copper water pipe hole repair

Lauren De Buyer

I was working on replacing the shut off valve and accidentally drilled a hole on the copper T water pipe. I am guessing there is no other way to fix it than replacing the T? How much do you think is reasonable to get a plumber to get it repaired? Thanks.


The little bump above the flange is where the leakage is. I was using a puller to get the old compression ring out and accidentally went too far and caused it.

    Probably $200-300 bucks, location dependent.

    I'd charge a neighbor at least a six pak plus $5 to cover Sil-Fos. For kin folks and strangers I'd undercut Millman and do it for $199-299 bucks.

    Hi, I think the burning question is Why would you need a drill to change the angle stops.

    HI, Sorry, I did not read you put the hole in with your puller.

    Of course, since we already know you are handy, you could learn to sweat copper. Buy a torch, some flux, solder and cleaning tools. Then practice on some fittings that you buy just for that purpose.

    I'm sure that there are plenty of videos on YouTube to show you how to do it.

    Just make sure the water is out of the pipe well below where you are trying to solder.
