How Can I Seal a Leaking Pipe Without Replacing It?

You can make a temporary seal by shutting off water, drying the pipe, and using a repair clamp, epoxy putty, or self-fusing silicone tape. These are stopgaps, not permanent fixes. Bob Garrett Services repairs burst pipes and whole-house plumbing in Roanoke and Cave Spring, VA, with quick response noted by customers.

  • Close the main valve.
  • Clean and dry area.
  • Apply clamp/putty/tape; test.
