having nice hot shower then water turns cold for couple mins then hot again, cycle continues

answers please
 
What you need to establish is whether the boiler is cutting out when this happens. Run your shower as you normally would, but then go to your boiler and monitor how it functions. If the boiler cuts out then it's an issue within your boiler. If the boiler runs continually then the fault will be within the shower control.
