        "text": "Generally, if only the handle of a shutoff valve is broken or stripped, it can be replaced without replacing the entire valve, provided the internal mechanism is still functional and leak-free. However, if the valve is old, corroded, or difficult to turn even with a new handle, it's advisable to replace the entire valve to prevent future issues like leaks or complete failure. This can be a decision factor based on the overall condition of the valve. CG Plumbing Solutions can assess this during a service call.",
