Watch on YouTube

What happens here

For this temporary repair, you will need a small piece of old rubber hose and a worm clamp (also commonly known as a hose clamp or jubilee clip). Ensure the piece of hose is long enough to completely cover the pinhole leak and extends slightly beyond it on both sides. The hose should also be flexible enough to conform to the pipe's curvature.

Goal: Collect and ready the items needed for the temporary fix

Tools and materials

  • Hose Clamp — To securely hold the rubber hose patch in place over the leak
  • Old Piece of Hose — To act as a rubber patch over the pinhole leak

This is a repair that I've done many times over. I'm sure a lot of plumbers have in a quick pinch and it works for a long time. Just go ahead, shut your water down. I'm gonna go open some faucets. We'll get this drained out. We need an old piece of hose and a hose clamp, a worm clamp, right? One little piece of that. We'll grab our worm clamp. You just wanna make sure that you have the clamp right over that little hole. You had a screw gun. This would go a little bit faster,
