Good evening every body, i am a new to the caravaning world & would appreciate some advice.

I have a elderly caravan & have done a couple of trips with no issue's. Last outing though she sprung a couple of leaks on the plastic piping  leading directly onto taps in bathroom.

They look to be a tapered fittings i was thinking on using the bonding glue  used on external waste pipe any advice would be gratefully received. Thanks Frank.

I'm not saying don't use glue, but would a jubilee clip not do the job?

I would normally but its on the hard water pipes after the hose. I'm worried as she's a 1991 model they will be brittle & ill end up in a worst situation than i am now..😂 thanks for replie & interest, no body has screamed don't bond them so guess what i'll be doing later on today.... ? Thank you.
