Can I Fix a Leaking Pipe Joint Without Replacing It Myself?
You can sometimes stop a small drip at a pipe joint without replacing it, but it’s a temporary fix. Turn off water, relieve pressure, and dry the area. For minor weeps, wrap self-fusing silicone tape or apply epoxy putty around the joint. For a pinhole, pad with rubber and a hose clamp. If the joint moves, or the leak is in a wall, ceiling, or slab, call us for non-invasive leak detection and same-day repair in Toms River.
