I don't know much about sinks, the leak was from a big rubber washer underneath the sink. Just removed the plug bar thing and gave it a full 360 degree tightening. It's fixed in under 5 minutes. Whilst I was down there I took off the a long bowl thing from the trap. It stinks but it's empty? Just full of water, not messing about with anything else. Let them live with the smell.

Best video I've seen on this topic. Teflon tape + pipe dope + 100% silicone top and bottom. No leak possible! This really helped me out.
@davidg8032 Жыл бұрын
There is absolutely no reason to put Teflon tape or pipe dope on the top threaded fitting. Even the silicone around the drain cover does nothing to keep the sink from leaking. If the connection were to leak like a sieve at either place, where would the water go? It would simply go into the drain through the weep holes. And with the bottom nut, you need to make sure you get the silicone into the threads between the rubber gasket and the drain stem. Just getting it on the rubber gasket where it contacts the sink will not keep it from leaking. Thanks for taking the time to post this.

It will take some force, but will not be bad. The silicone around the rubber washer should peel off pretty easy. May take a razor blade or a flat screw driver around the bottom and top of the sink hole. Something with a flat edge that will not damage your sink. Replace the part put more silicone on and reinstall. This will make a good video and I will add it to my list! Thank you.

Hi there. Thanks for the video. My Kholer plastic pop up doesn't have threads the entire section below the plug - it's smooth plastic where the overflow drain holes are. Also, the rubber flange thing at the bottom needs to sit ABOVE the nut threads to sit tight to the sink. In that case would silicone alone be enough on bottom side of the rubber gasket (upper side of sink under plug) and the top side of the under sink rubber flange (above the nut)? If that makes sense.

going to try the silicone..having no luck with putty.....
@Morganthebandgeek Жыл бұрын
So my mother in law's sink does not have the pipe that goes all the way through the hole of the sink. It's a metal piece that was glued to the bottom of the sink. Can I replace this or should I just silicone it back?

That is interesting? What is going on topside?

Any suggestions when the wall behind the sink pipe is too small that the metal pole wont reach?

Thx fix it guy. Great video. I have one ? for you please I have the exact same sink in my bathroom but when I removed the old tailpipe drain there was some rubber hose and a round disc for the overflow drain attached to the tailpipe which I have never encountered before. Looks like you didn’t have this on your sink. Must I replace this disc type overflow drain or can I plug the overflow hole in the sink basin? Thanks. Hope this makes sense.

Thank you for the Question. If you like Email me a couple pictures at ufix247@gmail.com. I don’t see an issue with plugging the hole. An overflow is not required by code. Just make sure it is watertight.

I have the same sink set up but it isn’t the plastic part (mine which is metal) it’s leaking from those little black pipes, is there anyway to fix that?
@ThatFixItGuy Жыл бұрын
The black hoses that connect the faucet?

So mine has the pipe thing under the sink connected completely do I need to turn off any water or anything first ?
@ThatFixItGuy3 жыл бұрын
I would shut the water off just so no one uses it and forgets the pipe is disconnected. Will save you a mess.

I took my pipes apart underneath and cleaned them (toothpaste) put it back together and it is still leaking!
