How do I fix a leaky PVC pipe near my garden?

Asked By T3chN1nj4 On

I've got a leaky pipe outside my house right by the garden hose, and it's gushing water like crazy! It looks like a small overflow pipe made of PVC, and there's a gray piece with a tiny hole in it. I can't share a picture right now, but I really need some tips on how to address this issue.

Definitely check if you can find the source of the leak. If it's a small pinhole, the tape could work, but if the pipe is damaged more seriously, I'd suggest replacing that section. You can also try a plumbing sealant if you need a quick fix. Good luck!

It sounds like you have a leaking overflow pipe, which is a common issue. If it's just a small hole, you might be able to use some PVC pipe repair tape to cover it temporarily. For a more permanent fix, you might want to cut out the damaged section and replace it with a new piece of PVC. Remember to turn off the water before working on it!
