No water pressure in shower after turning water off and back on.
I had to replace a leaky shut off valve to my toilet and when I turned the water back on I have no pressure at the tub faucet. The faucet was open when I turned the water on and my daughter shut it off as soon as water started coming out. Any ideas about what the problem might be? Thanks in advance.

Sounds like you disturbed some minerals built up in the pipe walls. Since the tub valve was open the crud ended up blocking the inlet ports of the cartridge. Try this.
Shut the water off to the tub valve and open it up. Remove the cartridge and check and clean the inlet ports. Now turn the water back on to flush out the supplies and valve body. Reassemble and test. Better now? Cheers, Tom |

I just notched that when I turn on my facuts or even shower, that the first few seconds, the water kind of comes out very strong and then it weakens to a normal low pressure like flow.
