Stop the silent runner
A cistern that refills every few minutes is often a cheap internal part. The job is to see the mechanism, not to assume the pan has to go.

Toilet Repairs Gordon's Bay
Toilet repairs in Gordon's Bay for a cistern that will not stop filling, a pan that weeps at the floor, or a flush that does not clear. Quoted from the suite you have.
01
A toilet repair should stop the wasted water or the leak at the pan — without treating every cistern as a full suite replacement.
A cistern that refills every few minutes is wasting water through a fill valve or a pan seal, not through a hidden slab leak. You hear it at night in a Gordon's Bay house. The meter moves. The municipal bill creeps. That is usually a fill valve, a flapper or a cracked cistern fitting. A pan that weeps at the floor, or a flush that will not carry, is a different repair and needs different photos. Send a picture of the cistern with the lid off if you can lift it safely, the base of the pan, and the isolation valve if there is one. Name the suburb. A close-coupled suite in a house and a concealed cistern in a Strand bathroom are not opened the same way. We will quote the parts the fitting actually needs. We will not invent a price for a new suite unless that is what you asked for.
What good work includes
Scope the complete requirement.
Check the base and the connector
Water at the floor can be a pan connector, a loose close-couple, or a supply that only weeps when the cistern fills. Those are three different opens.
Flush that does not carry
A weak flush is sometimes the cistern setup and sometimes a partial blockage downstream. We will not cable a drain until the cistern has been ruled in or out.
Good fit for

Gordon's Bay site considerations
Toilet repairs planned for the local site.
Gordon's Bay is the neighbouring Helderberg town on the Strand side of the basin. Plumbing work there is the same trade as in Somerset West: a roof geyser that has gone cold, a pipe that has split, a kitchen line that will not run, a cistern that wastes water overnight, a damp patch that will not dry. Jobs are considered from the property — what is leaking, how we get in, who will be at the door — and from whether the trip from Somerset West is sensible. If you are in Gordon's Bay, write Gordon's Bay. A lock-up, a holiday let and a house that is occupied all week are different access problems. They are not different towns. If it is a managed complex, say who holds the key and who approves the spend. If you are not sure the address sits in town, say Helderberg and describe the property.
The fitting is the brief
We will not invent a Gordon's Bay plumbing market. The brief is the burst, the geyser, the drain or the mixer, the access, and whether the visit from Somerset West is worthwhile. This is checked against the toilet repairs scope.
Say who is on site
Holiday lets and managed complexes need a name at the door. A photo of a wet tray is useless if nobody can let us onto the roof. This is checked against the toilet repairs scope.
