Dale and Garreth are often asked what the do when they are not on the road……. WELL…… not normally this, but after the utility service gave every excuse to stop a leak, there was no other choice than to get stuck in ourselves.
From cutting the pipe to re-sealing it took 3 1/2 minutes. Not bad going considering we had 3 attempts with problems along the way.
I would strongly advise not to do this in a lived in and functioning house.
Garreth has been in building for 24 years, and only had to do this 3 times in his life. Each time has been a struggle but achieved.
Having no working service tap outside the property is always a big problem. Check yours and get it fixed if it’s not working.
