it may be silly, but is the hot water turned on? look under your bath at the pipe. on it you should see a silver connector called an isolation valve(go online to any plumbing store to see what it looks like) if the screw on it is not in line with the pipework turn it till it is. open the tap slowly to release the pressure and it should be just fine.
