first relocate the account pipe....and hack over my neighbour unit...seal back and ask my painter to paint whole wall...

second, just today....drill up for wiring and drive the above unit water pipping...the water pipe is using pb pipe..is black color...not pvc or abs...

got a hole there, the wiring man patch back using big strong plaster....need to wait until tomolo only dry....i really worry if it still leaking... sad.gif

by the way, can the big strong plaster solve the problem?

look like din't punch tru the pipe, if its not leaking right now, patch back with cement should be ok.

if its leaking, then call the plumber is the only choice nod.gif

my advise use PUTTY and NOT CEMENT TO PATCH/COVER IT just incase you need to fix it next time..

just curious how big of a hole was the hole ? a normal 8mm drillbit made that hole ?

don't know how big the hole...normal drill to wiring screw...
i think 6mm...

what u mean use putty? they say need to cement back to give the pressure to the pipe...

will cement back after 1 week...if no more leaking
