No pressue on hot water in bathroom

I've had to take out the wash basin in the bathroom as the kids have craked it and it's leaking all over.
I'm having a new bathroom fitted anyway but that won't be for a few weeks.
I've taken out the sink and capped off the pipes but now I've lost pressure to the hot water in the bath.
Any advice appreciated.
(Possibly airlocked?)

Hi
If you have a bath mixer put your hand over the spout and turn on the hot then the cold. You might hear some bubbling in the pipework. Leave it on for 30seconds to 1min. Turn off the cold then let go of the spout and see what happens. If you have two separate taps then do the same thing with one of those push on shower attachments.Extreme way is to connect mains to hot in the kitchen Without being there I couldn't say what the best way of doing that would be.
