Button, handle or cistern issue
The control feels loose, nothing happens, the cistern seems not to fill, or there is no normal flush action.

The toilet will not flush. What happens instead?
The missing flush may come with a loose button, an empty-sounding cistern or water that rises in the pan. That observation helps separate a mechanism fault from a blockage.
Make one useful distinction
Flush action or drainage?
Water will not clear
The pan water rises, drains slowly, remains high or other waste outlets show similar drainage symptoms.
View blocked toilet serviceWhat not to do
Do not keep flushing if the water level rises.
Repeated flushing can make an overflow more likely. Keep the toilet out of use and describe what the pan water and flush control actually do.
Send these observations
- Button, lever or sensor type
- Whether the control moves normally
- Water level before and after an attempt
- Any sound from the cistern
- Whether another toilet is available
