- Totally get the temptation to just slap a patch on and hope for the best.
- Thing is, once you see pitting or greenish corrosion, that’s your pipe’s way of waving a white flag.
- I’ve done the “just one more fix” routine... ended up crawling under a house at 3am with a flashlight and a bucket. Not my favorite memory.
- Sometimes it’s worth ripping up some drywall now instead of dealing with water damage later.
- That said, if it’s just one tiny spot and the rest looks solid, maybe you can buy yourself a little time—but don’t push your luck too far.
