Handy information to fix your garden Hose!
| | Thread a gun-type nozzle onto the end of the leaking hose. |
| | Turn on the hose to find the hole or leak. |
| | Turn off the hose, remove the nozzle and mark the leak with black tape or a marking pen. |
| | Purchase a hose repair kit from the hardware store. Repair kits allow you to cut damaged area out of the hose and reattach the two pieces with new connectors. |
| | Cut off the leaky fitting with your garden shears. If the leak is in the center of the hose, cut an inch or two on either side of the hole. |
| | Soak the cut end in hot, soapy water. The hot water will expand and soften the rubber, making it easy to slip the repair fitting inside the hose. |
| | Clamp the plastic pieces on either side of the hose and screw them in place tightly. |
