I have a small leak at a glued connection of two pvc plumbing pipes
that are located horizontally under my kitchen sink. I would like to
stop the leak without having to take apart the pipes,etc,etc.
Any suggestions(plumbers goop,etc) on how to successfully do this
would be most appreciated.
Plumbing though, does mean a lot of things, such as drains and supply
lines with pressure.
You may get away with some sealer on a drain, but not on a supply
Sometimes you just have to do the job right. Anything less may result
in a worse leak that usually happens when you are away for the
weekend.
Agreed, ONLY on drain. I've tossed 100% silicone on tiny ones absolutely
making sure the drain did not get used overnight. Then, on black pipe, a
dab of roofing cement has worked :-) This is cheating with a hack twist.
