Going on holiday tomorrow morning
and the soldered joint to a tap in the
downstairs toilet is leaking (one drip
every ten seconds). I've been trying
to get a plumber to come out before
I go, but can't get one for love nor
money(maybe they're all in
Teuksbury . Is there any tape
I can buy tomorrow morning, before
I go, to wrap around the joint and hold
it for two weeks till I get back?
Answer:
If the tap is mains fed, just turn the water off till you get back. Place a
container under the drip on top of several towels. If its fed from the tank
in the loft, turn the water off & drain the tank by running the cold taps in
the bathroom.
You could use Loctite Repair Express Power Putty, I guess the DIY sheds sell
it.
