I WANT TO SCREAM & cry !!!! My toilet has been running FOR WEEKS & Guest coming over for Christmas forced me to search YouTube! THANK YOU SOOOO SOOO MUCH! Seriously!

What a great deed you have done sharing this with everyone! Our toilet would run for like 15 minutes after each flush. My husband tried 2x to fix it and never could! But guess who fixed it?! You and me! Thank you so much! You’re seriously such a help! Plus, it gives women a better name ❤️

Hi Leah, I'm a first-time retired female viewer living alone. I selected your video from the ones I searched for by typing "how to fix a running toilet" because your's was the shortest. I'm so glad I did. My toilet just started running earlier today and once I made the "adjustment" you demonstrate in this video, it stopped. Magic! Thank you, so much. I have already subscribed to your channel because I know you just saved me at least a $99 plumber house call fee.

Thank you for posting the video. Happened to have a very similar system like yours, so was able to nip it in the bud. Soon as I adjusted it, bam, no running water. So simple, thank you for taking the time to create this video and for explaining it within 1 minute

I love her videos. I always feel like she's talking to me directly and I love the encouraging words at the end "You can do this!" My goal is to be a handy woman tackling the simple stuff around the house before I call in the troops. As my friends tell me "you got this girl" Thank you!!

[jachritaylor]

very simple fix. I tried to read & understand & visualize this problem & the solution..
this video was very helpful - I should have checked for this video WEEKS ago..!
thank you, seeJane..!

I had a running toilet and had asked my husband to check it over a week ago but he hasn’t had time to look at because of his work schedule so after watching this video today, I was able to fix it myself just a few minutes ago. Thanks for sharing.

This really helped me! All I had was metal deposits! Thank you so much for sharing this information!

Leah, thank you so much. After receiving my last three water bills that were extremely high, especially the one today, and shutting off the water valve after each flush, I couldn't take it anymore. After watching other videos and following their instructions proved futile, I came across your video. Simply turning the adjustment screw counter clockwise was the solution. Wow!

[yoyoqueen]

Thank you so much for this video. I did exactly what you said in this video and it worked. I am so happy.

Hi Leah, I want to let you know as a recently divorced woman living alone with my youngest daugther your video saved me. My toilet was running for days and then refused to flush and it was late into the night and I did not want to spend 100s of pounds I did not have to call out a plumber. Some of the videos on here were long and complicated and needed a technical fix in order to solve this issue. Your video was just right for a lone woman on her own who needed a quick fix for this issue. Thank you for getting to the point and solving the issue in under 5 minutes. I have saved your video for future reference and I am now a subscriber. Please keep up the good work for ladies like me! 😊

[ilabiossensuales]

thank you I’m having this exact problem so now I know you saved me from calling someone to fix it I really appreciate it 😊👍🏼

[melodeeplath]

O my goodness !
It's 3 am and I swear the stress of that toilet running in downstairs bath has been keeping me up at night.
I watched your video and went right downstairs and within 3 minutes had it FIXED 🙌🙌🙌 Thank you Jesus🙏 and Thank you Jane🌹

[calistagondry]

Leah, Your explanation of how to stop the continuous flow of water in the toilet tank was the most clear, concise and helpful than any of the others I have watched. I think I have the problem stopped but am keeping a watch on it to be sure. Thank you for getting to the point clearly,

[deannaclark]

Thank you! I think I just fixed our toilet that has been running for quite a while with everyone always juggling the handle to get the toilet to stop running. I liked that you spoke clearly and showed exactly what you were talking about. It was super helpful to me!

[jennymcfarland]

Thank you so much. I am a home health aide and I fixed the toilet at my clients house. Thank you so much. I’m sure it saves them a ton of money in plumbing costs. Turns out that that screw just needed adjusted.

[reraymo]

Thank you so much for all your videos. Im a first time homebuyer and have been undertaking a dmall bathroom remodel and trying to DIY as much as possible to save money, your videos have walked me through so many of my tasks and have really empowered me as both a woman and a homeowner, thank you for your lessons!

[mikeabney]

This video just gave me some relief! Thank you for showing this quick and incredibly easy adjustment.

[gaboosterTV]

This is why I love YouTube. I appreciate you taking the time to do this and also putting “on some models.” Mine was opposite of yours but it was the fix to stop the running water and now I also got the proper water level in place. Thank you for the friendly tutorial!

[edgarratilla]

Thank you, I fix the issue. Some DIY youtube videos are so lengthy but is not direct to the point. Your way was able to fix the issue I have immediately. Again, thank you!
