Kitchen Sinks and Taps

UK Plumbers. Is there a way to convert two kitchen taps to one single mixer tap without changing the sink?

I know nothing about plumbing. Is it fairly easy (and possible) to change two individual kitchen taps (hot and cold) to one single mixed tap so that I can get warm water, without changing the whole kitchen sink?
Thanks.

Yes,the holes for the mixer will be the same as for the old taps.Only thing is the old taps might be difficult to get off.If you buy a basin wrench it makes it easier to get at the nuts holding the tap connectors to the taps.Don`t forget the turn off

ie; could a blonde female thats quite good at DIY do it. i gather i need to turn the water off and run the taps till they empty, is it then a case of taking the old taps off with a spanner and wrench and putting new ones on?
Jane N - have you seen

yes you can do it . go for it girl. when you flood the kitchen don't come running to me. lol
actually you could do it as you describe. get under the sink and undo the connectors to the taps first ( supply pipes) then the taps require undoing by

have i got too many mixer taps. shower is a power shower suitable for a combi boiler. bathroom sink tap has very high pressure could do with being less, bathtap less presure and takes ages to fill the bath kitchen sink tap is a trickle. Plumber who installed

The water pressure is the same at all of them, you can adjust the flow by adjusting the valve under the sink, the shower should have a Water saver head, bath tub should have plenty of water flow- the valve is probably clogged up, sometimes excess solder
