How to Repair a Broken Drip Irrigation Line | Quick and Easy Fix!

[@lorenazaragoza6411]

I’m a 50 yr old female going through a divorce and recently bought my own home. I’m on a tight budget and this video gave me the confidence to go out and purchase the supplies to do my own repairs. Thanks, you saved me a lot of money!

Thank you so much. I had multiple small damaged due to core aeration and I got quote for $100 per each leak repair, having this tutorial video is awesome, I’m gonna diy some day.

Very helpful video! Thank you for sharing and for teaching me how to do this on my own.

Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Very helpful. God bless you! I'm off to buy the parts. I had a plumbing leak from the utility supply to my home which I had fixed in January. The plumbing guys broke the irrigation lines & tried to cover it up by wrapping with some tape and burying the line. I discovered this last night with the onset of summer. Aargh! I hope it is as easy as you have shown. I will also be picking up a couple of riser stakes, since they broke a couple of those too.

I've seen a lot of people try to repair with tape. It might work for a little while, but before long it will be leaking again. This method is a permanent fix, unless something else damages the line. Hope your repair went well with no issues. Thanks for watching 😊🌱

I use dishwashing soap, e.g., Dawn, to make it easier when sliding the connector. Makes things easier to force/muscle the connectors into the tubing.

Can you show how to determine what size tube we have?

[@willk7184]

Thanks friend, good info.

[@DonOzzymand-lh1jh]

are there different types of emitters? the one i have keep popping off cause of water pressure, any advice?

[@InTheGarden]

They are all basically the same design. If they are popping off, I think you may not have a pressure regulator/reducer installed. The water pressure from a house is too high and will cause emitters to pop off and connections to come loose. The regulator will reduce the pressure to the proper level for a drip system. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching 😊 🌱

I have a leak in the supply hose coming out of the water (pump?) Going into a cemented underground hose - that section is only about 6" long and can't be bent to fix as your tutorial shows. How could I fix a stiff section of hose like that?

[@bruceyoung7875]

I tried this and the coupling fix tight on one end and loose on the right side. I flipped the coupling and the same right side was loose. Any suggestions?

Why not give a link to the various couplers especiall the type that fits different pipes?

[@InTheGarden]

Hi there, there are links to all the products in the video description 🙂 Thanks for watching 😊🌱

[@Girish014]

I followed the same but water still leaking any other suggestions. Grt help though!

[@InTheGarden]

Be sure you are using the same size tubing and connectors. They should fit together VERY tight. If they are loose, water will leak out.

I tried fixing a section similarly to how you did the second fix (minus the need for a punch and replacing of the drip offshoot). Let's just say that the twisting coupling didn't work anywhere near as good as yours did. It still spewed water out. I even used some blue pipe glue just to ensure the connections were sealed. Any ideas as to how to fix the section with the screw couplers without leaks afterwards?

[@friendlyfaces1023]

You'll need to be sure you have the exact width of your current hose. It's usually printed on the side of the hose.

Great video. Great content. I will be watching your other videos. I am an older single woman and think you are an attractive man but have you ever considered having your beard groomed when you get your hair cut? It would be so much easier to look at you. You do have a great beard otherwise.
