You don’t have to be particularly handy to tackle these common plumbing-related jobs around the house.

1. Switching a Toilet Seat

Changing a toilet seat just depends on removing and replacing a few nuts and bolts. Just make sure you buy the right size and shape and you’ll be all set. A new toilet seat kit will come with the nuts and bolts you need, so just make sure you have the right wrench on-hand.

2. Replacing a Washing Machine Hose

If you need to change a washing machine hose, all you need is a new hose and a pair of pliers. It’s a quick project that you can do on your own – just unplug the machine, then turn off both water valves, and match up the hoses with the right connections.

3. Replacing a Toilet Flapper

The underwater valve in your toilet tank – called the toilet flapper – is easy to replace. Just turn off the water valve and unscrew the old one. Then, replace what was in there with your new flapper… and celebrate a job well-done.
