so... what to do? is it easy to remedy?
Ha ha that sounds just like the plumber's round here....Shyte!!ha ha! no! - it was a plumber that came around and told me that firstly it was the heat exchanger that needed cleaning off - so he did that - I paid him, it didn't work - he came back and then said it was something else (which I cant remember exactly - but it cost me £80) then didn't work and finally he told me it was the DHW sensor all along and wanted £160 to change that - so I bought one and did it myself - but that hasn't worked either - it is annoying tbh - because it started happening when we had a new bath plumbed in upstairs.
Eh!!!but the shower was literally just moved from one wall to another - nothing was unplumbed for it.

So how did the water get from the old position to the new position. Magic, pixie dust, the Force.
The plumber will have disconnected and ran pipes to new position, he may have crossed these.
I know - and I really appreciate the help - I am just so fed up with people coming around to my house and not fixing it and then charging me for "work carried out". sorry. and thanks again.It may or may not be this. We are just trying to point you in this direction.
Fault only occurs after plumbing work done.
Could be a cold supply teed into a hot cooling down the water as you use it.
Could be the shower mixer valve passing back through as its piped hot to cold by mistake.
Sounds you have not done the simple test for crossed pipes!
I thought you would have been asked to do that at first.
