Mixer tap on bath/shower - no cold water

I have no cold water running from the mixer tap on my bath (shower attached). Please advise what the cause of this might be and what I should do to rectify this - I would prefer not to call out my plumber if necessary.

Ventilation & temperature in bathroom

I have a bathroom in which I've been trying to tackle the build up of condensation. It has a shower over the bath, a 4" humidistat extractor fan, a small electric heater on the wall, which I do use whilst taking a shower. There is no window and the walls are cold to the touch before taking a sh...

Previously damp plasterboard in condensated bathroom

How is it best to decorate over a plasterboard wall which has had damp due to condensation and is now dry, except when a shower is taken when the walls do get condensated? The plasterboard is bumpy in one patch where the damp was.

The fan is connected to ducting which leads to an outside vent on the exterior of the building, which should have the same effect as an airbrick. The mould is only around one corner of the bathroom ceiling, elsewhere is mould free. The condensation/damp is around the same wall, elsewhere in the bath...

Damp/condensation in bathroom

I have a bathroom without a window and black mould growing in only one corner of this around the ceiling. The plasterboard walls simply do not dry off after showering, despite a fan and heater. Even if I don't take a shower, the walls simply do not dry out, it makes no difference. I have recently ha...
