Default Sort out my friend's lousy shower

That may help, but alone but may not solve all the problems.

You really need mains (or similar) pressure feed on both hot and cold,
and then either a thermostatic shower or at least a pressure balanced one.

If there is a separate identifiable cold feed to the bath, then by all
means connect it to the cold main.

As to solving other problems - much depends on what the actual issues
are - there are a number of ways that combi fed showers can not perform
to expectations.
