Replacing a shower valve stops leaks and restores temperature control. Here is what Erie homeowners can expect to pay.
The parts
A replacement cartridge is inexpensive; a full valve body costs more, especially for premium brands.
The labor
A cartridge swap is quick. A full valve replacement, which may require opening the wall, adds labor.
The access factor
If the valve can be reached through an access panel, the job is cheaper than cutting tile.
The range
Most jobs in Erie run from a couple hundred dollars for a cartridge to several hundred for a full replacement.
