Evening all, me again. I'm rather confused by the fact that when I run a bath at night a very loud, fast but irregular "clicking" sort of noise (the best way I can describe it) occurs from behind the controls, and is so loud that it can clearly be heard even from downstairs, but when someone else runs the bath during the daytime you can't hear it. By controls I mean what seems to be a fairly standard plate with top and bottom quarter-turn taps for the shower and bath respectively and a "capstan"-type wheel in between them for controlling the temperature, and plumbing presumably behind, in the wall. Bath is a walk-in one, with one of those flattened cylindrical spouts (don't know what the technical term is), although I suspect that's not relevant.
I haven't been able to take a look behind the plate because I can't get the cap on the top tap unscrewed - I presume it would just be a case of unscrew the taps and the capstan and lever the plate off? - so I can't be certain what's going on behind, although I have my suspicions. Are these symptoms sounding familiar to anyone, please?
