    No cold water...
    In our master bathroom, we have lots of hot water, but no water coming through the spigot. I've checked the lines and even though we had some frozen pipes a couple of weeks ago, the lines to the bathroom are not frozen.

    The water line to the bathroom feeds the sink and tub... the sink is working fine. I have noticed some sediment coming from the bathroom sink.

    I'm wondering if there is some sediment "stuck" in the cold water valve of the bathtub. I cannot access the line between the sink and tub without taking up the floor.

    Is there a way to safely remove the water valves in the tub to check it for sediment?
