QUICK AND EASY FIX FOR LOOSE OUTDOOR FAUCETS ON BRICK HOMES

What happens here

Prepare the construction adhesive for application. Use a utility knife to cut the tip off the tube's nozzle. Load the adhesive tube into a caulk gun. Since the caulk gun shown does not have a built-in poker, use a separate piece of wire or a long nail to puncture the inner foil seal of the adhesive tube.

Goal: Prepare for adhesive application

Tools and materials

  • Caulk Gun — Dispensing the construction adhesive from the tube
  • Wire — Puncturing the inner seal of the adhesive tube if the caulk gun doesn't have a built-in poker
  • Construction Adhesive Quikrete — Bonding the hose bib to the brick wall and filling the surrounding gap

in place and to do that we're going to end up using some of this quick crete i mean i just found this construction adhesive down to the big box store and it says that it's commercial grade and it permanently bonds to concrete wood masonry plastics drywall all kinds of stuff right and so that should give us a nice secure fit that we're looking for without having to try to drill this man because if we did we're just looking for blowouts all right so hopefully this works out for us so luckily i actually had a piece of wire that i could stick down in here get that hooked up and [Music] now we're ready to put this ultra cheap cot gun that doesn't even have a thing to poke down in here right such a bummer but this is going to hook us up and it's going to serve its purpose i just grabbed the wrong one
