Repairing Pinhole Leaks in Copper Pipes
| Team info | |
| Description | After you have recognized a pinhole leak in your copper pipe, and it is above the piece it's not that difficult to correct. Isolate the leak, and turn the water off to the house, either at the valve where it comes in or at the water meter by the street.If you turn it off at the house then open the hose bib that is often located just above the water shut off. This will releive any force from the internal pipes, and the flow must stop leaking. The next thing you will need is to obtain the pieces to avoid the leak. If it is a pinhole leak all that's necessary is a small piece of soft plastic, and a pipe clamp. Try to look for a hold that's close to the size of the pipe. It is possible to usually find these at the local hard-ware or auto parts store. Make sure the rubber is soft so it can close the flow when you tighten the hold. Don't over tighten the clamp or you may have a bigger leak and break the pipe. Believe me I have done this.

Place the plastic on the opening and secure the clamp. When you think you've it tight enough change the water straight back on and examine the leak. If it's stopped dripping then you're done and you are now a plumber. If not gradually tighten the clamp before leak stops. Remember do NOT over tighten the clamp.
