Waste of money or not?

Or is it just a waste of money?

so how do identify which one it is - without trial and error?

Ok - so I have tried that - put them on the shower and the bath - but no change. still the same problem. when I isolate the cold feed to the boiler and turn on the hot - there is still cold water coming out of the taps - does this just mean that I have to put them on ALL of the taps in the house?

Thank you Dan. I will give it a go at the weekend. How close to the taps do the valves need to be?

Hi. I have done that and the hot tap is still running.... How can i remedy this?

I know - and I really appreciate the help - I am just so fed up with people coming around to my house and not fixing it and then charging me for "work carried out". sorry. and thanks again.

Pixie dust I think. Ok - point taken. So it would seem that I, yet again, have to come along behind a "professional" tradesman and sort out poor (and expensive) "workmanship"

but the shower was literally just moved from one wall to another - nothing was unplumbed for it.

no - the shower was just moved - the bath and sink in the bathroom are new taps... they are the "waterfall" type.

ok... - but it is happening on all of the taps in the house - or will putting them on the bath supplies solve the rest of it as well? (thanks for your help btw - (y))

so... what to do? is it easy to remedy?

well if that was the case - surely the hot water would be coming through the cold tap?

Ok done that. Still no joy... Any ideas?

can I unblock it myself?
