yes, jb weld. i was just in a house last week. the homeowner used a product like jb weld but made for water lines. he fixed the leak about 2 months ago. him and his wife went to atlantic city for a weekend. there kids called, the guy we lives next door noticed water coming out of there bilko door in the basement. the fix job blew off, flloded the basement to the top!! the water co had to shut the water off. the foundation pushed, ruined the finished basement. they have to jack the house up, redo the foundation and set the house back down. replace the entire basement stuff. i was there to messure up for heat and a/c. this was a 500k house, the guy drive a bmw 700 series. he didnt want to pay a plumber $150.00 to fix his leak. water can do alot of damage. a broken toilet tank in the 2nd floor of a house broke, the entire 1st floor ceiling fell onto the 1st floor of the house. ruin a grand piano and all the furnishings. the house had to be gutted. all ways shut your main water valve off if your going on vacation or going to be away for a while.
