[DIY] RE: toilet valve

 

If the shut-off valve doesn't work, or if it leaks when you close it, you have two options.  Of course you have to shut off the water first.
 
You can replace it.
... or ...
You can put another valve on the output side of it.  They sell them at Lowe's so I'm sure Home Depot or Ace would have them.  This is the option especially if you're concerned that there is a problem with taking the old one off.  May not look great, having two valves connected together like that, but it's better than rerunning plumbing.

I only flushed it once since the toy went in. And it didn't seem right. The plumber confirms the toy is in the trap, so I'm assuming toilet paper will catch and cause a greater issue. 

If the toy went down the waste pipe, couldn't that be a great issue as well? 

I'm Intending on Removing it tomorrow unless I have an issue with the shut off valve which hasn't been turned in years. If that does not work then I have a whole different can of works since I never Sweated pipe.
