Toilet DIY has never been that simple! Just follow our articles and in no time you will be doing toilet repairs yourself, but first let's learn the parts used on toilet repairs:

• Float ball: Ball at the end of float arm on plunger valve and diaphragm ball cocks. The float balls screws onto threads of the end of the float arm
• Tank Ball or Flapper: Rubber toilet tank element that seals the opening between tank and toilet bowl and, when raised by the handle, lets the tank water out to flush the bowl.
• Ball cocks: Automatic valve in toilet tank where movement of the float arm affects a plunger to control water entry into the tank.
