A shared water main can be a problem because, often the stop tap in the street is rarely used. If your neighbours inside stop tap didn’t function when the plumber came to do work, the easiest option is for him to isolate properties feed by this main in the street. When reinstating the supply. It’s possible he either hasn’t opened the tap all the way or accumulated debris (lime scale or other impurities) lodged in the stop tap have made their way into your supply.
I would first make sure the main isolator is fully open and if so, isolate in the street again and begin working my way back, starting with your stop tap.
Incidentally, the pressure in your boiler (you say 1.4 bar) has absolutely nothing to do with your cold main. I’m sure someone can explain this to you if you need to understand. It’s not relevant in this instance though.
Bear in mind. It’s quite possibly not your neighbours or their plumbers fault. It could just have easily been a reverse situation had you needed plumbing work first.
Lets hope he’s a decent plumber and willing to help you out.
