When I was starting shower upstairs then there was a leaking in garage ceiling. So I ripped the garage ceiling and found out that there is small brass pipe which connect to shower pipe and other pipe. This small pipe joint with shower drain pipe is leaking. I called the plumber he told me that he need to cut the pipe and replace it and cost me about 1000 bucks. Is there any way without replacing the pipe, could I put any sealer or do shouldering.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks
Sumit

Yes! There is a repair tape on the market that just might save you from that thousand buck kick in the a$$ the plumber wants to charge. It's called Pow-R Wrap and you can check it out at; http://www.wired-2-shop.com/joneakes/ProductDetail.asp?ProdID=49&nPrdImageID=&CatID=10
Good luck, Tom
