Hello all
Last year I connected 3 waterbutts together using connector sets I bought. All seemed well but they leak a bit from the connections. I tried using bathroom sealant last year to fix the leaks but that didn't work. Last week I bought some bitumen sealant for external use and proceeded to apply it around the joins. I was sure that it would have done the trick this time but alas some of the connections are still leaking. I think this might be because there may still have been a little water in the connecting pipes (I did try and get them as dry as possible) leaking out.
Does this sound the likely cause, and does anyone have any tips on how I might fix the problem...I'm already planning on disconnecting the joins and trying to dry the insides of the tubes to see if that works.
Thanks
