Pardon my illeterate plumbing language.

In my new home, there is no hot water in my shower. There is no much pressure and water is only luke warm. Sometime it goes cold and then when I turn off and turn on it get luke warm. I have a combi boiler. I can get hot water every where else e.g. sinks & taps but only not in my shower in the bathroom.

There are two pipes (mixers) for hot and cold for my shower. I tried turning the valve on hot pipe to full, still water is only luke warm. When I tried valve on cold pipe to minimum there is no water at all from shower head. I do not know make and model of my shower. I tried looking for it on my shower but no luck.
Please help me because I am fed up arguing with my wife. Thanks

Would your shower valve look like this? (see image) Back to you, Tom
