Hope somebody can answer this question for me.
The shut-off valve of my toilet is leaking. At first I thought I'd just tighten the packing nut behind it a little, but I found that the nut was already tightened as much as It will go.
After the valve is a solid pipe going to the tank (no flex) and feeling behind the valve on the stub-out, I feel a small lump like you do sometimes when things are "sweated" on. It's probably the original plumbing from when the house was built in 1971.
My question is, is this something I can replace or do I need to call a plumber? I have no experience with soldering joints.
