Garden Hosepipe on Reel (Portishead BS20)
Gifted
297d
- Long hosepipe on a good solid reel. It has a join as can be seen in the photo. You will need to buy new tap and spray connectors as the ones attached are old and cracked (we used Hoselock ones from B&Q or Homebase). I also can't remember if there are any leaks in the pipe - if so you would need to put waterproof tape on them or else cut the hose and rejoin with another connector piece. At the moment it is in Winford, but I could also bring it to Portishead if need be.
