on my toilet seat for ages... watched this video and fixed my loo in five minutes. Thank you, sir, you are a STAR!

[@billshowto]

You’re welcome 👍

[@catherinemarsh5453]

Thank you very much. I clean houses and just about every house has this problem mainly modern houses with modern seats. So now I can fix them myself.

[@bikerprincess7]

So......I've been "suffering" with the stupid loose toilet seat, because it's a top fix with no bottom acces (which is how I've resolved this issue in the past). THANK YOU so much for posting this video. A few seconds later, voila! All done. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!!! Seriously, did I say thank you? Cuz - thank you.

[@mahinkazemi7957]

Thank you so much bro 😎 i am terribly useless when it comes to fixing or assembling anything😂With the help of your video i fixed my moving annoying toilet seat after months of waiting for the magic wand to appear without spending even one cent 😅🎉

[@leylamoone6284]

Hey Bill 😁 thanks a million! Lived with a loose toilet seat for 5 years since we moved into this place! My boys gave it a go and couldn't fix it! When you know the trick or have the code you can fix anything. So happy I found your video!! Cheers 💪💪💪❤

[@billshowto]

You’re very welcome 👍

[@Jesser1121]

Your an absolute legend Bill! I never knew about the wingnuts underneath!! Easy simple fix!!

[@tikiri4656]

OMG, you are the best literally ( no lies). Thank you from all sides of my heart for this generous help. God bless in billion folds 🎉

[@bryanjones3331]

Thanks so much for this. Wish I'd watched you last weekend before I spend three hours trying unsuccessfully to fix a seat I thought had been fitted incorrectly! Took me ten minutes today to get it right.

[@isabeli2667]

Thanks for this. Really helpful

[@jameswatson4874]

Thank you so much! I never would have known about the top fitting. You've saved me calling out the plumber - thanks!

[@helendj4520]

My toilet seat was loose for several weeks now till i’ve seen your video. Saved money to call handyman to do the work. Thanks a lot.

[@billshowto]

You’re welcome 👍

[@AreLL]

Thank you Bill. God bless you

[@carolineheward3266]

WOW! Bill you are amazing! I have a gorgeous glitter toilet seat with hidden fixings in my bathroom! My lovely neighbour, who has been a knight in shining armour to me, fitted my new toilet seats and advised me that if they ever came loose, that he would be happy to readjust them. As a single, almost 60 year old woman, I like to be as self sufficient as possible. Without having to keep asking other kind souls for help. I googled for help on this issue, and hey presto, your video came up in exactly the right place for taking off the toilet seat and adjusting the hidden screws!!! OMG - I found a selection of screwdrivers, as I had no idea which one would work and with incredible ease, removed the toilet seat and tightened the screws and now it doesn't move. I feel very happy and incredibly accomplished now I have fixed my wiggly seat! A very happy fan! 😍 I could hug you!! x

[@billshowto]

You’re welcome 👍

[@jamesvoss1531]

Super Public Service video! I've been stumped on this loose seat problem for 10 months, until only a few minutes ago. Your video avoided further embarrassment with guests coming tomorrow.

[@lcmay5480]

Thank you so much for this - couldn’t work out how to get to the fixings and was thinking I’d have to call in a professional. Watched this video and did it myself in 5 minutes!!

[@TK-ij4gm]

Bravo! You deserve big applauses. Finally my husband was able to fix our toilet seat.

[@jacquigibbons9178]

Bill, you're a star! The two secret catches to release the seat - this was the missing link ! If anyone else is here because you looked at other videos and still can't see how to release your seat to even lift it off, watch this two minutes in. Lifesaver!

[@aleni901]

Chur bro….ive impressed the Mrs with that burst of knowledge, thanks.

[@glenfisher189]

You are a champion. Seriously, I was about to knock the seat off with a hammer because I couldn’t find the hidden fixings. Thanks mate.

[@laurenheywood2818]

Who knew it was that easy to fix! Thank you for such a helpful video💪🏻
