SIX7 PLUMBING
SIX7 Plumbing Toilet Repair Colombo
Ghost flushes, running cisterns, base leaks — dye-tested, internals replaced to spec, and re-tested before we leave so the water waste actually stops.
Flappers perish and fill valves scale; the cistern then overfills or weeps, and you hear it as a ghost flush at 3AM. A running toilet wastes thousands of litres a month — the bill shows it before anyone opens the lid. We dye-test to find the loss, replace internals to spec, set the float and fill line, and re-test.
Base leaks split two ways: a seal (fixable) or a hairline pan crack (replace). The dye test tells you which before you spend on either, and we say so plainly. And no, a brick in the cistern does not save water — it wrecks flush volume and fouls the flapper, which is how a cheap habit becomes a repair call.

Common Toilet Repair Issues We Fix
Toilet runs non-stop
A toilet that never stops running is wasting thousands of litres of water every month. We replace the flapper, fill valve, and set the float to spec.
Ghost flush at night
Hearing your toilet flush at 3 AM? That's a ghost flush. We dye-test to find the leak and replace the faulty internals.
Weak flush, double-push
If you're flushing twice, the fill valve or flush valve is worn. We replace internals to restore full flush power.
Water at the base
Water pooling at the toilet base? We dye-test to tell you if it's the wax seal (fixable) or a cracked pan (replace).
How We Fix It
Diagnosis
We identify the leak type first - fill, flapper or flush valve - with a dye test instead of a guess.
Quote
Parts and labour are priced before the tank is opened; you approve the repair, not an open-ended hour.
Repair
The failed part is replaced to spec, the seat reseated and the water level set to the mark.
Verify
We run repeated flushes, watch the refill settle and check the base seal dry before we leave.
"Toilet repairs end with a dye test and a flush cycle under load — silent means silent before we call the job done."
