Problem

The homeowner reported:

Ensuite toilet – constantly filling, wasting water.
Main toilet – dripping after use, though still flushing.
General plumbing concerns – client requested a maintenance check across both toilets.

The old toilets were no longer reliable and upgrading them offered the best long-term solution.

Assessment

Brayden attended site and carried out a detailed inspection. After reviewing options with the client, four possible solutions were presented – ranging from valve replacements through to complete suite replacements.

The client opted for Option 4: replacing both units with brand new close-coupled toilet suites for maximum reliability and water efficiency.

What We Did

Removal of old toilets – Carefully disconnected and removed both existing toilet suites.
Supply & installation of new Caroma Luna suites – Two brand new Caroma Luna close-coupled toilet suites were installed.
Sealing & testing – Each unit was properly sealed, connected to existing waste and water lines, and tested for flawless function.
Compliance check – Installations were carried out to full Australian Standards for plumbing and drainage.
Client handover – Brayden demonstrated both new toilets to the homeowner, ensuring satisfaction before leaving site.

Materials & Standards

Caroma Luna Close-Coupled Toilet Suites – high-quality units, Australian-made, WELS-rated for water efficiency.
All connections included new isolation valves, flexible hose connectors, and seals.
Work completed to AS/NZS 3500 standards, ensuring compliance and long-term reliability.

Results

The outcome was two sleek, modern toilet suites that improved both the look and functionality of the bathrooms.

The client’s 5-star review highlights Brayden’s professional service:

“Quick and efficient service!” – Nicholls homeowner

By opting for full replacement, the client now enjoys reliable, water-saving fixtures with manufacturer warranties for peace of mind.

Constant filling or dripping often means valves are worn and wasting water.
