Why does my toilet keep running after a flush?
Usually the inlet valve not shutting off, or the outlet valve seal not sealing. Both are common parts and both are generally a straightforward repair rather than a new suite.

A toilet visit is usually short: the cistern comes off or opens up, the failed valve or seal is replaced, the water level is set where it should be, and both the flush and the refill get tested before anyone leaves. The price is agreed first, and the common parts are already on the van.
Beckenham properties can see regular maintenance needs from tenants, busy households and older fixtures. Small leaks, slow drains and toilet issues are worth sorting early before they become larger repairs. Locally that means established properties and rentals often need careful checks around older fixtures, drains and external pipework.
If you would like the longer version first, there is more on how we approach toilet repairs — the usual causes, the fix, and what we check before we leave.
