    Hello.
    We always had great pressure in the hot water tap in the kitchen. We built on side kitchen and pipes were extended to there. The sink and tape were also brought out there.
    We then got new taps and sink fir our kitchen. Cold tap is great, but hot tap is very poor.
    Anyone have an idea what's going on?

    Probably the tap is designed for a high pressure water system and maybe the pipe connections are quite narrow compared to the old tap.
    This is a common problem with new mixer taps.
    Try removing the strainer from the spout to see if it needs cleaning.
