Toilet and cistern repairs

Toilet faults range from simple inlet or flush-valve problems to drainage or installation defects. The visible symptom helps determine which part should be investigated first.

Constant running water

A cistern that continues filling or sends water into the pan can waste significant water. Typical causes include inlet-valve problems, incorrect water level, failed seals or flush-valve defects. Identify the component before replacing the complete mechanism.

Leaks around the toilet

Water around a pan can come from the supply connection, cistern, pan connector, seals or condensation. Dry the area and observe when the leak appears: during filling, while standing, or only when flushing.

Repeated blockages

If the same toilet blocks repeatedly, consider more than the immediate obstruction. The pan, connector, branch drain, venting and downstream drainage may need investigation.
