Dirty hot and cold water?

I used my water this morning and it was perfectly fine, i have gone to run a bath and the water is slightly rusty in colour. This is also happening with the cold water as when i flush the loo it does the same thing.

Any ideas o whats causing it?

If your cold water is also coloured then it is probably your water supply that is 'faulty'. Check with your neighbours if they have the same issue - that will confirm if it is a supply issue. Then contact your water supply company. If they have been doing work in the area it can cause discolouration but not necessarily be a hazard.
