Hi all, got leak in 15mm mains water pipe close to incoming valve into house. It's in a very confined space. I clamped it with rothenberger clamp for temporary fix
What is deemed to be the best brand of push fit copper or plastic fixings please?
I'm thinking of cutting out elbow and replacing with pushfit pre made piece.
Really confined space through kitchen cabinet.
Thanks all

Hi Andy, it's pitted pipe, spraying mist of water out, soaked a lot of my kitchen (. Access is limited via access hole in kitchen cabinet. I can get one hand in, it's tight. Hence was looking at push fit, though never plumbed using push fit in my DIY years of plumbing... Unless I open up cabinet hole More to get both hands in and use compression, still pondering on solutions
