Hi, I’m looking for someone to help replace two toilet seats in our home. I’d like you to: Confirm the correct size/shape for both toilets Source or recommend suitable good-quality replacement seats. I’m looking for soft-close, preferably quick-release, rather than basic/budget seats Remove and dispose of the existing seats and install the new ones Ideally take care of the whole job so I don’t need to source the seats separately I’ve already measured one toilet pan (they are both the same). It is D-shaped, approximately 424mm from the centre of the mounting holes to the front, 370mm wide, with 155mm between the fixing holes. However, would like this checked and confirmed Happy to pay separately for the cost of the seats. Looking for someone experienced with this who can make sure we get a good fit and tidy finish.
