Where to turn off the water supply?

[@Willyg28]

Hey mate, I live in Norway and was quoted nearly £200 for someone to come and install a toilet I had bought. Was a little apprehensive of giving it a go with the potential consequences if it went wrong but with your help I decided I would give it a go myself (with zero experience) and can happily say i'm now the proud owner of a fully functioning toilet! Thank you!

[@yyxx4094]

@121bham £1600 for a combi to combi

[@kryptoniteee]

Porche Tuning he saved himself £200 and his toilet works. What’s your problem?

[@petej222]

$600 in Australia just for labour to install a toilet

[@wojciechmajchrzak2250]

@@petej222 wtf? 3x the price of the toilet! Insanity

[@Scott-eo7lj]

200 pounds is cheap. Lol But glad you diy'd it.

[@nellsypie]

You uploaded the vid 10 years ago and I came across it today when I was worrying about paying out for a plumber. Thank you so so much man!

[@plumberparts]

No worries!

[@ushagoteti6147]

R u still doing the job? If yes please let me know I can take your services for changes in bathroom of my small flat.

[@charliefisher672]

Thanks for the tutorial. Im 15 years old and have now fitted a toilet down stares and the sewage pipes a swell.

[@goodplacereviewer2495]

I'm 2 years old and I've been flushed down the toilet 😪

[@ryanhiggs3370]

Mate did you go forward with a career in plumbing

[@tactme4390]

Nice to see a video on someone getting straight to the point with easy step by step guide. Thank you

[@ranjitpatel496]

I'm still a plumber & heating engineer for many years now but still,its interesting to see how others work,thank you for posting your videos..

[@martinjay8910]

Brilliant video! I needed to remove my toilet to get to a toilet freshener which my grandson had managed to wedge in the soil-pipe (don’t know how he managed to flush it round the bend)! With no previous experience, I managed the job thanks to your excellent instruction and saved myself a tidy sum in plumbers fees. I simply wouldn’t have had the confidence to try it without your encouraging and detailed video.

[@Zel0978]

I'm not even a plumber and I love your vids - hilarious, informative and supreme skills. Good job and keep it up. Hold tight!

[@tomar3]

Installing downstairs loo today. This video was everything I needed. In particular the pan floor fixings and the screws into the wall. Thank you so much. HOLDING TIGHT

[@stevebell5455]

Another great video mate. Living in a broken house so these videos are very useful to myself as I know nothing about plumbing. Nice one.

[@charliedogproductions7484]

This guy is great! Straight to the point, clear and precise with his instruction. Very helpful guy.

[@plumberparts]

Cheers charlie! Sub here please>> kzbin.info

[@tonic1987ok]

Superb. Saved me a lot of money watching this video. Had to use a couple of cans of air freshener though, couldn’t stop retching.

[@plumberparts]

No worries MATTY! Glad I could help, still uploading today so sub, plus you can follow my Vlog @timeswithjames FANKS!

[@jamescurtis5787]

You are BRILIANT! You put to shame every DIY muppet on the TV. Thank you so much for a video that's not only instructive but enjoyable to watch.

[@thomasdalzell4012]

Just followed your video and installed a new downstairs loo. Absolutely invaluable information.

[@minimilsy1]

I too have used this video to help me install a new toilet after months of putting up with a forever degrading toilet. Another job I can now do.

[@kelfbk6]

I am about to embark on taking out my old bathroom and installing a new one, thank you for your videos, no doubt I will re-visit when I get stuck. It took me hours to fit my kitchen tap last time, as it is never as easy as you make it look :)

[@panashemutero8220]

just a tap kkkkkkk how did it take you so long

[@shopztauk4320]

Excellent video. Easy and simple to follow for anyone doing this first time.

[@danieldahdah7431]

Thank you very entertaining and informative. NO time wasting. Great personality! I can't remove my cistern from bowl as I have no access to the nuts under the cistern. I can only see screws inside the cistern. I'm hoping that if I keep undoing the screws in the cistern the cistern will eventually lift off. I've been trying for quite a while. It is coming loose from the bowl Thanks for your help and fun with presentation.!

[@KeyKrusher]

Thanks! This was very useful. I replaced my loo today and was not sure which order to do the bits in so this came in handy. I like the lighthearted and humour - especially about needing therapy after wiffing the waste pipe!!

[@toddgilbey3979]

“This is a close-coupled system and it’s going to me mental...” 😂😂

[@danielbell5436]

I'm plumbing student myself this helps out a lot on what goes on with toilets and how their fitted 👍🏻

[@zoe9632]

Mate...you expained the steps so clearly, I understood it all 👍

[@fanciatune]

Dear James Thanks a lot. This helped me remove a toilet yesterday, no problems at all. I am sure it will hep me put the new one in.

[@Shodan_AI]

Installed a new toilet today with the help of this video. Thank you very much. Hold tight! 😂

[@birminghamplumber9067]

Very useful bit of information, the use of a wet and dry vacuum can really cut back on time sent draining down when fitting a new toilet, thanks

[@plumberparts]

At 6.30 in this vid actually drove me crazy 😂 fat fingers small screws!! Thanks for this, was brilliant to be able to do this myself! ❤️

[@JorgePetraglia2009]

Two plumbers I had the privilege to work for,when I was young and had all my hair ,gave me two very important pieces of advice : "plumbers make money simply because people are afraid of their own shit". The second one,no less important, was: "don't make faces,it's only shit". I never liked somebody else's crap but,over the years I've managed to put a straight face in front of clients just to impress them and get paid well. You are so good amigo,your videos are not only funny,but very professional. Greetings from Toronto.

[@pedropicapiedra8457]

Jola! Great video, 11 years on!

[@diymanbelfast2897]

What’supp! Brilliant advice and I could not do the jobs around my house if it’s wasn’t for your tips.

[@SteS]

Disappointed you didn't say *Hold shite* at the end. Good video James. Top tier toilet replacement.

[@pauloroarty1799]

That was Brilliant and I just might have a go myself.Thank you

[@icespeckledhens]

Excellent instructional video. I would not be too happy soldering those pipes so near to the flexible waste. Knowing my luck I would end up with a major problem but in your hands no problem.

[@plumberparts]

Ha! No worries!

[@norm4260]

The elbow would have been solder before fitting clearly.

[@reaper060670]

Brilliant video mate. I'm gonna be changing out the small toilet downstairs.. Watched another video where u chsnged out the tiny sink for a nee bigger one.. Top stuff my friend.. Thsnks for the information

Thanks for sharing this video. It gives me greater confidence in undertaking a toilet renewal which I am about to embark on.

Top banana James - very instructional and beautiful editing..... keep up the good work dude

[@plumberparts]

TorridTV Cheers dude!

[@mrericpritchard]

Great video, you are a very good presenter and plumber!

[@Bazlightyear007]

Great video. I would mention when I did it, the new ceramic toilet was wobbly on the newly tiled floor. I had to use shims under one side to stop it rocking. Fingers crossed its not going to give me issues later!

[@plumberparts]

Bazlightyear007 You'll be fine!

[@localplumbersnearme1472]

this is a great step by step guide on how to install a toilet. your right that week went fast - thats some nice video editing :)

[@davidharrison7853]

Thanks. I'm just onstalling a bog for my mother, wasn't sure if I needed to put sealant arounf the flexi waste pipe, now I know. Why do you use the crap isolation valve on? I use the ones with the turn handle, no need to find a flat ended screw driver which is much quicker in an emergency.

[@FinnMacCuhl]

Magic, short and sweet and full of useful info. Cheers

[@wild1_gamer_bear528]

Great cheers for this vid iv brought a new toilwt i was hoping to just replace the basin as I dnt feel that comfy given my mentel health and physical illnesses but I have to as the feed system from cistern to the basin mine is just seems to be 32mm tube but this new 1 sits on like the 1 your installing. Its this that I'm apprehensive about as iys solid pipe work nor flexi hose so I need a flexi hose there also dose not seem to be any need for welding the only issue have is actually putting the internal cistern parts together 😔 iv gor tools 🔧 drill etc caulk gun, sealant etc ankther day useing 25lt ox bucket 🙃 as the porcelain has cracked all along the back were the water feeds into toilet so if flush the cistern water just pools all over floor im nor paying HA or a private imber to fit it this vid has given me confidence to attack the task just need flexi hose to get here cheers agin great vid with banter ✌💚

[@barnbersonol]

Gr8 video as per but some other plumbers advise against using power tools on screws that fasten thru porcelain as you may overdo it and crack the porcelain

[@knight1605]

Big up to the PP. Nice vid. Couldn't help but notice the interesting way the radiator was piped up! Keep the vids coming m8.

[@kasthom3]

Thanks for the video ,I have done this job myself many years ago,but wanted a refresher before trying again.I noticed you used silicone on the soil pipe but won't that make it a nightmare for someone to remove in the future?

[@MrSTUPIDBRICK]

as a plumber myself nice neat job! The pan brackets have been a pain in the arse for me in the past. So that little trick you showed has helped me fit newer type WC's with that type of bracket a doddle! cheers keep up the good work!

[@_Ragnarocket]

You've made this look doable haha wish me luck thank you!

[@Mike-q8r]

Great video mucker that has helped me a lot thank you 👍👍👍👍

[@diymanbelfast2897]

Hi ya used your videos to do my own shower room, I’ve no plumbing experience and I’m very happy with my job, sweeet! Can’t attach a picture or I would.

[@jacquelinebooth4603]

I hope to use your video to replace our new toilet. Thank you

[@dvbartley]

Superb video! Definitely got the confidence to try this myself now!

[@plumberparts]

+David Bartley Cheers dude!

[@78fisguard]

Good video, I’m due to have a go at fitting a replacement loo in my en-suite, which wasn’t my initial plan. The cistern was still leaking a small amount of water into the pan after flushing the loo. When I’d identified the washer was deteriorating from age and limescale I thought it would be a £2 washer replacement. But I thought I’d replace the internal cistern, but alas minor leaks over the years had corroded the securing plate to the doughnut washer. £150 later I’ve ended up buying an ideal standard Della close coupled toilet. I’ll provide an update on “how easy” it was to fit in due course.

[@DeeAliii]

How did it go??

[@tomfielder8973]

Great work. The flexi pipe and waste make light work of connections that would otherwise be a pain. Also, NO OVERFLOW connection which is also a precise through-the-wall connection?

[@MRjimdotcom1]

In the USA, plumbing a toilet is different so this is useless to me. BUT. I can't leave without complimenting the wit of the plumber -- especially the planning and execution that went into the two scenes, "To you, it will seem -- like a second." Brilliant! LoL. thanks.

[@rienjen]

Agreed. The tutorial doesn't help much due to all those little differences (the waste pipe in the wall vs. in the floor with a wax seal), but you gotta love that accent of his. :)

[@rztrzt]

You do get horizontal waste pipes going through the wall in the US but it's not as common. Much simpler and easier to go horizontal through the wall.

[@Rainagain1975]

Brilliant, easy to follow steps (and added personality)!!!!

[@plumberparts]

Ha! Thanks!

[@Lookandlearnandlaugh]

You are not only helpful but bloody funny too.....love it!

[@plumberparts]

Thanks!

[@bostan8761]

Thank pal. That was a straight forward informative video.

[@amazing451]

Thanks for the video but why did you use silicone on the flexi connector to the toilet?

[@stephencrumlish]

This was the most useful and easy to follow video I have ever seen on KZbin. Thanks very much

[@work4fit187]

Great video for me planning to do bathroom this will be lot of help 💯

Would be good if you could do a video of replacing a UK toilet that's been cemented to a concrete floor and cemented into a rigid clay / iron waste.

[@dianaspencer8638]

Thank you so much for showing me how to do this as I'm no plumber. I'm just a lady trying to short the jobs out in the house as my husband is a lazy get. my toilet system is like this one so what other parts do I need again.

[@bobby5634]

I hope you called a plumber🤣👍

[@loganswartzentruber2744]

Performs well. Very pleased

[@motherpops]

Made loads of sense thank you, my hubby has told me I've got to replace the outside WC . watch this space lol. At the moment its a high level WC so I'm a bit concerned , I'll be using snap fittings . question... Are all toilet water pipes on the left? The fittings outside are and I want to get all I need at the shop in one go, also is there a standard pipe diameter with modern wc's .

[@annonymous3948]

Plumberparts is deh article bomboclaat badboy round town, big-up unoself rude yute!

[@PingCrosby1]

Be careful you don't accidentally connect the toilet to the hot water, I did and had hot flushes for a week lol, class stuff matey.

[@D_cookfairy]

Thanks for the video so helpful, My son placed a toy into the WC and i bought a High Pressure Drain Unblocker with Air Pump. But still no solution. Pls what could the reason? And would we need to disconnect the wc cause the style her its narrow.
