I have two leaking lawn sprinkler valves: one is moist at the valve-to-pvc connection and the other is dripping solid at the valve-to-pvc connection. Is there a recommended way to stop these leaks (silicone?) without cutting out the valve, re-seating and re-cementing onto new piping? I have placed a mirror underneath and see no visible signs of hairline cracks so I assume the moisture is coming from the connection itself. Thanks in advance.
