Have a problem with a bath tap/ shower mxer. I want to try and repair the divertor as it is broken.

I cannot just put in a new one in as it will require the tiled bath panel removing and alot of extra work to boot.

Does anyone know what make and model this is?

One of three i believe- Ideal Standard, Armitage Shanks or qualcast ( who i think are / were part of armitage) and who are all now under american standard.
 
Theres a lesson here somewhere.................. Oh yes, always make sure you have access on a bath panel!😉

Agreed lol, Oh how i rub my hands together when i get these type of jobs, but i am trying to go down the cheapest route first as i dont fancy the tile work.

I looked up ideal standard and cannot see it there.

If you lift the diverter up, I think you should be able to get a spanner on it to remove it. TBH in these situations I just tell em the bath side has to come off. If you're careful you may get it off with minimal damage and can fit it back with magnetic catches after making tiling good and seal with a bead of silicone
 
My thanks go out to all that tried to help. Got the identification sorted in the end. The tap set was identified by ideal standard as the Jetline 624 model. The divertor is available to order and costs a whooping £80.
