"Get out of my way! if you knew what you were doing you wouldn't be calling me ! I think i split my side laughing so hard Steve i just have to say this.... You're my new Hero
Steve, New years day I thought of you. A good fiends daughter had no heat, the first guy came in and said she needs a new system, 2nd guy put a transformer in and fixed the heater. 2nd guy was a honest guy just like you, wish there was more people like you out there. Thank You
He wanted to watch you do it Steve, so next time instead of the pliers he could get his torch out. 😂😂😂 Imagine that guy getting a torch out and trying to get that off.
It was probably leaking from the sewage pipe, so they just went round it with the caulk, not forgetting where the screws are. Out of sight, out of mind mama.
Dude, I love your "New Yawk" accent. I moved from Long Island when I was 12 to California. No accent out here. Your videos are spot on, thanks from an old handyman now in Lake Havasu City, Az.
My flippin' upstair toilet valve had a small trickle and set off my flippin' septic alarm. Nice red light in the yard on Christmas Eve. I thought "What would Steve do?". I had the parts and changed out the fill valve. (Always keep a back-up parts) Checked the sewer clean out and no back up water to the house connection. O.K! Took 20 hours for the flippin' septic alarm to reset, as they do. Thanks Steve!
The pepto toilet might still have some life left in it...there has to be rebuilt kits or new OEM flush valves available. The owner will take a douche to his wallet to have both vintage fixtures replaced😂
Is this the same guy that needed some bolts tightened on his water heater. And was talking about his bleeding head and bloody rags? He did a number on that valve! 😊
Those toilets will, indeed, plug up if too much is flushed through at once. However, the low design of the tank keeps them from ever overflowing. When the bowl fills, the water level equalizes with the tank and the fill valve shuts off. They literally can’t overflow. They also originally came with special fill valves to pump water into the rim, because it was above the level of the flapper. Without this new fill valve, you’ll only get water swirling around as you flush, not a full rinse. Kind of the predecessor to the proprietary designs of today, and replacement fill valves for these are super expensive and hard to find these days. Not sure why they went out of style, to be honest.
Gotta love how the guy rigged a fluidmaster fill valve to work in this Rialto toilet. KOHLER sells a kit that restores the original fill valve which has an old-time float ball and rod. Why pay KOHLER $125 when an $8 fluidmaster will do the job. Haaaa
Yep the ‘80s. A raspberry purée Kohler Rialto. Very expensive to replace. Steve was wise to move the lid out of the bathroom and keep it safe from breaking.
His look identical to the ones I got from harbor freight that often tear quite quickly. My boss got these orange gloves which are textured on one side that seem extremely rugged but the name eludes me now.
That’s funny, the guy used the term “shoemaker”, the guy is saying the guy who did the job was a “helper”, not the real plumber. I don’t think Steve picked up on it. He sounds like a guy who likes cannolis and pasta. My Dad used the shoemaker term. That’s some funny shet right there. Steve, you charging by the hour for this job? Talk about helicopters. When you make your 10 best videos for 2023, this guy tops all helicopters, seems to me, especially on weekends. Why not rip that shet toilet out and put a real man’s toilet in there, one of those white Gerbers. Extra silicone floor seam and all. Heck, Molly would not put up with weekend work, is she in the plumbers Union? 💪😎👍🇺🇸. Happy New Year.
The only major issue has with that color. As far as weekends go, triple rate. Otherwise don’t answer the phone. I bet there are 24 hr types on call 365 find them on the internet. Just turn off the water, and use a bucket, fill the bucket and dump it fast into the bowl. Watch it all go down the same hole. Takes no more than 1/2 a 5 gallon Sheetrock bucket. Just dump it all real fast one shot. No flapper nor valve. Use the tub to fill bucket. Ask me, I graduated from engineering school. Was doing it for months when I couldn’t close the main valve in fear of it breaking right off. And the toilet and sink never had valves. That’s a real house I lived in, a cape cod build on Long Island NY, in 1949. Why the F do we need valves? When there is a main house valve in the basement? . And the ultimate bottom line, no modern day wifee to deal with. Otherwise broke for life, early death, or waiting around to die. 😳😲🧨
And I would say that's a good day that's actually normal cuz if it doesn't you know you'll eventually have a toilet that doesn't have enough water in it to flush things down it if it's just barely has a little drizzle I would that's not enough that's like a jack up your water bill that you should even care
Your hero should use one after every depends change. Ohhhh thats right, he doesn’t change his depends, won’t shower enough either, takes off the orange makeup, baaad. Body habits have regressed right back to infancy, just like his babbling speeches and irrational blaming of everyone but himself. What a fuggin mess.
"Get out of my way! if you knew what you were doing you wouldn't be calling me ! I think i split my side laughing so hard
Steve i just have to say this.... You're my new Hero
Steve tells 'em like a boss
It’s like a show where you can’t wait for the next episode, always entertaining, yet informative.
I love being from MA where you can call someone a dumb dumb and they don’t even get offended.
Or say queer 😂

Laughing so hard I can hardly breathe. "If you knew what you were doin, you wouldn't be calling me." Priceless!!!!!
This is hilarious. Flippen dum dum, that's extremely funny!
THE SIXTIES CALLED THEY WANT THAT BATHROOM BACK
I was thinking more like the 1940's.
diffently 1980s cocaine was done in that bathroom
😂
You can keep your boring white and blue bathrooms, I'll take this any day. Just needs a taller toilet
Imagine toilets were collectibles?
The pink toilet... she's a beauty mama!
I am thinking either him or the wife clog that often with their logs
The toilet is a 1980s-1997 Raspberry Purée Kohler Rialto. Pretty rare to find, and were extremely expensive.
Hated it the year my mom painted my room pink!
Customer Relations = "You Dum Dum"!! LOL
Gotta remember that for work tomorrow 😅
Steve is too funny! 😅😅
Try not to be so mean to the old man next time.
You got soft hands
I bet the guy that siliconed his toilet to the tile floor was nice to him. 😮
Isn't it called tough love, my friend?
Charge him double for being a helicopter.
Back the hell up guy ! Don't hover over my toolbox. If you knew what you were doing you wouldn't have called me, you dum dum !
Priceless ! 😂😂😂
Hahahaha
I was hoping the guy didn't actually turn the water off 🤣 Steve really would have lost it on him.
Steve, that was a tough one, worry about in the wall breakage. Good job on fixing that one !!
He wanted to watch you do it Steve, so next time instead of the pliers he could get his torch out. 😂😂😂 Imagine that guy getting a torch out and trying to get that off.
Those Kohler fill valves are insanely expensive
That toilet needs a fuzzy seat
I doubt that calk under the toilet is 40 years old.
That Caulk looks new to me. 40 year caulk would have some mold spots on it
It was probably leaking from the sewage pipe, so they just went round it with the caulk, not forgetting where the screws are. Out of sight, out of mind mama.
@@SyNdicateZ81 Not to mention the accumulated piss and shit Lol.
Awesome! Vid steve
Guy took pliers to a soldered supply. LoL. HOLY SHIT MAMMA!! Can't make this shit up.
A flapper was giving me a headache. 3 times I tried. I knew this video would help... THE HANDLE!!! Never thought to check that. Thank You!
🤣😂Never a dull moment!!
Miss Molly!!!
You are correct, if that twisted pipe would have split open water gushes quickly, would have been a bad flood.
Dude, I love your "New Yawk" accent. I moved from Long Island when I was 12 to California. No accent out here. Your videos are spot on, thanks from an old handyman now in Lake Havasu City, Az.
Wow! miss molly was really excited there! 😊
Great job Steve.
Steve go get em
Happy New year to everyone and Steve
Steve said after one of them working man lunches, he'll plug that sucka up. 😂
This guy would make the Three Stooges look like pikers in any of their plumbing episodes.
Steve, you are salt of the earth 😂, the world needs more of you!
That’s a joke.
You grounded that helicopter
This guy knew to call Steve...hooked on Steve for rest of his life! :)
You don't see those colors anymore Steve, great video and fix! Remain safe and keep the videos coming 👍 👌 ☝️ 🫵
He is in Steve’s hula hoop
The Resident Is A Hovercraft😁
Trying to save a buck, guys got millions,
That's how you stay rich

steve is great with coustomer relations he is my inner ego just that i haven't lost my patients
If you think that then you must be as rude as he is.
“I’ll block this sucker up” 😂
The pepto toilet might still have some life left in it...there has to be rebuilt kits or new OEM flush valves available. The owner will take a douche to his wallet to have both vintage fixtures replaced😂
You should get double time pay for that mess!!!!
Is this the same guy that needed some bolts tightened on his water heater. And was talking about his bleeding head and bloody rags? He did a number on that valve! 😊
He sure gave it the ol' "hiya doin?"
customer gave it ole how you doing to valve.
That old lead solder is hard to remove
No, not really, it has a lower melting point than lead free solder. It does shoot small sparks when it turns to liquid, though.
What did He put on that Cut Off, a great Big Pipe Wremch on it?
If brute force isn't working, you're just not using enough!
Dumb I would tell him to not to disturb u when u trying to fix it 😊
U do amazing work steve l
Awesome videos
Old ethnic dads. Reminds me of my dad 😂

Hello Steve!
hello
50/50👍🏻
Howdy Steve and Molly
Steven,this guy is a Hoover Craft 😂😂😂
Portuguese English talk: maybe a shoe maker was first time. That is why, I call you. 😂
Holes in the tank??? I would find some way to plug those.
Dracula's house
That bathroom is wild! What decade is this from, 1980's?
I'd guess late 60s
Yep the ‘80s. A raspberry purée Kohler Rialto. Very expensive to replace. Steve was wise to move the lid out of the bathroom and keep it safe from breaking.
Water lines should be metal , plastic ones cracks in time, floods room .
Crawling around toilets is always gross!..no expensive shark bite stuff in the 60’s
Funny again Steve 😂
hahahaha now that is a first by Joe Homeowner. Trying to twist off a soldered valve.
I recommend a new toilet
Also on a side note. People, please clean the outside of the toilet, that dusty dirty mess makes me want to gag. All you need is a bleach wipe.
That was a tough spot
He's probably trying to shut off the water but did not know how to do it you might want to show him how to do that sweet as twist the pipe again
Steve what kind of rubber gloves do you use I cant find any that dont tear after 5 minutes?
His look identical to the ones I got from harbor freight that often tear quite quickly. My boss got these orange gloves which are textured on one side that seem extremely rugged but the name eludes me now.
Stevie Lav school of customer service degree strikes again 😂
Try this with a pro press!!
Don't hold anything back, Steve. LOL. Double the labor if the customer works on it first!
👍
This guy is a twin rotor helicopter type😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Come on guy. Dumb dumb. 😂😂😂😂
Hello Steve
hello
I'd get rid of that relic
He coulda paid you in chorizo.
Where’s the working man’s lunches?
With the small size of that bowl the chorizos clog it up
Steve his dad was Charles Atlas!! He told him to make sure that it doesn’t leak 😜!!!!!

50/50 is good stuff…..can’t find it anymore.
Triple time pay 😮
Yes that happens to me quite often I call that the helicopter hovering over you love your videos great job Steve.❤
In case you're not aware, there is a more diplomatic way to speak to a high paying customer.

Stop yelling at him he is old
Seems a little queer here , Steve's the greatest
Steve is freakin' hilarious. A true old school plumber.
Steven & Mrs Molly , Happy New Year , God bless y'all. It's a shit show from hell 😂
Unbelievable
That’s a mess of a job 😂
Hey Steve and Miss Molly! Workin’ again ya’ll. 👍👍
Dont you just love working for helicopters lol!
Nothing wrong with observing a plumber doing work. After all, a lot of them do rip off the customer price wise.
And I would say that's a good day that's actually normal cuz if it doesn't you know you'll eventually have a toilet that doesn't have enough water in it to flush things down it if it's just barely has a little drizzle I would that's not enough that's like a jack up your water bill that you should even care
If that’s the case mine is bigger than yours since no privacy lol
Hi 🫶🏻🇬🇧🫶🏻
That second toilet is called Biden, I mean, bidet.
Your hero should use one after every depends change.
Ohhhh thats right, he doesn’t change his depends, won’t shower enough either, takes off the orange makeup, baaad.
Body habits have regressed right back to infancy, just like his babbling speeches and irrational blaming of everyone but himself.
What a fuggin mess.
LET’S GO BRANDON !!!!
😆
Good thing the pipe didnt break inside the wall.
That’s what my next door neighbor did. LOL!
Get out of my way!
It's a Stanley Steamer MaMa.
He called him a dum dum..
