Water pressure

We have a double sink in the master bathroom. The right sink always had low pressure on cold side when we bought the house (new 8 years ago). The other day the hot also lost pressure as well. All the other valves in the bathroom are fine. (The left sink, shower and tub). I tried paying with the close valve underneath the sink. As try to close and re-open it and it was liking a little during the turn (nothing new always this way) and no change. Checked the screen and it is clean. What else could be? Thanks

Close the shutoff valves under the bathroom sink and open up the faucet. Check for trash build up in the cartridge inlet ports or the seats and then flush out the supply lines. Since you didn't furnish me with the brand name or the type of faucet,(one handle or two knobs) I can't get more specific.
Good luck, Tom
