  • Our job is to fix this toilet seat.

  • It's had an accident, and as you can see, it's very badly cracked.

  • I have gloves.

  • That is a necessity because of what we're working with, some water, sponge, and a bit

  • of cleaner to make sure that we can get the toilet clean whilst we've got it off.

  • We do have the new toilet seat.

  • Again, a very easy operation.

  • First things first, rubber gloves on.

  • The first job were going to do is take the nuts off and then lift the lid off.

  • All right?

  • The nuts are on the underside and they actually hold the lid on.

  • We'll take those off.

  • We'll undo those.

  • That's one side.

  • Now, the other side.

  • Okay, they're undone.

  • Now, we can just lift the lid off.

  • You can see there are the two bolts.

  • We'll just put that aside for now.

  • As you can see here, under the seat where we've undone it, it's grubby.

  • What I'm going to do first, before I put the new one on, mold killer, bacteria killer,

  • whatever, just to get rid of all this muck.

  • What were going to do next is put the new lid on, which is that one there.

  • What we're going to do, we'll put these in there as such.

  • Take the wing nuts off.

  • We'll slide this in here now.

  • Wing nuts.

  • Again, just a little bit of patience.

  • Same on this side.

  • Okay.

  • All right, so we've now got the lid on.

  • We've tightened up the wing nuts on both sides so they're nice and tight.

  • The whole thing is now clean and it's now a fully-functioning lid.

  • It's tight.

  • It can lift up and down easily.

  • That's it.

  • The new lid is on.

Our job is to fix this toilet seat.
