Help identifying a monobloc basin tap.

[Pudding]

Can anyone identify this basin monobloc tap? On the gold removable cap there is a logo that looks like a 3 pronged trident. I have just had a new combi boiler and the hot water pressure was so much more than before that it has blown the hot ring in the cartridge. I need to identify the tap in order to purchase the correct cartridge. Many thanks in advance.

Any idea how old it is? I would guess its a Triton from the symbol but have checked their website and can't find that tap, it may be worth giving them a call.

You don't beat about the bush do you kay-jay? Considering I am a pensioner on benefits and the boiler was supplied and installed under the government Warm Front scheme (thanks Dave) a replacement cartridge would be much more preferable to a new monobloc. I have to accept I cannot identify this tap so will have to get a new one.

Thanks for the suggestion redshaw but I did exactly that. The longest established in this area with owners who were about before Adam but no joy. Looks like a new monobloc.

i bet you could get a new mono tap for roughly same as what the manufacturer would ask for a replacement cartridge anyway. just make sure that whatever you buy is suitable for your supply ie high or low pressure.
