A weeping hot water cylinder or attic tank means corrosion has breached the vessel - replacement is usually required.
Isolate the water to the cylinder, switch off the immersion, and call a plumber to replace it.
Typical fix cost in Carlow: €350-€1,500. Do not attempt work on live systems - get a licensed specialist on it.
