Struggling with weak taps, an underperforming shower or inconsistent water flow? Our professional assessment helps identify what may be affecting the performance of your water system.
GET TO THE SOURCE
Poor water pressure and restricted flow can affect taps, showers, toilets and other bathroom products. The problem may relate to the incoming supply, internal pipework, valves, restrictions or the products themselves.
Our Water Pressure and Flow Check provides a professional assessment of the accessible system. We will complete the appropriate checks, explain our findings and recommend the most suitable next step.
WHEN TO ARRANGE A CHECK
Water may take longer than expected to fill a basin or bath, or the flow may feel noticeably weaker than it used to.
Your shower may struggle to provide a comfortable or consistent flow, particularly when other outlets are being used.
The water may perform normally at certain times before dropping unexpectedly or changing between different outlets.
Using one tap, shower or appliance may noticeably reduce the water available elsewhere in the property.
TESTING THE SYSTEM
The exact checks will depend on the symptoms you are experiencing and the type of plumbing system in your property.
Where appropriate and accessible, the visit may include:
Discussing when and where the problem occurs
Checking water flow at relevant taps and outlets
Comparing hot and cold water performance
Measuring available water pressure where appropriate
Checking accessible isolation valves and controls
Looking for visible leaks, restrictions or installation problems
Assessing performance when multiple outlets are used
Considering whether proposed bathroom products are suitable
Explaining the findings and recommended next steps
The appointment is non-invasive. Hidden or inaccessible pipework cannot be inspected without further investigation.
Check Before You Invest
Water pressure and flow can affect the performance of showers, taps and other bathroom products. A product that is not suitable for the existing system may not work as expected.
Completing an assessment before purchasing or installing new products can help you make a more informed decision. We can use the findings to recommend suitable options or identify plumbing improvements that may be required first.
FOLLOWING THE FLOW

Let us know which taps, showers or rooms are affected and whether the problem is constant or only happens at particular times.
02
A member of the J2 team will visit your property and carry out the appropriate accessible pressure, flow and visual checks.
03
We will talk you through what we have found and explain the possible cause of the problem in straightforward language.

If further investigation, repair work or an installation is recommended, we will explain the options and provide a separate quotation where required.

Water pressure is the force that moves water through the plumbing system. Water flow is the amount of water reaching an outlet over a particular period.
Possible causes include partially closed valves, restricted pipework, blockages, unsuitable fittings, supply limitations or problems within the existing plumbing system.
No. The fixed price covers the assessment and an explanation of our findings. Any repairs, replacement parts or alterations will be quoted separately.
Yes. The assessment can help determine whether your existing water pressure and flow are suitable for the type of shower you are considering.
No. The standard appointment only covers visible and accessible areas. We will explain if further invasive investigation is recommended.
