Can I Fix a Leaking Pipe Joint Without Replacing It Myself?
Yes, you can sometimes stop a small leak at a pipe joint without replacing it, but treat it as temporary. Shut off water, dry the joint, gently tighten the fitting, and apply plumber’s tape or an epoxy patch. If the leak persists, pressure stays low, or you see slab/foundation symptoms, professional repair or rerouting is likely needed. We offer non-invasive leak locating, spot repairs, epoxy options, flat-rate pricing, and a 2-year parts and labor warranty. For any gas line leak, do not DIY; leave and call us. Serving Nashua.
