    Cap on cold water knob broken
    How do I get the cap on the cold water knob replaced? Half of the pieces underneath are broke off and the cap keeps popping off

    These little caps are not very strong and are very easy to break the little prongs off. I think the only way to find replacements are to find a plumbing company close that has a shop, stop by there and see if they have some old ones that they have saved from replacing the complete faucets. Otherwise you will have to go to someplace like Home Depot and find handles that will fit and exchange out the old handles.

Broken Shower Knob [ 2 Answers ]

I recently had a shower knob break and can not find a replacement knob that fits. I've been to Lowe's and Home Depot and the knobs I buy won't fit. It's not the knob itself that doesn't fit. It's the pipe that grabs the knob is too big and won't insert. The house is a 1970s house and I need to...
