That gurgling, that smell, that slightly-too-slow sink — those are early warning signs worth paying attention to before things get worse.
Recurring blockages usually mean something structural is going on. We'll find it, show you the footage, and talk through a permanent fix.

We fully inspect the inside of your Melbourne, Geelong, Canberra or Ballarat drains with our CCTV cameras to find out exactly why your drain blocked up. By finding the root cause, we make sure it does not happen again.
We test and check all of your Melbourne, Geelong, Canberra or Ballarat drains with CCTV cameras before we start work and after we’re finished to ensure that our blocked drain service has worked.
Our experienced plumbers inspect the full toilet system, including internal cistern components, seals, inlet and outlet valves, and waste connections to ensure the underlying problem is properly resolved rather than temporarily patched.
If you are looking for a reliable plumber for toilet leak repairs, our team is ready to help.
Toilet leaks can develop gradually over time or appear suddenly due to worn components or system failure.
Some of the most common causes include:
Leaks around the base of the toilet often indicate a failed seal between the toilet and the waste outlet. This can lead to slow water seepage, staining, and potential damage to bathroom flooring if not addressed promptly.
If your toilet continues to run after flushing or the cistern repeatedly refills, it is often a sign that internal components, such as inlet or outlet valves, are faulty or worn.
The inlet and outlet valves regulate water flow into and out of the cistern. When these components fail, the toilet may continue to run, leak internally, or struggle to maintain correct water levels.
Rubber seals and internal cistern parts naturally wear out over time. Once these components deteriorate, water can escape slowly or continuously from the cistern.
Older toilet systems are more prone to recurring leaks due to ageing components, outdated designs, and general wear across multiple internal parts.
Not all toilet leaks are immediately visible. In many cases, water can leak internally without obvious signs, leading to increased water usage and higher bills over time.
Hidden leaks may present as:
Because these issues are not always visible, they can go unnoticed for long periods, resulting in significant water wastage.
Professional inspection by a plumber is often required to accurately detect and resolve hidden toilet leaks.
A leaking toilet can waste large volumes of water each day, especially when the cistern is constantly refilling or water is continuously escaping into the bowl.
Over time, this can significantly increase household water bills while placing unnecessary strain on plumbing systems.
Addressing toilet leaks early helps reduce water wastage and prevents further damage to internal components.

FAQ
Got questions? We've got answers. Find quick information about our services below.
At Fix-It Right Plumbing, we have invested in the training and equipment necessary to specialize in unblocking drains. Our Melbourne, Geelong, Canberra and Ballarat plumbers will do a very thorough analysis of your whole drain system and ask you questions to get as much information from you as possible before they recommend a procedure to unblock your drain.
More than a decade ago, the only real tool for cleaning drains was a cable drain machine (electric drain eel). They were a robust, relatively inexpensive, and reliable go-to tool for clearing and removing blockages from domestic and commercial drains. Although lots of plumbers these days still use them, water jet machines are increasing in popularity due to the ease of use and versatility but there are other reason to use a jet machine that few plumbers know about.
1. They are less likely to get jammed and stuck.
Your plumber should do a very thorough analysis of your whole drain system and ask you lots of questions to get as much information from you as possible before they recommend what they will do.
Because we charge by the job and not by the hour, you know exactly how much your clogged drain job will cost before we start. So you can sit back and relax while we take care of your drain problem, knowing there will be no nasty surprises at the end.
