    Dab a piece of tissue around the bowel above the water line you may have a slow leak into the bowel. It can be hard to see it but the tissue will confirm its presence.

    Check the ballcock (or float valve) make sure that its set correctly, otherwise it may be overfilling.
    Either that or cistern is not sealing properly after a flush and there is a leak as above.
    turn off the water, flush the toilet and clean around the flange.

    Lift the lid on the cistern and look to see if it is filling. Do this an hour after it has been flushed.
