Scratching heads a little on this one. Not sure the two issues we’ve experienced are related but posting all info here in case it’s relevant.
Had a en-suite bathroom put in as part of an extension in 2016. Sink, shower and loo.
About 6 months ago the cold tap feed on the sink slowed to a trickle. Shower cold and loo were fine. I replaced the tap a few months agobut the issue persisted. Then about a month ago it sprang back into life.
A few days ago the cold on the shower died. Might get a dribble or nothing from it. It also appeared to run ok for a few seconds if it had been left off for a time and then die down to nothing.
It’s a Hans grohe raindance bar mixer shower in case that makes a difference. Had a plumber in who thought it was prob the filter on the cold in the shower - removed it all , gave it a good clean. Tested the flow without the shower attached (was ok apparently) then reinstalled and resealed it all back in.
Shower ran ok for a day (two 10 mins showers approx) and this morning has the cold had died again after 20 seconds or so. Tap to sink and loo seem fine.
Any thoughts on next steps or where the issue may be, possible solutions ? If it was a bit of debris in the sink branch originally sure would not have gone back against the flow and to the shower? Piping is under tile so reluctant to start pulling flooring up.
