Pipe Leaks

[ladyspur]

Do you usually fix them yourselves or call a plumber?

ah, just wrap some duct tape around it, problem solved


seriously though, what pipe is leaking, sink, toilet? i'd turn off the water supply to that source, unscrew the pipe and see if it's just worn down or something. try buying a replacement pipe at home depot and if that doesn't fix it, call a plumber

What if I dont have duct tape around, will gum work?

Are you on call 24-7? Do you charge by the hour?

Now, now. You didn't expect to have a pipe-laying thread without Sir EJ making an appearance, did you?

Get out of this thread Boo.

[PHANTOM21]

speaking of leaky pipes...does anyone know how to get stains out?

[Malice]

teflon tape or plumbers dope works great. Try unscrewing the leaky pipe and apply either to the threads of the pipe. I had the same problem and that took care of it. And dont be afraid to put a little elbow grease into it when you retighten it either, little lady...lol.
