Common Toilet Problems We Fix
If your toilet isn’t working quite right, it’s more than an inconvenience, it’s a plumbing problem waiting to get worse.
At Assure Fix Plumbing, we specialise in identifying and fixing a wide range of toilet issues before they turn into major repairs.
Leading Causes of Blocked or Faulty Toilets:
- Toilets that flush slowly or not at all
- Persistent leaks around the base or cistern
- Unusual noises like gurgling, hissing, or banging after flushing
- Flush buttons or handles that don’t respond properly
- Flushing that’s intermittent or inconsistent
- Cracked or damaged cisterns, bowls, or internal parts
Our licensed plumbers have experience with all toilet types, from modern dual-flush models to older systems.
No matter the brand, setup, or severity of the issue, we’ll get things flowing smoothly again with quality repairs and no guesswork.
Common Signs of a Blocked Toilet
Blocked toilets often start with subtle warning signs before turning into full-blown plumbing emergencies. Recognising these early can save you time, money, and a lot of stress.
Here’s what to watch for:
- Water rising too high in the bowl or draining slower than normal
- Blockages that keep coming back even after using a plunger
- Gurgling or bubbling sounds from the toilet or nearby drains after flushing
- Unpleasant smells in your bathroom that linger, no matter how much you clean
- Water overflowing or weak flushes leaving waste behind
These signs usually point to a partial blockage or a deeper issue in your drainage system. If you notice any of them, don’t wait for it to get worse, call Assure Fix Plumbing.
Our local team will respond quickly, identify the cause, and get your toilet flowing smoothly again without the mess or drama.
What Causes Toilet Blockages?
Blocked toilets are one of the most common plumbing issues we see, and they can happen for a variety of reasons. While some blockages are caused by everyday habits, others result from hidden problems deep within your plumbing system.
Here are the most common culprits behind toilet blockages:
- Flushing items like wipes, sanitary products, paper towels, or too much toilet paper
- Build-up of organic waste, scale, or mineral deposits over time
- Tree roots sneaking into cracked or weakened sewer lines
- Collapsed or damaged underground pipes that restrict flow
- Poorly designed plumbing layouts or outdated systems that can’t handle modern usage
No matter what’s causing the problem, our experienced plumbers will get to the root of it quickly.
We use professional equipment to locate and clear the blockage safely, and give you honest advice to help stop it from happening again.
Signs It’s Time to Call a Plumber for Your Leaking Toilet
Even a small toilet leak can waste thousands of litres of water over time, not to mention drive up your water bill. While some leaks are easy to spot, others are hidden behind walls or under the cistern, slowly causing damage.
Here are some telltale signs your toilet may be leaking and needs professional attention:
- You hear water running even when the toilet hasn’t been used
- Visible water pooling around the base of the toilet
- Unexplained increases in your water bill
- The cistern refills on its own or takes longer than usual
- Mould, damp smells, or staining near the toilet or floor
- Rust or corrosion on plumbing connections or bolts
Our team at Assure Fix Plumbing will quickly diagnose the issue, locate the source of the leak, and carry out a lasting repair, saving you water, money, and future stress.
Troubleshooting Faulty Flushing Mechanisms in Your Toilet
If your toilet isn’t flushing like it should, or worse, not flushing at all, the problem is likely with the internal flush mechanism. These small but important components wear out over time or get stuck, making your toilet unreliable or completely unusable.
Here are some common signs of a faulty flushing mechanism:
- Handle feels loose or unresponsive when pressed
- Push button doesn’t activate a full flush
- Toilet flushes continuously or won’t stop running
- Weak or incomplete flush that leaves waste behind
- Water takes too long to refill after flushing
At Assure Fix Plumbing, we can inspect and repair or replace faulty parts. whether it’s a worn-out seal, broken button, cracked handle, or an internal component that’s jammed.
We service all toilet types and brands, restoring full function fast and cleanly, with no mess left behind.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)
What should I do if my toilet is blocked?
Avoid flushing repeatedly as this can cause the water to overflow. If you have a plunger, try using it gently. If the blockage is severe or you don’t have a plunger, call us immediately to prevent potential issues.
How do I know if my toilet needs repairing or replacing?
If your toilet is constantly running, leaking, flushing poorly, or is very old and inefficient, it might be time for a repair or replacement.
Can you fix all types of toilet problems?
Yes, our experienced plumbers can handle a wide range of toilet issues, from simple blockages and leaks to complex flushing mechanism problems and cracked fixtures.
How long does a typical toilet repair take?
Most minor repairs, like clearing a simple blockage or fixing a flapper, can be completed within an hour. More complex repairs or replacements will take longer, but we’ll always provide an estimated timeframe.
Is it okay to use chemical drain cleaners for a blocked toilet?
We generally advise against using chemical drain cleaners as they can damage your pipes and often don’t fully resolve the blockage. They can also pose a risk to your health. It’s best to call a professional plumber for safe and effective solutions.
