Sealing hole in wall

[Tom JE]

Hi,

I drilled an 18mm hole in my brick wall that goes from my downstairs toilet to my garage. It has a 15mm copper pipe through it but it gets very cold and draughty in the winter.

Whats the best way to seal this hole from the cold of the garage?

Cheers

Tom

LOL. A whole can?

18mm is about this big

A teaspoon of silicone or filler will do. Or a postage stamp

Cheers chaps,

I know its a small hole but you wouldnt believe the draft that come through it.

I'll try the expanding foam as i have that already i think!

Thanks

Please post photos of the results of trying to fill a 3mm gap with expanding foam.

Oh you old spoil sport

I reckon some silicone sealant should do the job.
