hi,

We have a constant sound of the water tank in the loft refilling and then noticed water coming out of the overflow pipe onto the patio, I had to turn the water off overnight to stop this, does anyone know what this could be caused by? :(
 
Well would say the washer has gone on your ball valve in the tank Melanie,new washer or ball valve should sort you out,should not be a major expence,if you can not diy ask about if any of your friends know a plumber,always best going the word of mouth route :)
 
Thanks for the advice Puddle, im not sure wether to attempt it myself, even though id like to try, I dont want to make it worse, but at least I know what it could be :)
