What happens here

The first step is to identify the source of the leak, which is typically where the garden hose connects to the outdoor faucet (also known as a hose bib). Turn off the water supply to the faucet to stop the leak temporarily. Then, unscrew the garden hose from the faucet to disconnect it.

Goal: Stop water flow and disconnect the hose.

Tools and materials

  • Garden Hose — The hose that is leaking at the connection point
