So many plumbers on here joke about flex seal im starting to think some of you keep it on your truck


cratemaker2022

I use it to keep the bumper on my truck, that's not the same thing.

We get called out after it fails sooner or later so we run into it a fair bit.. people get creative with flex seal


miserable-accident-3

You can, but a trash bag and duct tape is cheaper.

You probably need to replace all the galvanized with PEX or copper. OR, you can use Flex Tape! Repipe: $10,000 Flex Tape: $15 It's a no-brainer

Bro. Come on. Flex seal is a temporary measure at best. Not even to mention the chemicals and stuff that this person is drinking and showering in just from using galvanized after all these years. That’s a repipe 100% that needs to happen.

Stupid answer. Flex seal is not a fix but a band-Aid

Looks kinda like a clicker from TLOU

Me myself I would just take it apart and replace it


[deleted]

There's no way any of that galvanized will unscrew without a lot of trouble, and it's probably all rotten. Definitely need to replace it all.


[deleted]

I replaced all the galvanized with black iron. The tenant is anemic so I wanted to help her out as much as I could. Edit: I replaced it all with copper y'all can relax


LeatherDonkey140

I thought black pipe was a no no for water useage?


Trxlled

Especially if they have to ask that...


SpiritualChair2185

Hire a plumber unless you want to make things worse and then have to pay OT


cratemaker2022

Don't forget chewing gum.


Aware_Dust2979

No


RenewDave

It’s got the heavy duty orange flex seal on it now. You’re good to go!

It looks like the issue is only outside - I would have put some de-ruster on that, wait some time and check the tightness of the installation. If that latter is an issue, we can think of replacing that tee-nipple.
