Is this for practical or aesthetic reasons? If practical (i.e. washing hands without being scalded) you could consider an external thermostatic mixing valve. These are frequently used in care homes to limit the water temperature (preset to 40C or less) but are also great for ensuring that the basin hot tap is a usable hand washing facility without dropping the temperature on the bath taps (I like these hot for top ups) and kitchen tap (hot good for dishes). Not as cheap as a new mixer tap, but cheaper than changing the basin for a monobloc capable one.
