Low pressure at your kitchen tap is a common issue and is often easy to trace. If other taps in your home are working normally, the problem is likely limited to that one fixture.
A frequent cause is a blocked aerator. Over time, small particles from pipework can collect inside the tap fitting and reduce water flow. This is more noticeable in homes with older plumbing systems across Scotland.
Another common issue is the isolation valve under the sink. If it is not fully open, it can limit the water supply without being immediately obvious.
In some cases, debris may have entered the system after plumbing work or general wear in older pipework. This can lead to reduced flow at individual taps.
If more than one tap is affected, it could point to a wider plumbing or heating system issue. During colder periods in Scotland, increased demand can sometimes highlight these problems.
If simple checks do not resolve the issue, professional advice can help identify the cause without unnecessary trial and error.
