Is it mains pressure or gravity fed? 
 

I had to squint to see the damage, but unfortunately it is there. The hose needs to be replaced imo as the braiding has very little mechanical purchase on that compressed ring and it’ll be very reliant on that to stop any further unravelling. 
 

These are cheap, go get a new one   

 

Out of curiosity, are you using the wrong tools for this job?

It’s gravity fed with a booster pump. 
I used one of those basin wrenches but I think I may have caught the pipe a few times with it?

Not really sure how it happened to be honest. 
should I replace it straight away? Could it burst while out of the house job?
Thanks Nick

It won’t burst today or tomorrow, but change it asap. Leave this at your peril. 
 

Is it a full bore flexi?
