OK so this may stupid question, but...

I removed radiator so we could decorate/renovate and i don't know when / if it will be connected but we do not have hot water..

We have a combi boiler !

Is it because i have interrupted the flow there's no hot water ?

It may be a couple of weeks before i reconnect the radiator...do i have to wait till then before hot water is resumed ??

Most Combi Boilers have a small pressure gauge on the front or just underneath the appliance. Does yours?

If the needle is pointing below say, 0.5 bar, or is pointing into a 'red zone', look in the user instructions under the section 'restoring correct pressure' or similar.

(NB this is generic advice, some boilers have a digital gauge and need buttons pushed to activate display)

Oh, yeah, is the electric supply still on at the boiler?
 
yeah sounds like a pressure issue. You might need the system topping up again.

If the system needs 'topping up' to bring it to pressure then there should be a 'filling loop' ( do an image search on the web) that is usually left connected, under the boiler , it connects the cold water to the heating circuit via a valve and stop tap, open this up you will hear water entering and the pressure should rise. It should fill quickly. Good luck.
