Are you aware that a visibly leaking toilet can waste more than 60,000 litres of water a year? It’s because toilets can leak from multiple locations from the cistern to the base, causing sewer overflows.
At The Plumber Next Door, we take water damage seriously. Beyond the environmental cost of water wastage, a leaking toilet that’s not fixed immediately can result in costly damage to your bathroom and surrounding property space.

This calls for replacement of the water inlet valve, which is a common repair for experienced plumbers.
The usual suspects causing water on the floor would be worn-out seals, either those connecting the cistern to the toilet bowl or the seal connecting the toilet bowl to the sewer.
This can be due to a deteriorated rubber washer that seals the cistern or it could indicate problems in the internal components of the toilet cistern. If the latter, replacing the entire toilet could be a more cost-effective solution.
The Plumber Next Door provides round-the-clock professional plumbing services for residential and commercial properties across Sydney’s North Shore, Northern Beaches, Eastern suburbs, and Inner West.
Doesn’t matter if it’s a minor or major toilet leak—best to get it fixed as soon as possible so it doesn’t run up your water bills or lead to more serious problems.
