The In-Wall Cistern Problems We Fix

Most concealed cistern faults are fixed through the flush plate opening, without touching the tiles.

Fixed Price Quotes

Once we have opened the flush plate and seen the fault, you get one price for the repair. It holds even if both the inlet and outlet valve need replacing.

No Call-Out Fee*

Getting a plumber out to look at your in-wall cistern costs you nothing during business hours. Nothing is charged for the repair until you have said yes to the price.

How Bad Is It?

Three ways an in-wall cistern fails, and what each one usually means.

Leaking now

Water On The Floor

Water around the base of the toilet or seeping from the wall means a seal, connector or hose is leaking. Turn the stop tap off and call.
Always running

Runs Into The Bowl Nonstop

A trickle into the bowl or a cistern that keeps refilling is almost always a worn outlet or inlet valve. It wastes water every hour until it is fixed.
Not flushing

Button Stuck Or Weak Flush

A jammed half-flush button or a weak flush usually comes from the button linkage or valve inside. Both are reached through the flush plate.

In-Wall Cistern FAQs

Answer:

It depends on which part has failed and whether parts are still made for your cistern. Replacing an inlet or outlet valve is quoted as one fixed price before we start, and you approve it first. There is nothing to pay just for us to come and look during business hours.

Answer:

The usual faults are a toilet that keeps running into the bowl, a cistern that will not fill, a stuck flush button, a weak flush, and leaks from the stop tap, hose or pan connector. Nearly all of them come from a worn valve, seal or button linkage.

Answer:

Almost never. In-wall cisterns are designed to be serviced through the flush plate opening, so we reach the valves without removing tiles.

Answer:

You can take the flush plate off and check whether the button linkage has come loose, which sometimes fixes a stuck button. Replacing valves inside the cistern needs the right parts for your brand and is a job for a licensed plumber.

Answer:

Water trickling into the bowl usually means the outlet valve seal is worn. A cistern that keeps refilling or hisses usually has a faulty inlet valve. Both are replaced through the flush plate.

Answer:

Take off the flush plate and look for the small isolation tap inside the access opening. If you cannot find it or it will not turn, turn the water off at the meter and call.

Answer:

Yes. Leaks under the pan usually come from the pan connector or the flush pipe seals. We take the pan off, replace the seals, refit it and test for leaks.
