Any Plumbers out there...I need some help!!!

don't know the ins and outs, but what type of shower do you have? it's the water pressure your getting that affects the shower pressure. there are electric showers with built in pumps or you can run aa seperate pump. is it in the bathroom> what's the water pressure like from the taps? if that's o.k. then you shouldn't need a pump. is your shower head all scaled up? you'll be amazed how much a difference descaling or replacing the shower head can make.

it a gravity feed shower from the hot and cold in the loft
but there is very little drop from top of the tanks and the shower head which means i get very little preasure
it is just about bearable but i want it better if i'm going the whole hog with the rest of the bath room
i've been told to lift the tanks but there is no room in the loft space
so i just wanna put a pump in to bring the pressure up but keep hearing mixed stories about them

that depends on what you buy/how much you spend. a butt naked jellybelly isn't a pleasant thought

Matt, i swear by aqualisa digital showers, fitted them in last house and this house.
Bit costly at £400+ but very very good quality + look the nuts.

I'm a tiler not a plumber but have worked for a bathroom firm, the pumps they have fitted are quite noisy even when put in the loft(they were good quality ones) and resulted in complaints from customers.

Not a Plumber but in construction. Aqualisa or Mira are good makes and guess they start at £150 upwards depending on budget. dont mess around with a seperate pump in the loft, just get a electric shower unit. Maintenance isnt really an issue, really simple things maybe ask advice if suitable to hard or soft water area (depending on what you have).
