Toilet cistern coming away from the wall
The cistern on our wall hung toilet has started to pull away from the wall slightly. You can see a small gap forming. Is this urgent and who fixes it?
Expert Trade Answers
"برای جواب MyJobQuote کوتاه و حرفهای بنویس:
Hi, this can happen if the frame fixings or concealed cistern support has become loose. I’d recommend getting it checked sooner rather than later, especially if the gap is increasing or the toilet moves when used. A plumber/bathroom fitter can normally inspect and secure it. Happy to help if needed."

"Check to see if it is dangerous- could it fall on someone? Is there any water leaks coming out of it? If neither of these are the case then just leave it for now. You can call a plumber eventually when you have the money. He or she will make sure that it is firmly fixed the wall or replace the toilet if necessary."
