Hi,
I have recently bought my first house and am trying to sort this out myself but I have absolutely no idea where to go next, so thought I would try asking here on the off chance someone might be able to guide me in the right direction!
We moved into the house about 3 months ago and the outside tap has been working just fine.
I tried to use the tap at the weekend and got nothing from it, not even a few drips. I took the tap apart and could see some stagnant water in the body of the tap. I have since taken the tap completely off and still nothing.
As far as I can tell (and please bear with me as I am definitely NOT a plumber), the plumbing is connected to the same pipework as the dishwasher which works absolutely fine and gets water, so I am completely stumped as to what I can do to try and fix this.
I have uploaded some pictures here to try and help explain:
IMG-5683
IMG-5684
IMG-5685
IMG-5686
The 1st 3rd and 4th pictures show the plumbing to the outside tap, and the 2nd picture shows the dishwasher connected.
If there is ANY advice at all you can give it would be really appreciated.
