Emergency leak repair.

3. Unstrap the hose clamp, wrap it around the gasket material at the leak site, and thread the strap end through the end that has the screw mounted on it. Make the strap fit snugly around the gasket repair.

4. Tighten the clamp screw with the screwdriver.

5. Clean up the area around the leak with the bucket and mop (if it was leaking for awhile), or sponge (if you caught it quickly).

6. Turn on the water supply. Sometimes the repaired area will drip briefly; if the dripping continues, you can tighten the clamp/gasket. And call the plumber! Even a really good repair won’t hold indefinitely.
