You can temporarily repair a small hole in a water pipe without replacing it by first shutting off the water and then using a pipe repair clamp or epoxy putty approved for plumbing. Most pinhole leaks come from corrosion, and cleaning the pipe to bare metal or plastic before patching helps the fix hold. A clamp that spans well past the hole seals more reliably than wrap-only products, and epoxy putty sets best when you knead it fully and press it firmly into the defect. Bob Garrett Services also offers video inspection plus pipe repair and replacement, and we handle these issues for homeowners in the Westlake Corner area. Free estimates are available, and Service Club members receive 10% off non-warranty repairs. Turn the water back on slowly and plan a permanent repair to prevent future damage.
