Overview
Running, rocking, leaking, or not flushing. Repair or swap.
A toilet is the most used fixture in the house and the one most likely to be quietly costing you money. A flapper that no longer seals can waste in the region of two hundred gallons a day while making almost no sound.
Most households discover it through the water bill rather than the noise.
The Cheapest Repair In Plumbing
If your toilet runs, hisses intermittently, or refills itself without being flushed, the flapper has almost certainly hardened and stopped sealing. It is an inexpensive part and a short visit, and it frequently pays for itself inside a single billing cycle.
A simple test: put a few drops of food colouring in the tank and leave it for twenty minutes without flushing. If colour appears in the bowl, the flapper is leaking.
Rocking Toilets Are Not Cosmetic
Any movement at the base means the wax seal is being worked loose. Once it is compromised, water from each flush goes into the subfloor instead of the drain, and it is not clean water.
Caught early, this is a wax ring and a reset. Left for a year or two, it becomes a section of floor. It is worth acting on the first time you notice it move.
What Does It Cost?
Internal component repairs are at the inexpensive end and usually done in one visit. A reset on a new wax ring is modestly more. A full replacement depends on the fixture you choose. We diagnose it, give you a free estimate, and where replacement is genuinely the better value we will say so.

Scope of Work
What's In Every Toilet Repair Call
Running Toilets Fixed Properly
A silently running toilet is one of the largest avoidable items on a water bill. It is also usually a part costing very little, which makes it the best-value repair in plumbing.
Rocking Toilets Reset Correctly
Movement at the base means the seal is compromised and water is reaching the subfloor. We reset it on a fresh wax ring and secure it properly rather than simply tightening the bolts.
Honest Repair Versus Replace
A cracked bowl or tank is not repairable and no sealant makes it so. Almost everything else is. We will tell you plainly which one you have.
We Check The Floor Underneath
A toilet that has been leaking at the base for a while has often affected the subfloor. Better to know now than to discover it during a bathroom remodel.
How It Works
Our Step-By-Step Process
- Step 1
Watch A Full Cycle
Nearly every toilet fault identifies itself within one complete flush and refill. We watch the flush strength, how the flapper seats as the tank empties, whether the fill valve shuts off cleanly, and where the water level settles relative to the overflow tube. Water trickling over the overflow means the fill valve or float needs adjusting or replacing. Water disappearing from the tank with no flush means the flapper is not sealing. It takes a couple of minutes and it usually gives the whole answer.
- Step 2
Check For Movement And Leaks At The Base
We take hold of the bowl and check for any rocking, then look carefully at the floor around the base and at the supply connection. Any movement at all means the wax seal is being worked loose and water is going into the subfloor rather than the drain. Damp, discoloured grout, or a soft spot in the flooring nearby tells us it has been happening for a while, which changes what the repair needs to include.
- Step 3
Separate Toilet Faults From Drain Faults
A toilet that flushes weakly or blocks repeatedly may not be the toilet at all. Blocked rim jets from mineral buildup, a partially blocked trap, or a problem further down the [drain line](/services/drain-cleaning) all look similar from the seat. We establish which it is before quoting, because replacing a perfectly good toilet will not fix a main line that is the actual problem.
- Step 4
Repair Or Replace, With The Numbers
Most faults are internal components and are repaired the same visit for a modest cost. Replacement genuinely makes sense in a few cases: a cracked bowl or tank, which cannot be repaired safely by anyone, a very old high-volume unit where a modern low-flow model will pay for itself, or a toilet needing several repairs at once on an already aged fixture. You get both numbers and you choose.
- Step 5
Test It Properly Before Leaving
After the repair we run several full cycles, checking the flush clears properly, the tank refills to the correct level, the fill valve shuts off completely, and nothing weeps at the base or the supply connection. On a reset toilet we check the seal has taken and the fixture sits solid. Then we leave the old parts with you so you can see what failed.

FAQs
About Toilet Repair
-
Almost always the flapper. Rubber hardens and distorts over time and stops sealing against the flush valve, so water escapes from the tank into the bowl and the fill valve keeps topping it up. It is an inexpensive part. If a new flapper does not resolve it, the next suspects are the fill valve itself or a flush valve seat that has become pitted.
-
A continuously running toilet can waste in the region of two hundred gallons a day, and a badly failed one considerably more. It often makes little noise, which is why the first sign for many households is a water bill that has jumped for no apparent reason. It is the cheapest repair in plumbing and one of the highest returns.
-
Yes, more than people expect. Every movement works the wax seal loose, and once that seal is compromised, water from each flush goes into the subfloor instead of the drain. It rots quietly out of sight and the repair grows from a wax ring to a section of floor. Get it reset while it is still just a wax ring.
-
It should be dealt with promptly. Water at the base means the wax seal has failed and what is reaching your floor is not clean water. Beyond the damage to the subfloor there is a genuine hygiene issue. The repair is usually straightforward if it is caught early.
-
Often not. Mineral deposits block the small rim jets under the bowl rim over time, which weakens the flush considerably while the toilet itself remains perfectly serviceable. A partially blocked trap or a problem in the drain line produces similar symptoms. All three are worth ruling out before buying a new fixture.
-
No. Epoxies and sealants marketed for it do not hold, because the crack moves every time the fixture is loaded and flushed. A cracked tank or bowl is a replacement, and a cracked tank in particular can fail suddenly and release its full contents onto the floor.
