Broken Mainline Water Valve

Impossible to tell without looking at your pipes.

Likely the branch that valve is on connected to has only one valve, and turning it off means no water for anyone on that branch

or he's lying and putting off the work.. wouldn't surprise me

I just want to know if there is a way to fix this mainline water valve for my specific unit without turning off the water for the entire building. Because this valve in question is the one that specifically turns off and on the water for my unit and the handle snapped off.

If you could get it to shut off with pliers , another valve could be put in after it.

Can't see it very well in pic, but is there a reason you can't just replace the handle?

>since the plumbers don't want to do it because the main water shut off is fucked or something.

I doubt you have plumbers that don't want to get paid. They just don't want to pay. Turn off the water at the street. Replace main valve, replace your valve.

The thread for the gate is broken apparently so that's why the plumber told me that HOA had to shut off the water for the entire building so they could replace the broken gate valve

this

if they try to give you crap about it, make up a story about a water leak that could lead to a potential mold problem

What do you mean? I looked at the commercial freezing kits and they say they stop water for about 30 minutes

Get a lawyer, sue your HOA, ???, profit.
