Any toilet repair experts here?

This could be a good life lesson. Get him a new toilet for Christmas. Tell him this is what being an adult is all about. Leave the water off and he's gotta install it.
Either way just get a new toilet. But this suggestion is great, and also one that I have personally deployed....

obviously not, but i was always hands on make things work growing up so the whole concept of 'call the guy' is foreign to me for most things.
 
Somewhere above someone suggest to buy a new chair height toilet. When I redid the “kids” (teenagers) bathroom last year I got one of these and it’s so much better and saves more water than that 23 year old thing. The only PITA thing was I had to
Drive 40 min to a HD that had it in almond color cause that’s what the wife wanted

Honestly unless the old one has sentimental value somehow I would just replace it.

And btw it’s a lot of fun to smash the old
One with a sledgehammer to make
It fit in the garbage bag and avoid paying an extra garbage pickup fee. Ask me how I know.
