Hey folks,
I am hoping you can help me solve a bit of a mystery.
My water pressure drops on occasion, kitchen sink, bathroom sink and shower (electric) meaning the temperature fluctuates and it shuts off.
I haven't had any plumbing work done but my downstairs neighbours have, the water supply was cut off at the wee drain in our shared square I believe it was a new washing machine but that there were some plumbing issues from previous tenant (hence the water supply had to be turned off.
This may of no relevance but I need an idea of what could cause intermittent loss of pressure and if it's something I can rectify or if I need a plumber.
Thanks in advance.

What a polite lady...welcome to the forums Cat.....regards Turnpin:)

Ah not always Turnpin 🤪
I was swearing in the shower last night 🤬🤬🤬 when it shut down & alarmed, I ended up stood in the scud with shampoo in my hair, took a good 10 mins to get going again 🙄

I have used these forums in the past & always had excellent support & advice...I can do most DIY but plumbing & electrics give me the fear!

Cheers
