The other day when daddy Dave was working on finishing up a few simple plumbing repairs and the job on hand was done, the water system was pressurized and a new leak was discovered. The problem was it was behind the tile shower wall and the only way to get acces to the pipes was to ether distory the shower or cut through the extirior. Daddy Dave didn't feel like replacing a perfectly good shower so the an access opening was made outside this could be used if future problems arose.
Here's the leak a split copper pipe probably from frozen pipes...
A new section of pex replaced the spent pipe....
Next daddy Dave needed to make that hole in the side of the house disappear. First a peice of pywood was cut to fit and the siding was put back together.
This panel was made to be able to remove if future repairs are needed....
Some flashing was added to prevent leaking......
And a new coat of paint, not seemless but close enough.
