Hello all,
I realised yesterday that I now have a massive leak coming from the where the pipe below the sink goes into the wall. Every time water is used (sink, washing machine, dishwasher), it leaks from the junction of the pipe / wall. You can see on the pictures that there is some gross rotten parts.
I think I need to unfold everything, let it dry, clean it, and apply some sort of waterproof coating.
I'm super keen to have your opinion on is that the right thing to do, and if so what coating to I need.
If it is not the right thing to do, what do I need to do, because it doesn't seem that anything is wrong with the pipe system itself.
Many thanks!
Mickael

I was stupid enough not to check the position of the pipes under the tiles when installing a toilet and drilled right through the center of a 16 mm copper water pipe. I exposed the pipe by removing a ~30cm section of the plastic sleeve and a ~10 cm section of the pipe around the hole. Several...

Hello all, I'm would like to extend an existing outside tap to another point in the garden. I'm about to pour a concrete patio and was hoping to run the water line underneath. There are existing drain (and who knows what) pipes running along the same wall so I'm nervous about digging too far...
