Re: Mowed over this PVC pipe.

Hi @Pnk86,

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community, it is wonderful to have you with us.

 

You'll have to dig up the pipe, so you have full access to it on all sides for around 150mm on each side of the hole.

 

You can then use a hacksaw or a reciprocating saw to cut the pipe square on either side of the hole.

 

Once the pipe has been cut, you can use a Deks PVC Stormwater Coupling in the correct diameter for your pipe to rejoin the two parts.

 

Let me know what you think and if you have further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

 

Jacob
