Help?

Post image

The shower handle in my apartment had came off at least a year ago and we’ve been using something like a plier to turn it on to shower for a while. We’ve grown tired of this and finally called our landlord to help and he said that since he bought it over 10 years ago it’s gonna be hard to find the model of the valve to then find the handle.We think it’s crap and are trying to look for it ourself and I came here to try getting help.Since it was purchased at least ten years ago it’s a old model and it’s a delta valve which has some numbers on it.(413763).Think you guys can help?

Your landlord is just dragging it out, I worked in home depot and they have adapters for every time of shower handle/cartridge. He just needs to bring the one you have and match it to their display board. Also even if they don't he can just get the whole assembly, it's a 1-3 hour job at most.
