Hello, I have a garden tap fitted with a wallplate that is connected to the kitchen on the inside wall.
Currently having a kitchen re-done, and this copper pipe has been pushed out slightly, leaving a gap between plate and wall.
The brick wall is rendered.
This is the wallplate+tube: https://www.toolstation.com/made4trade-wallplate-tube/p10508
I tried tightening the screwn but it doesn't move, presumably because the copper pipe on the inside will need to be shortened.
I want to avoid shortening the pipe as the plastering work is already done.
How do I seal this gap to avoid water ingress?
Silicone sealant? Masonry filler?
