Bathroom and en-suite cold tap pressure seems fine. The hot water has less pressure in both. Ex in en-suite is working fine but the bathroom is not. I got a new bathroom fitted 18 months ago so brand new toilet. How do I increase hot water pressure?

Will try this and will just need to identify the correct valves. thanks

Yes, less pressure than before. Also a toilet has stopped supplying water hopefully because the pressure is low

Tried this, what would you suggest next? Thanks

Yes, the pressure downstairs is quite powerful. More than it was before as I thought that would provide the best chance of pressure upstairs.

I recently switched off the mains water supply to fix a leaking sink tap. When I switched the water back on the water pressure downstairs is sufficient but upstairs is not. The shower has little pressure and now a toilet has no water, it’s shut off. I have a new boiler and water tank fitted in...

I can’t seem to remove this toilet seat, any ideas? It does not have any buttons nor when I open the lid and seat to 45 or 90 deg it doesn’t lift out Thanks

Looks like it’s the cold connection pipe work where it meets the mixer valve

Here are a couple of photos, one you can see where it is dripping. Is this 3/4?

Hi the shower thermostatic mixer valve is leaking on my Mira shower. What size of o ring is needed as a replacement The mixer tsp is not flush type and it looks like the pipe connection on the right side is leaking.

My electrical sockets tripped and my dishwasher is not functioning as it should, neither is my microwave but I’ll make a separate post for this. Dishwasher is Hotpoint LFT 228 A. Power is on and I can select any programme. It starts then No 3 flashes. There is also water in the bottom that...
