We've been in the home since 2011 and recently noticed a drop in water pressure when using multiple faucets. Now if my wife is filling our bath tub I can barely get water out of our shower.
We had a plumber out who says he can't find an issue indoor and believes we have an exterior water leak. I don't believe we do and cancelled the "leak detection service", but that was during all of our health issues and probably should have just let him do his thing.
We have hard water and I don't use our softener. Could we just have progressive build up of solids in the lines causing flow restriction? The house is only 11 years old and has PEX for water lines. It's an issue with hot and cold. We have a water shut-off it seems in our basement that is fully open and I think one in the garage that is fully open. Inlet valve to hot water heater is wide open.
I'm at a loss. Should I have another plumber out to check lines themselves somehow or just go with the leak detection company first? I checked and ensured the valve at our meter was wide open. Neighbors are not having issues.
