In the last couple of weeks, my kitchen faucet has been cut in half with pressure, however, the sprayer still has full pressure when in use. It's a single head faucet. I don't even know where to begin to look.

Hi Sandy:
First place to look is at the aerator (see pic.) at the end of the spout.
You want to untwist this counterclockwise to remove it. May need a pair of pliers to get it started (be gentle, but firm grip).
Then turn water on (without aerator in place).
Then clean the aerator (remove parts/clean (remember order of pieces)).
Re-install the aerator and should be all set.
If there is water at good pressure, but not restored after cleaning the aerator, may need to replace it (available at home supply store).
Let me know how you make out... Mark
