I love that you teach us like we don't know anything but don't talk to us like we are idiots. Thank you for making this accessible. Can't wait to try it.
-
I did an entire house remodel myself... ripping down to the studs by watching every video this man has. Hes basically Leonardo di Vinci
-
As a master plumber and someone who has been doing it for 20+ years this is an excellent video with very good information. The only thing I'd add is don't ever use anything made of metal to repair or raise the flange height. Those metal flange repair kits always rust and fail, don't use them. Use plastic or rubber like all the different options shown in this video.

Our house was built in 1945, and over the past two years we've been slowly renovating. I'm about to finish the last thing...the floor in the bathroom. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. You didn't know it, but you've been helping an Okie renovate his house over the past two years. Much appreciated.
-
Jeff, you provide a valuable service for many people, please don't blow out your back
-
This is the only renovation channel I watch, not because I need help learning anything because I'm a plumber myself but because I like seeing things done right, anyone who can't afford my services i introduce them to this channel and often I offer my help free of charge but I encourage everyone I encounter that dont have that much money to subscribe and watch these videos I tell them don't watch other videos only this channel if you want to do things the right way
-
I LOVE the father-son moment "What do you mean it's grouted to the floor?" Meanwhile Dad is explaining it while son is cracking up inside. Love it!
-
Love this guy. He points out all the pot holes in processing when it comes to home improvements etc. This is what I call mastery.....hours and hours oh shit and wtf lead to his wealth of knowledge and we are literally getting all that gold at such a low cost. Only thing left is the muscle memory lol
-
checked out 10 videos on replacing a toilet, including some in German, this is by far the best one! instead of just showing the basics you even show things which feel like secrets, like the flushing with a bucket, using the garbage bag etc. It is going to be my first time replacing a toilet, this video helped me gain more confidence than any other
-
Ive watched countless hours of your videos and i couldnt thank you enough, man. You've basically sustained my entire property maintenance career for years on end. Thank you.
-
Long time listener, first time caller. Learn A LOT from you. I wish this video was around before I replaced my last toilet! You guys have the most helpful content and really explain the good, the bad, and the potentially catastrophic. Took notes and will watch again before I tackle my next bathroom reno, for sure!
-
This is exactly what I needed to see for my in-progress bathroom renovation, exactly when I needed to see it.
-
I will not unsubscribe from this channel. Haven't for years, and I still find value in almost every video.
-
Great video, one of the most informative I’ve seen. Most DYI videos show that one situation and make it look easy but you always show different scenarios and explanations, that’s what I like most about your videos, even though I think I know it you always show me something more! Love your channel.
-
Originally I thought it was going to be too long winded. I wanted something short and sweet, BUT all your little tips were great and well worth watching all the way through! Excellent!
-
Thanks for this perfectly timed video! I just pulled a leaky toilet and had to demo my bathroom due to water damage. I was originally looking at your channel for plumbing tips and I'm so glad you posted this one before I put a new toilet back in the wrong way!
-
you, sir, are such a joy to watch. you’re like our modern day bob ross of diy’ing. BR always said there are no mistakes in painting and you give diy’ers confidence to take on home projects. thank you, sir ✊
-
Little tip if you roll down the edges of the garbage bag, you can place the toilet on top of the rolled down bag then you can roll it up around it without needing a helper. Love your channel.
-
This guy can explain things so well. I now know and understand the mistakes the previous homeowners made installing toilets in the house. Thank you
-
You are my hero! Every time I think of a project, you provide options that even if I don’t do the job myself, at least I know what the job entails so if I hire someone, I can ask the right questions. You’re the best!
