How do I stop a doorbell chime sounding when nobody pressed it?
Inspect for a stuck pushbutton, moisture in the button and smart-doorbell automation; have an electrician check any mains-fed chime.
Why this approach makes sense
Identify when the sound happens and isolate one possible source at a time. Pipe, motor and building noises can travel well beyond their point of origin.
Before you try it
Do not dismantle electrical or pressurised systems to diagnose an intermittent noise; record the pattern before seeking repairs.
