A door bell works when the electrical circuit is complete. It doesn't work when there is no complete circuit. If it is just buzzing then there must be some electrical circuit, even though no-one is pressing the button.

Somewhere there is a faulty connection, one that is making a slight contact, but insufficient to make the bell ring properly. Or maybe the 'ding/dong' unit is faulty.

There are several things that could be done:

# Rewire the whole thing. # Check the bell push, perhaps it is corroded or otherwise faulty. # Get an entirely new bell system. # Check all the wires, especially all connections. # Get someone who knows about electrical bells/circuits to check it for you. # If you rent the property and the bell is not yours but belongs to the landlord, maybe you could/should tell the landlord.
