Low water level in toilets - plumber needed


JLop

Recommended Posts

We have low water level in the bowls of both of our - upstairs and downstairs - toilets. There's a distinct smell emanating from them as well, which I take is a result of the low water level. Upstairs, it's always low; downstairs, it starts at normal level after a flush, but then sinks quite quickly. I've googled a few forums and sites and there seems to be about three possible reasons for this, none of which I or my partner is qualified to solve on our own. So I need a plumber to please give me an estimate of cost for the fixing of this problem, and then we'd like to get someone in quite soon as well. Thank you.

Highly recommend Stan (Gas Ray). He always comes as soon as possible, is extremely punctual, wears special covers on his shoes to protect your floor and has sorted out various boiler issues and leaks for us very quickly and very reasonably. He wouldn?t accept any money for coming out and re-sealing our bathroom taps. Very knowledgeable and thorough. He is certified to install various different boilers and will always quote you the best value for your needs. A good one! Tel 07479 465 706

    • Thanks! I'll find out in a few weeks when I get the results! It was one of those disconcerting things where a disembodied voice keeps booming  at you to breathe in and hold it, then breathe normally. Apart from that it was OK, all completely painless. I imagine there will be quite a few people going from ED, though I presume it covers the whole Southwark area 
    • Two men behind ‘senseless’ felling of Sycamore Gap tree jailed for more than four years Good to see these two jailed today for four years. There’s something deeply disturbing about people who destroy trees—any tree. Whether it’s a centuries-old landmark or a sapling in a quiet park, trees are living beings that offer beauty, shade, and life. The men who cut down the Sycamore Gap tree are a stark example of how far some people will go to lash out at something peaceful and meaningful. People who harm nature like this aren’t just destructive—they are often deeply unhappy. It takes a troubled mind to look at a tree and see something to ruin instead of something to protect.

    • What a brilliant idea. I hope it went OK, Sue. 
    • Yes, the appointments were scheduled for every ten minutes. And there is no waiting area at all this time  (sometimes for medical checks there they have a very small area inside with 3 or 4 seats). If you have come by public transport, you have to sit on the steps up to the van if you are early,  which isn't pleasant in very hot sun or pouring rain, or else wander round Asda (there's no cafe in Asda, despite it supposedly being a superstore). It's one in, one out. I don't know what happens if you are late, but I doubt they would hold up everybody who came after you in order to fit you in.  There was someone immediately before me and someone immediately after me. That's what I did in the end , so thank you for that.  I gritted my teeth and got some exercise. It wasn't as bad as I expected 😀 I did get a 37 from Nigel Road back to Goose Green on the return journey, though!
