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.
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!
I just started a house reno, and before I start any project I search your channel for the right way to do it.. Great stuff every time!
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!
I never get worked up by jealous trades. We will continue to help. Cheers!
@@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.
You breath like every dad has ever breathed.
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 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 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
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 $$$$.
Thanks Jeff.
Appreciate your sense of humour and professionalism keep up the great work.
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.
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!
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.
I am yet to find a video of yours I haven’t enjoyed. So heck yeah I’m enjoying!
I am in Florida and I love your video. I have done lots of project using your video as guide .
You are doing a great job ,!
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!
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!
Great video as usual, but i have two comments:
1- the paper label on the flange should have been removed as it was located right at the glued joint
2- the metal washer should have been on top of the plastic one and not the other way around
You’re videos are great. I hope you don’t start doing shows on TV because I cut cable years ago and love watching TH-cam! Thank you for everything
I'm a huge fan of your videos. I learned a lot from your instruction--drywall repair, simple plumbing, etc.
Thank you for the installation video. Do you have any other video for one piece toilets?
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.
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.
Can I ask a dumb question for an amateur diy? The toilet is only secured to the pipe, but what secures the pipe to the floor? It's not just floating is it?
Once again great video...... I feel very confident after watching your video when I am doing a project...
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 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!
Oh thank you. I’m 62 female and I think I can do this! Now how about a tutorial on an overlay for stairs? Do I have to cut off the nose of the stair to do a good job? You are an excellent teacher!
Hi Pamela, we are going to do a stir covering video later this summer that covers all of the new stair options available. cheers!
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.
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.
I love your videos. I always try and find yours for the diy stuff I need to get done. Thankyou
I feel like a professional just by watching your video 😂
I got some good tips here, thanks! Also notable: “rough-in” distance from wall. That could ruin your day
Tim Hortons needs to pay you. That's the perfect place for their coffee :)
LOL Cheers!
didnt use inside cutter wheel, flange is too far above floor, toilet might rest on pipe instead of floor (may be allowed but not best practice) also squeezes out too much wax. Didn't remove label from flange - glue will not work properly.
Awesome except for that sticker on the flange but prolly not a big deal since it won't be holding liquid
Thanks Jeff. Please remove the music when You talk if its possible. You do à great job!👍👍👍👍
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!
Dude ! this is the best videos. You should have your own videos channel .
We love your work, you are our go to go when things get tricky and people are hard to reach!!!
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?
why did you not need to bolt the toilet flange to the floor?
I was wondering the same thing.
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.
The last step about adjusting the water level in your toilet is important. If you don't do it properly, and your water level is too high, your water will be constantly running trying to fill up that toilet tank. This will waste tons of water. Speaking from personal experience and had to pay $100's on the water bill, as well as waste water!
Love your work dude,your the best
I'm surprised you didn't remove the sticker off the flange before gluing it. Other then that, good job.
i seen that also and the shark bite pushed on dirty pex line,other than that,i thought ring should be screwed to help toilet from rocking,oh well.
Hey jeff excellent videos good you maybe have an add on video for your thoughts on choosing a wax ring or rubber seal?
I thank you people for your videos
What about using sealing around it? Is it possible to use a new type of Ring instead of wax ring?
All good tips except using a grinder with cut off wheel for the long bolts. The sparks are hot and damaged the porcelain surface. Luckily it's not really very noticeable due to the position of our toilet. Maybe an oscillating tool with appropriate blade would be cleaner.
Sir, I am studying of plumbering from India and I am watching your every video .
All the best to your studies.
Isn’t copper better due to its antibacterial properties?
Thanx the video was clear and direct to the point
Installing a toilet today! Thank you for this 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 😳
Thank you for your awesome videos. Keep up the good work. (12:38 giving the finger!! :) )
Dont forget the finger at 11:01
🤣👍
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
Very good explanation. Thank u
good job well installing the Toilet
Mate, you should have put the washer on top of the plastik washer to prevent the metal from cracking the toilet. Just a friendly tip. Cheers
Excellent video 👍
I love your channel.
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
Love your videos.
Thanks Larry, I hope you will keep the comments coming. I can use all the constructive criticism I can find.
Very helpful
Many many thanks
That toilet makes me nervous! No bolts into the floor? it's going to be flexing back and forth on that pipe for years.
It's a great video but I prefer to put the washer and dryer and washer on top of it I always put double washer and also I'll put a nut before the toilet to secure to the flange cuz I find it sometimes especially if there is big people and when they move they Twisted toilet now about that flange you put I don't like it a lot because it's actually reviews the size from 4 inch or 3 inch two little smaller I like all the ways to put my flunch outside the pipe not in the inside diameter tell me when you think Buddy
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
If you don't love every day....Change what you do for a living. Good luck with the toilet. Cheers
When installing the washers and flange bolt nut, does the plastic washer go on first, or the metal washer. You put the metal washer on first. Other videos show the plastic washer first, then the metal washer, then the nut, then the plastic cap.
great videos! Was looking, but couldn't find one... you have one on installing a shower in a basement?
I think you should have screwed in the flang
I was able to install - based on this video. Thank you !
Love your videos!
Should I put silicon around the base of the toilet?
It looks like there is a pretty big gap between the toilet and the floor.
Good job 👏
How do you clamp the hose behind the wall?? To keep it from moving after the install.
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.
For shark bite valve on copper juat push and install.
Do you have one with a lead sleeve ?? Would be pretty interesting !
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
Really good how to, thank you so much
Thanks for helping me out with my holiday projects. You’ve answered so many of my questions!
The music works really good imo.
Andrei Fasola dude so true
Thanks for videos which help us make easy.
Very glad to help. That is why Max and I started doing this.
great videos Jeff
What would be best/ easier ? Copper compression fittings? Or PEX?
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
Great video! You do an awesome job of explaining everything.
Thank you William, we try!
Have you done a ‘how to remove a toilet video?’ I’m thinking about retiling my bathroom floor so need to take the toilet and pedestal sink away so I can tile and then reinstall them
Hey Jeff,
first off, I love your channel. I have learned so much from watching your stuff.
I purchased some luxury vinyl flooring to install in my bathroom. The original floor is cheap and thin laminate (4mm) and the plank flooring I bought is thicker (7mm). Will there be an issues with installing the toilet? Should I be concerned about a gap between the wax seal and the flange?
You'll need a flange extension
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
Should i put closet flange on my concrete and tile around? or ontop of tile? you do both ways, which is best?
I noticed Jeff did not screw the closet flange into the tile and sub floor after he cemented it into place. Is it not necessary to anchor the closet flange into the sub floor?
After gluing the flange to the pipe do you not screw the flange to the floor? I thought I saw 4 screw holes but didn't notice screwing it to the floor. Seems it would make the toilet more stable.
Correct
check the water while flipping the bird . Luv it @12:38
Thank you, super helpful 🙂
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?
Is it not necessary to seal the bottom of the toilet? I mean between the floor and the base of the bowl?
You just gained a sub for this awesome video
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.
