Step 6 · Final Checks and Cleanup

Slowly turn the water shutoff valve counter-clockwise to turn the water back on. Listen for the tank to fill. Once it stops filling, inspect the water supply line connection at the tank for any drips. Flush the toilet completely. As the bowl refills, use a flashlight and dry paper towels to meticulously check for any signs of water leaking from around the base of the toilet. Wipe the entire perimeter where the toilet meets the floor. If the paper towel stays dry, the seal is good. Flush several more times to be certain. If no leaks are detected, the project is complete. Clean up your tools and materials.
