There will come a time where you will have to go into your bathroom and learn how to fit your toilet if it needs repair or replacement. One thing to think about before starting any work is to make sure you have another toilet or bathroom you can use because while you are taking action and working in this water closet. Most people will forget that they are actually working in the bathroom that they use often. A good knowledge of hand tools and some common plumbing fittings are required to fit the toilet properly and professionally.

The first thing you will want to do is to remove the old water closet out of the way so that you can build your new toilet and tank. After you have removed the old water closet from the bathroom you should start to assemble your toilet Syphon and the tank as well.  The cistern will have two holes in the front so you can choose what side of the tank you want the flush lever to be on. Always make sure to check that the pan and the cistern are completely level and if they are not you will want to pack them out so that they become level.

Make sure to use a push fit flexible connector to join the new pan that you have to the soil pipe and you will also be glad to know that the push fit flexible connectors  come in off set , straight , angled and even custom bent to fit different types of installations.

Off course depending on the brand of the toilet will depend on what sizes of fittings and pipe you will need, so be sure to ask the employee in the plumbing house to give you all the supplies that you will need to do the job right the first time. You can also look in the manual that comes with the water closet as well to find out exactly what the toilet needs to be fitted.

Now that you know how to fit a toilet you can take your toilet off anytime and bring it outside to clean it really good. In fact in many towns and in many states people take their toilets off all the time and some even use them as planters for flowers in the summer.

Of course if you don’t think you will be able to fit a toilet yourself because of skill reasons or even physical limitations you could always hire a plumbing tradesman to come and fit the toilet for you.
