We got called out to a house where the customer had noticed a slow drip at one of the supply line connections under a bathroom sink — seemed minor, but when we got under there the braided stainless supply hose had started to separate at the crimp fitting near the valve end. Those crimped-end hoses can look fine on the outside until they're really not. We swapped it out for a new reinforced braided line, checked the shutoff valve while we were in there since it hadn't been turned in years and the packing felt stiff, and cleaned up the connection at the faucet tailpiece where mineral buildup had been accelerating the wear. Everything was dry and holding pressure before we left.
