How Can I Seal a Leaking Pipe Without Replacing It?
You can temporarily seal a small pipe leak without replacing it by using a pipe repair clamp or epoxy putty after shutting off the water and drying the pipe. These are stopgap fixes; a technician can confirm if a permanent repair or repipe is needed. Summers handles pipe repairs of any size, including main lines, drains, slab leaks, and frozen pipes. We offer 24/7 emergency service in Dayton and use modern, minimally invasive methods when possible. Our trucks come fully stocked for fast service.
- Shut off the water supply.
- Open a nearby faucet to relieve pressure.
- Dry and clean the pipe surface.
- Apply epoxy putty or install a repair clamp per instructions.
- Call for a permanent fix if leaking continues.
