To make matters worse, the split was so slight, it took a few minutes of water testing in the right area before anything appeared.....so easily missed.
Took me a good few weeks with the interior stripped & water testing to cure all the leaks on that one. But I'm pleased to say been bone dry since  |
Heh - good point, just have to hope you're wrong in this case. but I'm pouring the water from the watering can onto that area, so it can't be too far away... we'll see...
