I'm a single mum and don't usually do DIY. I needed to replace my old Sink Combined Waste Overflow. With your detailed and very well explained description, I managed to do it all by myself. Thank you!

Massive thank you for the clear video! I needed to replace just the sink waste, so I purchased the one you linked, it looked exactly the same, but it wasn't exactly the same, BUT I managed to make it work: The metal basket's rim was a tad too large to sit flush in the dip, so I reused the old one, trimming the white seal to size and using the new screw. The overflow thingy ( didn't catch the name) didn't come off as it has been glued with some tough sealant. I did replace the overflow pipe itself with the new one. The sink waste was shorter than the old one, and I thought it was going to be a nightmare to screw it back in place, but it wasn't at all as the pipes have an OK play to adjust to the difference. Now everything is working just fine with zero leaking. Thank you so so much, I have learned something very handy. The only downside is that it is a stinky job 😂

No gradient on that waste pipe. They are not meant to go upwards.

Fair comment Claudio. Since shooting the video I've raised the waste trap up by about half an inch or so (it wasn't up as far as it would go), so that's reduced the 'incline'. The only real solution is to punch a hole through the wall lower down and re-route the waste pipe, but that wasn't going to happen late on a Friday night :-) It's another job on a long To Do list .... Cheers, Chris

The water is going to run upwards in that flexi cable. Is that fine?
@handyman-at-home
@handyman-at-home 18 күн бұрын
Hi, You're absolutely correct to highlight that as a potential problem. However, the video footage is slightly misleading in that the lowest point of the waste pipe was actually just lower (but not by a lot) than the lowest point of the connections to the washing machine and dishwasher. Since shooting the footage I raised the waste trap up by about half an inch or so (it wasn't up as far as it would go). The existing waste pipe outlet through the wall was already in situ and to change this would require drilling a new hole through the wall lower down, and re-routing the waste pipe. This wasn't going to happen late on a Friday night, so it got put on a long To Do list, for another time 🤣 (and has since been done). Cheers, Chris

This looks similar to mine, but it has a air vent on top of the left side Pipe top, near the tightening ring, which is leaking, and I can't get a replacement, so Isealed it up BUT. it now takes longer to empty the sink, and makes a loud gurgling noise.

On my sink the overflow pipe connects to the waste pipe coming from sink but water keeps coming out where the overflow pipe fits over. There’s an o ring washer there and I pull the overflow pipe over but after running water few drops still come through. Do I need to replace the overflow pipe? Or that and the waste pipe?

Hi, It's a bit difficult for me to visualise your setup but it sounds like water is getting past the o-ring washer or seal??? Is there any way you can check whether the o-ring is in the correct position and isn't damaged? Good luck. Chris

@@handyman-at-home yes water is getting past the o ring. I’ve replaced the o ring same thing happens, it sits in a little groove and then the pipe goes over that

May sound like a stupid question, will the dishwasher water not run back into the dishwasher as the pipe is raised?

Hi, Not a stupid question at all👍- it's a fair observation. I've answered similar comments before, so have just copied one of those here ... The existing waste pipe outlet through the wall was already in situ and to change this would require drilling a new hole through the wall lower down, and re-routing the waste pipe. This wasn't going to happen late on a Friday night, so it got put on a long To Do list, for another time (and has since been done). The video footage was also slightly misleading in that the lowest point of the waste pipe was actually just lower (but I agree not by a lot) than the lowest point of the connections to the washing machine and dishwasher. Since shooting the footage I also raised the waste trap up by about half an inch or so (it wasn't up as far as it would go), so that further improved the situation. Dishwasher's been working fine for over a year now. Cheers, Chris

That’s just going to drain your sink into your washing machine and dishwasher! The waste pipe should be the lowest not highest point.

Thanks Nick. The photo/video is possibly slightly misleading in that the lowest point of the waste pipe is just lower (but not by much) than the lowest point of the connections to the washing machine and dishwasher, so we've not actually seen any evidence of 'backflow'. However I agree the original position of the waste pipe is too high, and as per my reply to Claudio's comment, re-positioning it is on the To Do list.

how much would you charge to do a job like this ??
@handyman-at-home
@handyman-at-home 4 ай бұрын
Hi, Just replacing the sink waste with a new one shouldn't normally take more than an hour or two at the very most, depending on whether you hit any snags. A straight like-for-like replacement could be done in a lot less time... I used to charge £25/hour for handyman work (with a minimum charge of £20) but I'm retired now 😊 Cheers

I struggle to understand why a seemingly instructional video is made of fitting a waste pipe going uphill..
@handyman-at-home
@handyman-at-home Жыл бұрын
I struggle to understand why people are so quick to be critical and blast off a one line put down .... The purpose of the video was to demonstrate fitting a new sink waste and trap, specifically to facilitate washing machine and dishwasher connections. The existing waste pipe outlet through the wall was already in situ and to change this would require drilling a new hole through the wall lower down, and re-routing the waste pipe. This wasn't going to happen late on a Friday night, so it got put on a long To Do list, for another time (and has since been done). The video footage was also slightly misleading in that the lowest point of the waste pipe was actually just lower (but I agree not by a lot) than the lowest point of the connections to the washing machine and dishwasher. Since shooting the footage I also raised the waste trap up by about half an inch or so (it wasn't up as far as it would go), so that further improved the situation. We can all be critical of others efforts ...
