Over the summer we had our floors redone, and the super removed the radiators for us so we could repair some of the boards under the radiators. We’re ready to put them back on, but one of the valves is broken and needs to be replaced.

The super said we should hire a plumber, but the one recommended to me gave me what seemed like an outrageous quote. I’m tempted to do it myself, but the consequences of doing it wrong make me think twice.

So my question is: What should I reasonably be expected to pay for a new valve to be installed, and can anyone recommend a good plumber to do it? Thanks!
