  Once you've noticed a pinhole leak inside your copper tube, and it's above the slab it's not that hard to repair.
  
  Separate the leak, and turn the water off to the house, both at the device where it is available in or at the water meter by the street.If you turn it off at the house then open the hose bib that's often found just above the water shut off. This may releive any pressure in the internal pipes, and the leak should stop leaking.
  
  The next thing you need is to have the pieces to avoid the leak. If it is a pinhole leak all that's necessary is a small little bit of soft rubber, and a pipe clamp. Get more on our favorite partner paper by navigating to waterproofing. Look for a hold that's near the size of the pipe. You can frequently find these at the local hardware or auto parts store. Ensure the plastic is soft when you tighten the hold so it will close the leak.
  
  Don't over tighten the clamp or you could have a bigger leak and crush the pipe. Trust me I have done this. Place the plastic on the hole and secure the clamp. When you think you've it tight enough change the water right back on and always check the leak. If it's stopped dripping then you're done and you're now a plumber. My co-worker found out about basement waterproofing by searching books in the library. If not gradually tighten the clamp before the leak stops. Identify extra info on this related link - Visit this web site: basement waterproofing. Remember do NOT over tighten the hold. In this instance just a little is better than too-much. Hopefully this will be the last leak you will have, but odds are it'll not be. I can practically guarantee you that you'll have more where I live if you live in Florida.
