Just had this toilet installed. The cistern has not been fixed flush to the wall but instead the plumber has applied a thick layer of mastic seal. Apart from the fact it looks my 12 year old could hAve done better job, it looks tacky and messy. Have not paid the plumber has have told him I want it flush against the wall and job with neater finish. Any ideas as to why the job would end up looking like this.

Screws too long or screws not tightened fully or limited access in cistern to tighten screws or cistern design to fit proud of wall so you can get lid off or toilet pan fitted first limiting pipe available to get to flush outlet on cistern are obvious possibilities.


Whatever the reason, the sealant is shameful - are you sure it's not covering damage to the cistern ?!

My thoughts exactly. No he's not Polish or European. I have sent him a very polite text alerting him to the fact that I'm unhappy with his work and that if he wants paying he will need to rectify the work. Thanks to all of those who replied to my plight. Your suggestions have been very useful. Watch this space

    • Are there any Physical Activity (Bronze) approved providers near East Dulwich? Any ideas would be highly appreciated!      
    • The failure of the council year on year to prevent the corporate take-over of our precious public space is appalling. The consultation process this year is deliberately dumbed down and takes the form of a survey with a range of anodyne tick boxes designed to give the appearance of a 'consultation' without requiring any hard comment or information that could be used to oppose the survey.  It may be possible to get some answers from Gala themselves so I will try to do that and post here if anything forthcoming.
    • Avoid Acorn at all cost. Appalling service in every regard. We were involved in a sale and they repeatedly made procedural errors that delayed, and almost tanked, the sale. As buyers, they knew literally nothing about the property and were unable to answer even the most basic questions. Instead they simply lied rather than saying they didn’t know any information which caused issue in the long run. I hear only positive things about Truepenny’s. 
    • I was given an old clarinet recently. I play saxophone, but am struggling to make a good sound through the clarinet. Is there anyone who could give it a look over and see if there’s anything amiss or stuck? I’m not enough familiar with how it should be to know what to look for… I’m based in Camberwell. Thanks
