After bathing one of the dogs, I took a quick shower. Sadly, it started leaking more and couldn't seal it anymore. Forced me to have it fixed.
But what should have been just an hour took more than three hours because the pipes were old. I replaced the handler with the valve instead. The fix it's just temporary.
Wished I just stick with the bucket bath instead
Yeah, nothing productive except that..

Hello @DianneN I hope it will because the pipes down below it are rusting and could make me replace more pipes if it gets broken again.

Otherwise, I would be forced to replace more pipes than the one I just did @Adie04

@Adie04 That's the time we hire a professional plummer.

@Letranknight2015 It is difficult to work with the older pipes.

Hello @msdivkar Yes, these tools were fairly enough to do the job. Sadly, the pipes were older than i thought.

Hello @Lavanya15 the original plan was to remove it and put a seal permanently.

I'm not good at fixing anything. I hope nothing breaks that can't stay broken awhile, but I really don't want to have anybody in the house till the pandemic is over.
