Shutting off the Water Supply to a Toilet

Inleiding

Use this guide to shut off the water supply to your toilet. This procedure is an important step for most toilet repairs.

Shut off the stop valve underneath the toilet by turning it clockwise until it becomes hand tight.
The appearance of this valve may differ from toilet to toilet, but most operate the same. Some valves require multiple turns to stop the water while others only require a quarter turn.
