      I have a leaking leaded joint form the 1” main water supply that enters my house. I was told I need to either use a flare fitting to make the repair or silver solder all the fittings.

      What method would you recommend for a home owner?

      If it is copper tube I would recommend a CTS cmpression Ftg unless you have access to a 1″ flaring tool.
