Hi guys,
My mum and dad recently bought a new bathroom suite and had a plumber fit it all. Now where we had the shower, both the hot and cold water came from the loft and were both gravity fed. Our plumber told my mum he is going to increase the pressure of water we are going to get by changing the pipes at the shower and she said that's fine. Now he capped off the cold water pipe coming form the loft to the shower and used a new cold water pipe coming from downstairs. Now with our new shower there is hardly any hot water pressure, and the cold water is really strong and completely overpowers the hot water and stops it from mixing when I try to! Is he in the wrong or do I have a duff shower? To make it even worse the area around behind the shower has been completely aquaboard backed, retiled and grouted, laid over the pipes. Am I going to have to rip it out and start again?
Many thanks!
