So…the metal arm in our toilet mechanism broke, and my husband replaced it, as well as the flapper and valve assembly since he was already working on the thing. Now, however, I have noticed a very small trickling sound from time to time…AND whenever the bathroom faucet is turned on and then off, the toilet tank sounds like it’s filling for about 5 or 6 seconds. That seems really odd, but my husband doesn’t seem concerned. Why would using a bathroom faucet cause a toilet tank to run? (And should I just give up on asking my husband about it and call a plumber…because I don’t pretend to be Ms. Fixit, nor do I want to be!) Thank you!
