Replacing city water connection

Went camping this last weekend and when to unhook and found my house had shrunk. This caused my connection to be pulled at an angle away from the wall. No screws came out or anything but it leaks now. How hard is it to change?

Yikes! It's never good when your house shrinks!

Fairly easy. You can buy kits to replace. Just need to remember to re-caulk when you put everything back together.

You must have had that hose (house) pulled pretty tight to begin with.

As Jay said, it's pretty easy to replace. I make a circle of butyl tape to use behind the flange That seals the flange to the wall and it's what the factory uses most of the time.
