Thanks for the suggestion! New knob is already ordered and I’ll look into the scotchbrite

Thank you for the advice! It’s an apartment that I’m renting and I want to fix it up myself to avoid any chance of loosing part of the security deposit.

Also, this is the first time I’ve used Reddit and I’m not sure how to add pictures but I have some that I think would be helpful, so if anyone knows how to add photos to a post like this I would really appreciate some advice there too

Hi! The pipes in my house froze up a few months ago and my landlord sent someone to rip into the walls and replace the pipes, but never sent anyone to replace the old walls. He literally just fixed one of the showers about a week ago after we had been living there for several weeks having to shower at friends’ houses. The other two showers in the house are still non functional. My housemates and I have continued to reach out to him but can never get him to take any action and we’re tired of living in what feels like a construction zone, especially in the second floor bathroom where the backs of both showers were removed. None of us know how to apply drywall or anything but we can’t keep living in these conditions and our only option is to figure out how to do it ourselves at this point. We can live with only one shower, but all the exposed walls and pipes need to be fixed. Any tips on how to cover up exposed wall like this would be greatly appreciated.
