Can't you just replace the valve stem (kit), after you turn off the
water meter?


I suppose I can, but I really wanted a ball valve...


I understand that. If you start cutting pipes, wrenches, etc.. You
may have future leaks in the future. A stem kit would an easy fix for
the valve IMO.

How much does a pipe fitter cost...?
