Hi
Anyone know of a pull out kitchen tap that has decent pressure?

I have had low pressure from this tap for a number of years and it's not helped with the two 10mm tails that must reduce even further.
Hoping something is around that I can use 15mm full bore tails and isolating valves but all needs to be fed down a 35mm - 40mm hole in the worktop.
 
No its just not possible.

The amount of hoses needed through a 35mm hole just won't allow you to get anything bigger than 12mm and even then I've only ever seen 10mm for that design. Even then the restrictions in the tap are probably even smaller

If you're on gravity hot water then you're only option is to have 2 taps: A low pressure tap for hot and cold and then a cold sprayer

How to identify dripping tap.
Our kitchen mixer tap has started dripping. Like so much of the plumbing in our almost new build bungalow, it is lacking! The plumber didn't install any isolating cocks in the H&C feed to the tap so how can I identify which of the valves is passing? Shut the whole H&C water system down?

Hole in copper pipe, solder under floor, T coupling & protection
I was stupid enough not to check the position of the pipes under the tiles when installing a toilet and drilled right through the center of a 16 mm copper water pipe. I exposed the pipe by removing a ~30cm section of the plastic sleeve and a ~10 cm section of the pipe around the hole. Several...
