A cracked or stripped faucet handle is a simple swap. Here is the Peabody guide.
The handle
Handles crack or the internal splines strip, so the handle spins without turning the valve.
The fix
Remove the set screw or cap, pull the old handle, and seat the new one.
The match
Match the handle to the faucet brand and model.
The call
A quick fix for a daily annoyance. Call 888-217-3585 and Peabody Plumbing Pros will match you with a Peabody pro.
