Just moved in, and the bathroom sink is a bit annoying - the tap on the sink isn't very long - i.e., it doesn't stick out very far into the sink. And because of the shape of the sink (flat back), it's hard to properly get your hands right underneath the stream, if it's on at a sort of normal low amount - and when you try, the water ends up splashing up and pooling around the base of the tap. Or you can turn the tap on higher power, and then it comes out more in the middle of the basin, but at that pressure it's more likely to splash everywhere.
So as I can't replace the tap itself yet, I was thinking maybe there was some sort of piece that I could put on the end that would just direct the spray outwards a bit. I don't really see anything obvious to screw it on to, though. The end of the tap has a little bit that looks slightly separate (a few mm thick), but I don't know if a plumber could actually unscrew it somehow (I can't). There's a flow regulator or something in that.
Does that sort of piece/device/thing exist? Any other ideas other than replacing it one day?
