Easy to fix leaking faucet but not

It took 2 days to get our defective gate valve of our faucet fixed. I called the water district twice and a woman replied telling me to wait for the repair man to come over.
We didn't know why our faucet kept on leaking. The water keeps on oozing and it floods the foot walk since our water meter is located along the sidewalk. So I temporarily bounded it with rubber strip to prevent continuous water leakage.
Late this afternoon two water district repairmen arrived and fixed it. Now leak was gone and the defective check valve was replaced by a new one.

So did the water keep leaking for two days? That must have been a lot of loss, isn't it?

Nope. The leaking part is wrapped or bounded by a rubber strip.. Then ut took 2 days before it was replaced the defective gate valva.

The defective is the check valve. It's replacement is made of fiber glass I think
