Pump head

I have a nice floor pump that works for shraeder but the presta connection is bad. Is there a way to add a new pump head and not replace whole pump? And would I be able then to get a decent airtight seal? Thanks,

what brand is it? I had a park tool pump head go bad- one call to customer service and they sent a new one right away for free.
maybe a call to the manufacturer or the shop where you bought it.

I used the Topeak retrofit kit and have been happy with it for almost 10 years. Almost any brand would work though.
