If anyone has advice...

I gotta change the fill valve on the toilet as it keeps running for bout 30 seconds after it's meant to shut off.

Any advice for how to get around to get under to the nut? Seems to be in a hard to reach and tight area

"Are you on a ball cock ?"

Nope I'm not..

I'm not great at plumbing but pretty sure I can do this just really hard to get at the nut.

The flex pipe is in the way for me to get my head down there lol

Maybe try just servicing the old ballcock first,it could just be something stuck around the valve and it wouldn't really be worth changing all of it if it's only that.

Plumber here you could try adjusting the ball valve or if that doesn’t work tsp spanner should undo the nut or if not got one try a normal spanner should work
