    Plastic connection on copper pipe is leaking how can I fix this
    I have copper pipe in the house I purchased and noticed a leak the other day at the plastic tee connection on the pipe. I tried to fix it with glue and tape but did not last long, need to cut it out and repair, but can I use flex tubing instead with a plastic tee connector?
    And how easy is these for some one with little experience.
    Thanks
