Toilets fail in four ways: they run, they leak, they block, or they wear out. Two of those can wait for morning. Two cannot.

The bowl is rising and will not go down
A pan filling towards the rim has a blocked line behind it. Do not flush again, because the next flush has nowhere to go.
Book a daytime visit
A weak flush that clears on a second go
Often a partly blocked rim jet or a low water level in the cistern. It needs fixing, but it will not overflow tonight.
Call us now
Water pouring out of the cistern
A split cistern or a failed inlet fitting can put water on the floor faster than you can mop. Turn the small tap by the toilet clockwise to close it.
Book a daytime visit
Condensation or a light sweat on the cistern
Cold water in a warm bathroom makes the cistern damp on the outside. That is not a leak.
Call us now
Water pooling round the base of the pan
A failed seal at the pan connection lets sewage water onto the floor. Over time it rots the floor and can reach the room below.
Book a daytime visit
A toilet that runs for a few seconds after flushing
The water is leaking past a worn flush valve or float, and it fills the bowl again. It wastes water and rings up the bill, not the floor.
Call us now
A cracked pan or cistern
Porcelain that is cracked through will not hold, and a pan can fail without warning. Stop using it and call us.
Book a daytime visit
A wobbly seat, a loose pan or a worn flush button
These are cheap fixes, but a pan that rocks can break its seal. Worth booking in the next few days.

Toilet repair or replacement: which fault you have
Every toilet fault falls into one of four groups, and each has a different fix. Choose the one that matches what you see.
Water trickles into the bowl, or the cistern refills every few minutes without a flush. The inlet valve, the float or the flush valve seal has worn out.
We replace the worn part inside the cistern, set the water level and adjust the flush so it stops where it should.
A cistern full of old parts is sometimes cheaper to replace as a set than to chase one by one, and we tell you which it is.
Work out where the water is: the supply hose and tap, the cistern body, the cistern to pan link, or the base. A dry paper towel held against each joint shows you.
We replace the failed seal, hose or connector. A leak at the pan base means lifting the pan and renewing the seal underneath it.
If the floor around it is soft or stained, we tell you what we see before we refit the pan.
One toilet that will not clear while every other drain runs is almost always a blockage in the pan trap or the short line behind it.
We clear it with a toilet auger or a cable machine, and a camera if it keeps coming back, so we know whether it is the pan or the pipe.
If other fixtures gurgle or back up too, the blockage is in the main line, and we move on to the drain.
Cracks, rust stains, a pan that never quite empties or parts that are no longer made all point to replacing the toilet. Moving a toilet is a bigger job than swapping like for like.
In NSW, fitting a new toilet or cistern connects to the water supply and the sewer, so it must be done by a licensed plumber, and we give you the paperwork.
We remove the old toilet, fit the new one level and sealed, connect the water supply and test every flush before we leave.

What toilet repairs and replacement cost in Sydney
A new cistern valve and a full toilet installation are very different jobs, so the toilet repair cost depends on which fault you have and what you want in its place. Everything is quoted up front.
The fault itself
A running cistern is a parts job inside the tank. A leak at the base means lifting the pan. A blockage depends on how far down it sits.
Parts or a new suite
Replacing the inlet valve, flush valve or seal is a small job. Replacing the whole pan and cistern is a bigger one, but ends the repeat visits.
Which toilet you choose
Close coupled, back to wall, wall faced and in-wall cistern toilets are priced very differently, and in-wall ones need more work.
Where the pipes sit
A toilet set against the same pipes is quick. Changing where the outlet sits, such as from the floor to the wall, adds work.
Floor and fittings around it
A soft floor, a corroded stop tap or an old flexible hose needs attention at the same visit, and we tell you before we fit anything.

Frequently asked questions
What should I do if my toilet won’t flush properly?
Many factors can cause flushing issues, such as a faulty flush mechanism, low water levels, or blocked rim jets, and a professional plumber can diagnose and fix these fast.
Why is there water leaking around the base of my toilet?
Leaks can indicate worn seals or cracks in the toilet, and should be inspected to prevent water damage and further problems.
Why does my toilet keep running or make constant noise?
Constant running or unusual noise often points to problems with the cistern or flush valve, which require timely repair to stop water waste.
What causes frequent toilet blockages or weak flushes?
Blocked pipes, poor water pressure, or internal faults can all cause recurring blockages or weak flushes, making it important to have a licensed plumber assess the issue.
How much does a toilet repair cost in Sydney?
It depends on the fault. A cistern valve or seal is a short visit, while lifting the pan to renew its seal takes longer. A blockage depends on how deep it sits. There is no fee to attend, and you approve the price before anyone picks up a tool.
Does replacing a toilet in NSW need a licensed plumber?
Yes. A toilet connects to both the water supply and the sewer, so NSW law puts the job with a licensed plumber, working to the plumbing code. You can change a seat yourself. Replacing the pan, the cistern or any plumbed in part is licensed work.
Why does my toilet keep running after I flush?
Water is leaking past a worn flush valve seal, or the float is set too high so the inlet never shuts. Both are small parts inside the cistern. A toilet that refills every few minutes by itself is worth fixing, because the waste adds up.
Why is water leaking from the base of my toilet?
Usually the seal between the pan and the floor outlet has failed, or the pan has moved. Sometimes it is a leak from the cistern running down the back. We find the source before we replace anything, because a wet floor can look the same for all three.
Can you install a new toilet I have bought myself?
Yes, if it suits the position of your outlet. Check whether it is a floor or wall outlet before you buy, and tell us the model. We can also supply and install a toilet, and we remove and take away the old one.
When should I replace a toilet instead of repairing it?
When the porcelain is cracked, parts are no longer made, it blocks again and again, or the repair would cost close to a new toilet. A toilet that is still sound inside a worn cistern can often be repaired for far less.
Should I use a plunger or drain cleaner on a blocked toilet?
A plunger is safe and worth trying once or twice. Do not pour in caustic drain cleaner. It sits in the bowl, and if the blockage does not shift, the next person to work on it is exposed to it. Tell us if you have already used one.
Which areas of Sydney do your toilet plumbers service?
Toilet plumbing is covered right across Sydney: Canterbury-Bankstown, the Sutherland Shire, the Hills District, the Northern Beaches and North Shore, the Eastern Suburbs, Inner West and City, and Sydney's west and south west. The closest plumber is sent with parts on board.
