For the first problem, check your ballcocks in your toilet cistern and water tank.

You can adjust the ballcock via a star-headed screw (normally to rhs of cistern) adjusts height it cuts out the refil at .

 

From experience one thing to check re ceiling below bathroom . If you have overbath shower check seals around bath . Might look ok but when stand in bath can pull away from wall creating a gap - which then retracts when step out bath . Fill bath with water when resealing .

 

No callout charge for this Andy, this one's on me .
