Toilet Repair and Installation

Toilet Troubles Solved – Repairs & New Installs

‍A malfunctioning toilet can range from a minor annoyance (the constant sound of running water) to a major headache (water all over the bathroom floor). Continuous Plumbing provides expert Toilet Repair and Installation services to keep this essential fixture in perfect working order. From fixing flushing issues to installing modern low-flow toilets, we ensure your toilets operate reliably and efficiently.

Common Toilet Repairs

Our plumbers are experienced in diagnosing and fixing all types of toilet issues:

Running or Leaking Toilet

If your toilet keeps running water into the bowl after flushing, or you notice water seeping onto the floor from the base or tank, we can help. Often the culprit is a worn-out flapper valve, a faulty fill valve, or a deteriorated rubber seal. We carry replacement parts for all standard toilet brands. We’ll replace the faulty components (e.g. install a new flapper or inlet valve) and adjust the flush mechanism so that the water stops where it should. A constantly running toilet can waste hundreds of litres a day, so fixing this will save water and money.

Weak or Partial Flush

Is your toilet flushing weakly, or do you need to flush twice? This can be caused by clogged rim jets, a flapper not opening fully, or insufficient tank water level. We’ll clean out any mineral deposits blocking the flush holes and make sure the cistern mechanics are set correctly. If there’s a partial blockage in the trap or waste pipe, we’ll clear that too, restoring a powerful, one-time flush.

Clogs and Backups

A toilet that’s completely blocked and won’t drain is no match for our equipment. We use plungers or closet augers (a special snake designed for toilets) to dislodge the blockage. In stubborn cases, we can remove the toilet to access and clear the obstruction. We also check the main sewer line to ensure the blockage isn’t part of a larger issue. Tip: Never keep flushing a clogged toilet – it can overflow. Turn off the water valve at the base and call us for prompt assistance.

Loose or Wobbly Toilet

If your toilet moves or rocks when you sit down, the mounting bolts may be loose or the wax seal might be compromised. We’ll reseat the toilet securely: tighten or replace flange bolts and install a new wax seal (or modern rubber gasket seal) to ensure a watertight fit to the floor waste. This stops leaks at the base and eliminates that unsettling wobble.

Toilet Installation & Replacement

Upgrading your bathroom or need a new toilet installed? Continuous Plumbing handles new installations with precision. We can install all styles of toilets – from two-piece close-coupled suites to sleek wall-faced units or contemporary concealed cistern systems. Our team will help you choose a model that fits your plumbing setup and preferences, including water-saving dual-flush options to reduce your water usage. On installation day, we’ll:

• Shut off water and remove the old toilet (and dispose of it responsibly, if requested).
• Inspect the floor flange and drain for any damage or buildup, fixing it as needed to ensure a good connection.
• Securely mount and seal the new toilet, aligning it properly and bolting it down tight.
• Connect the water supply and fill valve, then thoroughly test for any leaks around the base and tank.
  We finish by applying neat silicone caulking at the base (if appropriate) to prevent any external water ingress and give a clean look.

Quality Parts and Guaranteed Work

‍We use high-quality replacement parts for repairs so you won’t have the same problem reoccurring. All our toilet repairs and installs come with our workmanship guarantee – if anything isn’t right after we’re done (which is rare), we’ll return and fix it promptly at no extra cost. Our plumbers also ensure the work area is left clean – we’ll wipe down your toilet and floor, so aside from a perfectly functioning loo, you wouldn’t know we’d been there!
