    vibrating pipes in the bathroom
    hi,

    whenever we finish using the shower, or the taps in the sink/bathtub, for a good few minutes all the pipes/taps etc vibrate, sometimes quite noticeably, and sometimes randomly, regardless of whether the taps have been used.

    any ideas what the problem might be?

    cheers
