@Sharkstar It's going into/out of the boiler. Not the mains stopcock (that's elsewhere)
I subsequently noticed that it's not a threaded joint, which definitely puts it beyond my skill set.
Any rough ideas on what I might be looking at cost-wise? Hoping for south of £100...

I would have thought £100 would easily cover it. I had an outside tap fitted for £130 and that involved drilling through about three feet of brick.

You can cut out a bigger section and use push or screw fit connectors.
If it is the tap that is leaking you can in theory turn the water off, take the tap apart, clean it, replace the washers and reassemble.

If it’s not your mains stop cock you should be fine, it’s a easy job to fix. You might not even need the stopcock and can just take it out and put a new bit of pipe into it doing away with the stop cock.
Plastic push anyone can do there’s no great science in it. If you do attempt it, make sure the fittings have full slip!

What’s the stopcock for?
