    Bradle hole in a plastic domestic water pipe
    I've just put a bradle hole in a water pipe in a flat running in the wall cavity above a bathroom sink whilst hanging a mirror! I removed some plaster board and sealed it with the bradle. Is their a way to seal the hole or has an area of board got to be removed top replace a section? Thanks very much.

    Cut the pipe at the brad hole, then reconnect with a coupling of same type of pipe and glue.
