Hi there
I find with taps that the cheaper ones are never good! I have used etaps (found on google) before and had great customer service etc.

bath taps
I've used Swirl taps from Screwfix on a number of buget installations with no problems - although reading the above advice makes me wonder if I've been lucky. I like the clear specs that screwfix has about it's taps (eg high/low presssure etc). I've always thought that the fitting of the tap was not trivial. Use a centraliser if in porcelain, and a good quality top hat washer and back nut (not flimsy plastic). Also, I use good quality flexible connectors with service valves, onto well secured pipes/tubing. Finally, ensure access in some way for a future date. In this way I could change-out a tap, tout-sweet. But I've never had to.
