Metal expanding, its the pipes.

Major job to re wrap them where they cross timber joists.

Hiya, thanks, no I'm sure it must be air in system or something it's only when the shower runs late at night surely the pipes'd be expanding at other times? I remember doing the whole hose to the shower dealy in our old house for a tank thing , cheers
