where I am now. All right, so removing toilets is way easier than a lot of people think. There's really just two nuts underneath these little white covers that are there. Once you unscrew them off, you then disconnect your water valve. Make sure it's turned off. And at that point, just pick it up and take it out. I will say this, give it one last flush if you can. Once that's drained in the reservoir, there's some water still backing up here to prevent any kind of spillage as you're carrying it out to the house and covering your floors with whatever water is left there. Um, if you have a bathtub, just drain the rest of it there and then carry it out. How do I know that? made plenty of mistakes. [Music] When it comes to removing tile, for the most part, my experience, the tile pops off the wall cleanly without destroying the drywall like 1% of the time. It's so rare. Every once in a while, I get lucky. And I think this is probably the second time in my life I ever got lucky where I was able to use my stiff putty brush or a stiff putty knife and uh pop them off without damaging the drywall. Now I'm still going to cut the drywall. So I don't care if it's damaged, but this just feels kind of nice. I'm just taking a hammer and from an angle on top popping it off just like that. So we're just going to keep trucking along this
