If your faucet continues to make noise, check your washer seat. A clogged seat will cause a humming or whistling sound. Unless you have the know-how to take your sink apart, it’s best to hire a pro.

What Is Causing My Plumbing Pipes to Vibrate? Subject: Loose screw on faucet valve stem. Had the same problem.

The top of the fill valve comes off by turning it a quarter turn to the right.

How to Repair a Shower Valve When It's Making Noise You may hear a whistling sound -- the telltale symptom of a worn gasket or washer. Rattles from the pipes behind the shower, on the other hand, usually indicate pipes that haven't been properly clamped to the framing. A loud knock when you turn on the valve is a symptom of water hammer, which is caused by excessive pressure in the pipes. You can quiet some noises by servicing the valve, but to dampen others, you may need access to the pipes.

If the hissing noise did not stop when you turned off the valve, the leak is probably outside your home.
