I'm sure there's only one answer to this, but I've got a self-cut tap for an outside tap kit on the cold water feed to my boiler. Its past its best, and I'd like to remove.
How would one go about sealing the self cut hole? Presumably only real option is to cut out the section of pipe and replace with new pipe? Is this a job for push-fit? Of course, I could just leave well alone!

Its entirely possible to replace it with a new one reusing the same hole if thats what you want. I've done it a few times, just a matter of lining up the cutting bit with the existing hole.
Use a pipe repair coupling
If you have room to move one of the pipes by an inch or so (needed during fitting) .. cut it and use a simple Hep20 slimfit push fit fitting
