i have aleak in a 4 inch pvc drain pipe at a joint how can i repair


Cut it out and replace the fitting. Yeah, PVC isn't the godsend claimed to be. I'm seriously thinking of never using it again, after running into frequent failures. Like, joints that were clearly primed and glued have been found to now be dried-out and released or stress-less assemblies found to have multiple cracks through multiple fittings and even pipes when they never could've ever frozen.
