What it usually is
Pressure drops come from clogged aerators, partly closed valves, a failing pressure regulator or a hidden leak. One weak fixture points to that fixture; every fixture weak points to the supply.
What to do first
Check whether one fixture or all of them are weak, and unscrew the aerator on the faucet to look for grit.

The West End and Proctor area of Tacoma has older homes, a walkable business district and streets lined with mature trees. Mature trees and older sewer lines go together, and roots are a common reason a drain in an older West End home keeps coming back.
