Constant noise in my house like a humming and vibration noise
I have a noise that is constant in my house. Almost like a humming, vibrating noise. I have tried turning the boiler off and the fridge freezer and even turned all the electric off but the noise is still there and I haven't a clue where its coming from. Not sure if I'd need am electrician for this or a heating engineer I just want the noise found and sorted but not sure what trade is best. Hope I can get some help

Are there any wind turbines close bye . Do you have a water pump to increase your water pressure . Are there any old strip lights in the house"

"A humming noise can come from air in your heating system, when the boiler is running the pump will be under pressure to work causing it to hum ."

"From a plumbing point of view. It could be the central heating pump, the heating pump runs for a while after the heating is turned off to disperse the heat..
There is also a noise called " water hammer" that can be quite loud , from pipe work not clipped properly ..that is normally from the mains pipe either filling a tank in the loft, or toilet cistern .
Hope this helps"
