Tumataas ba ang water bill o may basang pader? Alamin kung pipe, threaded joint, valve o drain ang tagas bago bumili ng fittings.
Mapapansin ang damp cabinet, mahina ang supply, o patak sa exposed pipe. Differentiate pressurized supply leaks from drainage leaks: a drain may drip only when used, while a supply line can leak even when taps are closed.
01 / Identify the actual problem
Mapapansin ang damp cabinet, mahina ang supply, o patak sa exposed pipe. Differentiate pressurized supply leaks from drainage leaks: a drain may drip only when used, while a supply line can leak even when taps are closed.
02 / Practical step-by-step checks
- Shut off water safely and dry accessible surfaces; mark where new moisture first appears.
- Observe whether leaking occurs continuously or only when the sink, shower or washing machine runs.
- Inspect exposed joints, valves and flexible hoses. Hidden wall leaks deserve a professional inspection.
- For damaged PVC joints, identify actual pipe size, pressure rating and approved joining method; don’t force incompatible fittings.
Take a clear photo, note the location and measurements, document the existing part or tool model, and check the exact manufacturer’s safety and application instructions. Ask for a quotation only once the material and quantity requirements are clear.
03 / Common mistakes to avoid
- Covering an active leak with paint or sealant instead of repairing the pipe.
- Mixing nominal pipe sizes, thread types or adhesive systems.
- Opening walls without checking nearby electrical lines.
04 / Match the material to the job
Explore ask the SAVG Tool Advisor for pipe and fittings selection. These links are for practical product research, not guarantees of stock, price or suitability. For a larger mixed-material order, request a quotation so the team can review the actual requirements.
Quick question
Does waterproof coating fix a PVC pressure leak? No. Replace or repair the faulty pipe or fitting using an approved system. Coating outside the pipe is not a reliable pressure-rated repair.
