Toilet Leaking? Here’s How to Diagnose and Fix the Problem | DIY with Kevin

If your toilet is leaking from the tank or water is appearing around the base, this step-by-step #diy guide shows how to diagnose and fix the problem properly. In this video, we repair a #toiletleak caused by a failing tank-to-bowl gasket and an outdated water supply line. You’ll learn how to shut off the water, drain the toilet tank, remove residual water safely, and inspect the fill valve and gaskets for signs of wear. We show how a deteriorated rubber gasket can cause leaks at the bottom of the tank and why black residue often indicates gasket breakdown. This video covers how to replace a toilet tank gasket, install a new fill valve, swap a rigid supply line for a flexible toilet supply line, and replace the toilet flapper while the tank is already open. You’ll also see how to properly tighten plastic fittings, use plumber’s tape on compression fittings, and avoid over-tightening that can cause future leaks. We finish by slowly restoring water pressure, checking for leaks using the paper towel method, adjusting the float and fill level, and optimizing the water level for a strong flush while reducing water usage. This toilet repair tutorial is ideal for homeowners dealing with: • Toilet leaking from tank to bowl • Water on the bathroom floor near the toilet • Worn or leaking toilet gaskets • Replacing a toilet fill valve or flapper • Upgrading to a flexible toilet water supply line Watch through to the end to see how to confirm a proper seal, test the flush, and ensure your toilet is leak-free and operating efficiently.
