noise

Could someone please help me identify this noise? After I bought a second floor new build flat from Bewley Homes UK in 2022, there has intermittently been a snapping/clapping sound. The noise happens all year round. We have done the basic tests i.e run taps etc. It has been really hard to pin...

I wanted to reach out regarding a peculiar issue I've been experiencing with my heating system, and I'm seeking your expertise for guidance. I have a combi-boiler located downstairs, with the tank and motorized valves situated upstairs, specifically two zones and hot wanter. Recently, I've...

Hello, I have just moved in to a new flat this week and have a problem with noise coming from somewhere around the top of the boiler. It's a loud clicking/knocking sound that lasts about a minute, stops for 20-30 seconds and starts again. It seems to happen at night, starting in the evening...

I’ve just had a full central heating setup installed into my ‘older’ property. Mostly, everything feels fine (and warm). The one adverse symptom is that one (high capacity) radiator in the living room occasionally but regularly ‘tinkles’. I’ve repeatedly bled the system but this doesn’t alter...

Hello, everyone! I've been experiencing a problem that I initially thought was related to the fan at the back of my oven. However, I've now realized it's not that fan causing the issue. There's a noticeable "vibrating" noise when the oven is running, and it continues even after I've turned it...

Hi, I had a Vaillant ecofit pure 830 combi installed at the beginning of the year. Flushed and new protection kit fitted, etc. Came back from a 2 week holiday and now I'm getting a horrible loud pulsing noise that vibrates through the house. Happens with both ch and hw. Have attached a short vid...

Hi - first time poster. We have a wood fired boiler stove that heats a tank of water and four radiators. (Charnwood country 8b) The grundfos pump is controlled by a thermostat on the HW tank - when the water in the tank is warm enough the pump sends water to the rads. The system works well but...

Hi all, Moved into a property earlier this year and noticed a really strong vibrating sound coming from the cylinder room on the top floor. It happens for maybe 4-5 seconds in the morning when we're drawing hot water for the first time. Usually notice it when one of us has a shower in the...

Hello everyone, Hope you're all well! I've signed up to this forum to look for an advise. I've searched the interned to and fro but couldn't find anything similar. My partner and I live in an old mid-terrace house (build 1867) and since we moved in (a year ago) we've been having problems with...

Hello, We had a Greenstar 8000 life installed a few months ago and it’s worked flawlessly over the winter months, we’re very happy with it and have no complaints. Recently however, we’ve noticed a fairly loud humming noise coming from it periodically- maybe once per hour - when neither the hot...

Some while back I took the ensuite apart and removed the floor as it was poor quality chipboard, slightly sagging and definitely not straight! I then straightened up the joists and added a number of noggins where the joints will be for the plywood floor and said new floor is now laid, but not...

Worcester-Bosch Greenstar 30Si (G.C. No. 47 311 85 N.G.) Had a new Flow Unit fitted as previous had developed a pin hole leak. Also topped up system inhibitor. Then this noise has appeared. I'm going to checking if anything that is easily accessible is loose, but apart from that I could use...

Hi, Moved into a 4-bed Edwardian (1906) terraced house. For the past few weeks I've been hearing a mysterious squawking sound, in different rooms (kitchen, living room, upstairs back bedroom) at different times. Audio and separate video below. When they happen, they are precisely 31 seconds...

A year ago I got house completely re plumbed with new pipe and heating system. I got system boiler with unvented cylinder. Issue is when heating goes on and when goes of we can hear a very noise on some pipe like TRRRRRR DUDUDUDU ( not easy to explain) This was noted t the plumber last year and...

Hi. We have opened the ceiling in our living room which had previously the ceiling in 2.4m height, with a normal plasterboard and 10cm mineral/glass fibre mix. The outside noise was less, but still noticeable. We now want to use the full space of the pitched roof to create a vaulted ceiling...

Hi all, Recently moved into a flat that had a very old Urmet intercom handset. We replaced it with a Bell 801 handset and was all fine for a while, buzzer and everything worked. Recently developed an issue where a very loud feedback noise can be heard when the handset is picked up. Can still...

I recently realized I can hear water sloshing around when I put pressure (IE walking) over the flooring near where the front porch meets the main house. House was built in 2015, floor is concrete base with layer of plywood then Amtico (decent quality sealed flooring) glued on top. The house...

Make: Vauxhall Model: Astra j Engine size/Type: 1.7 CTDI ECOFLEX Year: 2011 Mileage: 98k Hello, My Astra makes a squealing noise on cold start ups. The sound comes from under the hood and dissipates after 5 minutes. I believe it could be linked to one of the belts. Just wondering if anyone...

Hi Can anyone suggest a diagnosis for the noise our Bosch Exxcel 1200 express is making? I'm thinking it must be either bearing or shock absorbers but not sure how to tell the difference. Drum seems to be rubbing and then spins off centre at certain speeds and starts knocking against the inside...

Hi guys, Hoping for some advice on how I can retro-soundproof my wood workshop. I say soundproof, but what I really mean is limit the sound to a level where my neighbours don't complain! As you can see on the images below, it's a very simple timber-frame shed. It was built to a cost and I...
