Your water supply for bathroom sink taps should be in your hot press were cylinder. There should be a valve for the hot supply. Turn off let a hot tap run for a couple of minutes and the flow should ease. There should be another for the cold supply There too. If the baths on first floor all the supplies come from tge storage tank in attic space

I did wonder if when building places they add shut off valves under the sink so can service them.
