Toilet That Keeps Running

If you can hear water trickling into the pan long after you flush, the fill valve or flush valve is usually to blame. A worn seal lets water leak through, so the cistern keeps topping itself up. It wastes water all day, and it is often a quick part to replace.

More Information

Weak or Broken Flush

A flush that only works after a few tries, or not at all, often means a broken push button, a worn siphon or a snapped link inside the cistern. Older lever toilets and newer push button models fail in different ways. We check which type you have and fit the right part.

Leaks Around the Base

Water on the floor around the toilet can come from the cistern bolts, the inlet pipe or the seal where the pan meets the waste pipe. It is worth sorting quickly, as constant damp can rot floorboards. We find which joint is leaking and reseal or replace it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my toilet keep running, and can you fix it in Hedge End?

A running toilet is usually caused by a worn fill valve or flush valve seal. Water keeps leaking from the cistern into the pan, so the cistern refills over and over. It is a common fault, and in most Hedge End homes it is fixed with a simple part swap.

Is it better to repair or replace a toilet in Hedge End?

Most toilet faults can be repaired, as the parts inside the cistern are made to be replaced. Replacing the whole toilet makes more sense if the pan or cistern is cracked, if parts are no longer made, or if you want a new style. We will tell you which is the better option.

Can a plumber fix a blocked toilet in Hedge End?

Yes. Try a plunger first, using firm up and down pushes. Do not keep flushing, as the pan can overflow. If the toilet stays blocked or other drains are slow too, the blockage may be further down the waste pipe, and we can come and clear it.
