Those sleeves are like duct tape for plumbing—fine in a pinch, but you’re just waiting for round two.
Yeah, that’s spot on. I’ve seen folks patch the same joint three times before finally giving in and swapping the whole thing. Sometimes you get lucky and a patch holds for years, but usually once it starts leaking again, it’s telling you it’s done. Not always what people wanna hear, but ripping out the bad section saves headaches down the line.
Had a kitchen sink that kept springing leaks every six months—kept patching it, thinking I was clever. Ended up with a Frankenstein mess of clamps and tape. Finally swapped the whole section and, surprise, no more puddles under the cabinet. Sometimes you just gotta let go.
