repair coupling is the right way. but I am impressed with these tradesmen who do so much with so little.

I like this, heated to reshape before cement instead of buying coupling adapters. A small space to work, and other pipes already in place.

Shouldnt heat it you should use a slip coupling or use a flat rasp to file down the stop inside a regular coupling.

Why not bust open the tops of the other two pipes, so you could get repair couplings down in there? Actually you would only need to open the top of one more pipe. The first pipe would have plenty of room for a coupling if the others were moved out of the way.

Okay so what's the lesson in this? Well just for starters...if you leave just one of the pipes mobile this goes together easy. Second, if pipes are not mobile at all, you can use a PVC compression coupling or dig up one side left or right to bend that joint together. From a former irrigation installer.

Irrigation Engineer here... nope, that looks like drainage pipe and for drainage I try to never use T's but Y's... for SCH 40, is better to use threaded unions or slip couplings... good video for an emergency, but I would not recommend. And if you need to build a block/concrete box, leave room for future repairs (I always leave the fitting on one side of the box, that gives me space if I need to use couplings).

Making up 3 connections at one time? There ain't enough time, can't twist pipes into place as recommended. Bet there were dry joints, especially after heating up the glued joints to pretty up all those twists added to do this THE HARDEST WAY POSSIBLE. See, here in America, where PVC originated, we established what is called a set of BUILDING CODES AND Best Practices Standards. We created ASME and ANSI Standards, along with some pretty good testing procedures to control how those were created. But hey, the rest of the world just needs a hair dryer and some clear glue. You do you, dude. I'm guessing this is a water supply system, since the tee didn't have a sweep. And even though the pipe is grey, it for SURE isn't electrical conduit without a sweep on the tee.
