The low pressure hot water pipe to the kitchen tap has a weeping elbow
joint in an awkward position at the bottom of the kitchen unit. It is
a soldered joint and it takes about 2 days to fill a shallow drip
tray.

Is there any way to fix it without having to dismantle all the unit
around the sink?

Thanks

Wrap some plumbers mait around the joint? Only a temporary repair mind you.

Or maybe some sort of bandage ( like scrim) plastered with LSX
