Loss of pressure in one isolated hot water bathroom tap.

Anonymous user 23/02/2024 - 3.41 PM

After 10 years of absolutely no problems why have I suddenly lost pressure in one single hot water bathroom tap in my flat? The problem is isolated to one single tap. All other hot water taps in the flat, including in the hot-water tap in the sink-basin in the bathroom in question still work as before, with wonderful pressure. I've had two plumbers over so far and instead of trying to fix my problem they insisted on having a brand new tap unit fitted. The second Plumber succeeded in convincing me and now I am left with even lower pressure than ever before. Please help!!!

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

He should of changed the tap valve and he’s possibly fitted a high pressure tap to a low pressure system.
