A toilet that won't stop running is typically caused by a degraded flapper valve or an incorrectly positioned float arm inside the cistern. When these components fail to seal properly, water constantly escapes from the tank into the bowl, which can waste hundreds of liters of water daily.

You need a complete toilet replacement if the ceramic bowl or cistern has physical cracks, or if the system requires frequent, costly repairs that outweigh the cost of a new unit. Minor mechanical issues—such as a weak or incomplete flush, a broken lever, or a faulty fill valve—can easily be resolved with an affordable repair.
