Hi, I have a very strange problem that's been driving me mad all day!
I have a small leak in a 22mm cold water pipe, as a nail that was originally there (from years ago), was dislodged, causing the leak
I had to hacksaw the pipe as the hot pipe is virtually touching it (very few mm's inbetween pipes), so cut both pipes.
The trouble is, I can't get a fitting on and the pipe is full of water still and when I tried soldering, 2 of the 8 joints leaked
The 2 pipes have very little space between them, so I am a bit stuck here, I've never had a leak like this before with no room to fix it easily!
Any tips would be great please
Thanks for reading my post
