Hi, If you look inside your toilet's tank, you may see one of two types of valves. The older style is a float on a long arm that rises as the water fills the tank. As it does so, it slowly shuts off the water, this slow method may cause the high-pitched squeal you hear. The other method of shutting off the water is newer and is a small, upright tower with a float that moves up and down the tower. Again, as the float rises it shuts off the water. Which ever type of valve you have, you may have to replace it to correct the problem. If you do not wish, or feel comfortable doing this yourself, a plumber or even a decent handyman should be able to do the job for you.
