: : I replaced the ball and pipe system in the back tank of the toilet, now every time you flush a loud banging and rattling noise comes from the pipes in the basement : Steve, : The timing of the loud banging could be very telling. Problems that can occur would be things like: : Loose washers which could be at the new fill valve, or the shutoff at the wall. Perhaps the shutoff for the toilet is not open enough. : If there is air in the pipes, opening up the faucets in the home would quickly fix that. : A good toilet fix-it link is: : http://www.toiletology.com : Regards, : Terry
