Same thing happened to mine last year. I put a piece of used chewing gum over hole from inside. Hasn't leaked since.

I threw mine over a 4storey balcony. Too much hassle.
It completely fell to bits when it landed on a trade waste bin below.

I've used something similiar and it worked fine; I plugged it from the inside; just make sure it's nice and dry before applying any filler type stuff.

I threw it because the pump was forever sticking using hot water , too much hassle carrying that weight up the service lift and it was too slow to work with. Can't beat a van mount.

No wonder people get fed up with being on cleaning forums too long, everybody just criticises, whinges, moans, takes life too seriously. There's a life outside window cleaning. It's just a job to pay the bills to enjoy life
