How to stop water trickling into the toilet bowl
There's a constant trickle of water going into the toilet bowl, you can hear it and see it. The cistern fills normally though. Is this a flapper issue?
Expert Trade Answers
"Hi you might need to replace filing valve that’s faulty if it’s still filled and still dribbling photo would be nice to see to understand the issue."

"Rather the fill valve washer is perished causing water to constantly run through the the overflow into the toilet, or the flush valve washer is perished allowing water to pass into the toilet"
