How to fix a slow filling or broken toilet

In this video i will show you how to fix one of the most common issue with a wc/toilet.
After a few years the inlet in the toilet system can waste away and the result of this is that it can take from 3-10 mins for the system to refill after you have flushed it.
Follow this easy video guide on how to fix your slow filling toilet and save money as you dont need any special tools or knowledge.
Who wants to wait for a plumber anyway?

Didn't expect to find the exact same toilet as mine with the exact same problem. Now fixed. Thanks!

Great. Clear and straight to the point, no distracting music or aspirations to be Steven Spielberg. Well done.

Brilliant! I've been ignoring this problem for 6 months; fixed in 10 mins and for under £3 after following your instructions. Thank you!

[hypnagog]

Thank you. I was going to call a plumber today, but after watching your video I did exactly as you said and for under £5 I have become a family hero!

I bet you didnt expect to still be helping someone this many years after posting it 😂 thank you

Fantastic! I never write comments, but this video is definitely worth my first one!!

We moved to a new house with 3 loos 2 months ago... ensuite loo wasn't filling at all - it was just making a hissing sound and spraying water, and the downstairs loo wasn't flushing very much and was taking almost 10 minutes to fill for another rubbish weak flush.

Watched the video, sent the hubby to ScrewFix (B&Q didn't have the part) and for £9.90 (£4.45 each) fixed both toilets in half an hour!

I can't tell you how good it is to not have to either go up or down a flight of stairs to use the loo!! (It's a 3 storey town house) Thank you! 👍😀

Excellent! I have spent 10 minutes and £5 fixing our inlet - domestic harmony is restored. Thank you!

[MyFriendlyGiant]

Thank you for this video. I have just moved into my first flat and the cistern was taking 10 minutes to fill. I found your video with the exact system as mine; 15 minutes later, a £5 part and the toilet was fixed.

Considering I am absolutely useless with DIY, this video has just saved my life!

Easy to understand, very clear and straight the point. £5.39 from Screw Fix for replacement!

I'm pretty sure this is what is wrong with my toilet and i have been looking for a fix for ages. This is now my weekend job. Thank you.

Like others I've been putting off the slow filling toilet. Followed the video, had exactly this issue, 5.81 from screwfix for a new one and fixed. Total time taken including travel to screwfix about 45 mins. You sir, are a legend
