I recently moved into a 1920's bungalow. The upstairs bathroom has a tub (2 handles) but no shower. It takes lots of force to turn either knob on and even more force to get the water to shut off completely. The handles look much newer than the drain plate and tub drain switch so my guess is that she just replaced the handles before she sold us the house. Do you all think the entire fixtures need to be replaced or can any part of the fixture be lubricated? I looked at HD and saw replacement kits for Price Pfister, or Moen fixtures but none for Kohler. How do I determine what needs to be replaced? I've done basic faucet replacements and drain repairs but have never soldered coppper pipe.
Thanks for your help!
