    A bunch of junk likely broke loose and got caught in the hot inlet of the bathroom fixture. Shut down the main, pull the stem or cartridge,clean it, cover valve hole with towel open/close main to blow out debris, reinstall, done

    Bob's correct! Some minerals built up in the pipe walls has broke loose and is now clogging the inlet ports of the faucet cartridges. What faucets are affected and what brand are they? Let me know, Tom
