Hey Kirstie,

One handle or two knobs on your tub valve? What's the name of your valve? How old? Any other problems with the cold water? My hunch is that you have a two or three knob valve and the washer broke off from the cold water stem assembly and is now blocking the valves seat. Does that sound right to you? Tom
