Leaking toilet repairs

A running cistern and a leak onto the floor require different investigations.

Little Bay Plumbing · Sydney

Understanding the issue

Start with the right diagnosis.

Water continuously entering the bowl may involve an inlet or outlet valve. A wet floor may instead come from the supply connection, cistern fittings, pan seal or condensation.

How we approach the work

Diagnosis should establish the actual leak path and check whether the cistern and pan are secure before choosing a repair.

Before you book

If a toilet has loose fixings, visible cracks or an uncontrolled leak, isolate it if safe and avoid using it until assessed.

Service questions

Useful answers about leaking toilet repairs.

Why does my toilet keep running?

A cistern that keeps refilling may have an inlet valve that does not close or an outlet seal allowing water into the bowl. Look for water moving into the bowl after the flush finishes. A plumber can identify which component is failing rather than replacing parts at random.

Why is water pooling around my toilet?

Water on the floor can originate from a supply connection, cistern fittings, the pan seal or condensation. Dry the visible area where safe, note whether water appears after flushing or continuously, and stop using the toilet if it is unstable.
