Tap manufacturer which has a medieval cross as its logo

Dear Folks

Have a customer who has a monobloc sinktap which needs its valve changing - does anyone know a manufacturer that has a medieval cross as its logo - ie cross with equi-distant arms and leaf shaped at the end?

Many thanks

Michael

Will a standard valve not fit the old handle?

Ceramic disk valve Will which you cant disassemble to attempt to maintain.

All this messing about why not just replace the tap ? could be some inport tap from one of the DIY outletts, has the customer no information on it ? how old is it ?

If you can't find the necessary part(s) after half an hour ringing round/searching online, advise the customer that it would be cheaper in the long run to change the whole tap with one from a main manufacturer. You can't charge enough for this type of job to cover the amount of time it may take to find the right part.

I'm with jts and jc on this one. Just change the tap, you could spend more time than it's worth.

You are right guys. Thats actually the way I have left it with the customer....but then I thought I would just check?? Did a search on Google and of course with you to no avail.

Was in my local plumbing shop (THL Hornsey High St, London) the other day looking to rig something up for a customer whose shower spout had lost its thread and didn't want a new shower. Plumber standing beside me recognised the make of shower from the shower spout!!

Thank you for your help.
