    Leaking Mono Mixer tap

    I have a Wilkes Siranne Mono Mixer tap on my bathroom sink. It's from about 2013 and has two rectangular knobs. The hot side is leaking and it likes to sing quite a bit. I've removed the screw, but cannot get the handle off. Is it worth attempting a replacement of the cartridge, or just go for a new tap? Thanks
