can you help me repair a lead pipe which has blown a hole. Is there a bandage or a kit available to achieve this?

regards,

william

could use two lead loc's and a lengh of copper

if one bit has gone tho the rest wont be far behind

best bet is to replace it

Many thanks kevplumb & masona. I will try leas loc. It is only temporary. I do intend to replace pipework.
