We previously published a video tutorial about how to repair a garden hose at either end. If that tutorial is more relevant and you’d like to view it, click here.

Be sure you buy the right SIZE – most garden hoses are 5/8 inch or 3/4 inch, but some are 1/2 inch. Choose the right kind of hose repair kit for the size of hose that you have. Some heavy-duty hoses are a bit thicker so the plastic type of repair kit might not work.
