Water pipe issue

Posted by Stephen , on Tue 29 May 2018 06:06pm

I have a water leak. Water turned off at stopcock. Found disconnected plastic pipe behind bathroom wall. Plastic/pvc? pipe has disconnected from metal joint. How do I fix together so that water pressure does not separate them again.

The joint would need to be redone and possibly some pipework alterations I wouldn't recommend using the same fitting as it has already failed
