ok, our water supply comes via the neighbour, as in the supply from the
mains enters his premises (15mm copper pipe) and feeds his house then
follows on through the party wall into our house.
for a while now the pipes have been banging every time either of us turn
on and off the hot or cold taps
I'm almost positive this started after he did some plumbing work and the
only reasons I can think of are 1. an air lock and 2. pressure is too
high... is that all ?

any suggestions on how we can stop the banging ?

thanks

I had this problem after having a bathroom refitted. Sorted it by turning
the stopcock down a bit so reducing the pressure. worth a try.


How's that work then?
