Broken toilets are a huge inconvenience for Melbourne homes and workplaces. Whether you’ve started to notice small cracks in the tank or strange noises coming from your cistern, getting to the root of the issue is key for keeping this essential piece of bathroom equipment operating effectively.
From blocked drains to constant running water, there’s no problem that our plumbing professionals can’t fix. Here at Service Experts, we’ve been providing tailored and timely toilet repair solutions across Melbourne and the surrounding areas since 2002.

Ignoring little leaks or attempting to unblock the toilet DIY-style may save you a few dollars initially. However, this approach could end up being more expensive in the long run when the toilet floods your bathroom or needs completely replacing.
We’d therefore always recommend hiring a professional clogged toilet plumber to resolve those small water flow or leaking issues before they become more complex and harder to fix. Some of the key signs that your toilet may be working quite as it should include:
Anything from paper or wet pipes to hair can block your drain lines, making it impossible for the toilet to flush. Another reason for this could be an incorrectly installed flush handle or flapper, which may be too loose or tight.
Either a broken flushing mechanism or poor water flow could be the culprit behind those unfamiliar sounds that occur when flushing the toilet. A noisy toilet may indicate that the valve supply isn’t completely open, allowing water to pour constantly into the pan.
Water constantly flowing from the fill valve into the tank wastes a large amount of water, which also increases your bills. This could be caused by a broken flapper or dirty fill valves.
Water seeping from the tank or cistern and pooling around the base of your toilet can indicate a variety of issues. We’ll check to see if your water valve should be replaced or whether the supply line needs tightening, as well as inspecting the tank for any cracks to prevent mould growth and flooring damage.
A pan that doesn’t fill as quickly as it should is another potential sign that the water valve is closed or debris has started to build up, which often requires a simple clean.
While they can last for up to 50 years, toilets that are 25 years or older are generally less efficient than modern models. These older systems waste gallons of water and produce higher energy bills each month, not to mention requiring frequent repairs, all of which can be incredibly costly.
That’s why we offer a comprehensive toilet installation service to completely replace the system, whether your toilet keeps becoming clogged or has simply reached the end of its lifespan. We may also recommend updating your toilet system if:
Our experts help with everything from checking that your drain pipes and water supply lines are operating effectively to advising you on the best model for your home, including wall hung, dual flush, rimless, and close coupled toilets. We also provide a free, no-obligation quote as part of our transparent pricing guarantee to ensure that the job fits into your budget.

Starting off with the plumbing team, Josh first came in and assessed the situation and put us on the right course. Then we had Kevin and Luke come in. Luke fitted off our kitchen to a very high standard and Kevin fitted off our powder room with excellence. We also had the electrical team come in and do some major work.

The most common plumbing job in Melbourne homes is toilet unblocking, which we’ll use a bell-shaped toilet plunger to complete. Another common repair comes as a result of leaking toilets, an issue that is often caused by a broken or aging flapper at the bottom of the tank.
Toilets that won’t stop running can cost anywhere from $50 to $400 to fix, depending on the cause of the problem. Quick and simple repair jobs like having too much water in the tank are on the lower end of the price scale, while issues with the flappers or refill tubes cost more to replace.
Small repairs like installing a new handle or unclogging the tank are easy to perform, meaning they’re generally cheap. However, bigger and more complex fixes such as large cracks and constant running can be more expensive than replacement in the long run. Installing a new toilet may also be a more cost-efficient option if it is around 25 years old.
Small blockages can generally be cleared using a high-quality plunger. However, if your toilet frequently becomes clogged, has a crack, leaks, or emits strange noises, calling a professional plumber is generally the wisest choice to ensure that these more complex problems are properly fixed. Plumbing experts also ensure safe and seamless installation when installing a new toilet.
