I never really learned much about anything that a homeowner would encounter as I grew up: plumbing, electrical, construction etc. That being said our toilet in our spare bath has been in dire need of replacement since we bought the house. We got a flyer from Home Depot this week featuring a complete toilet for only $79 bucks. It included the base, tank, plumbing guts, seat cover, wax ring and bolt caps. Not a bad deal if you ask me!
Long story short, in a little over an hour we ripped out the old one and put the new one it. It really wasn't that bad, considering I had absolutely no idea what I was doing. We only have a very small water leak and I think it is because I did not tighten the one tank bolt enough. Hopefully, re-tightening it will solve the problem! Glad we did it ourselves though - Home Depot wants freaking $149 minimum to install a toilet!
