Shower drain leak repair

[@famdegroot1988]

Perfect video. Except I did not cut a hole in the ceiling but could see once I opened the drain. Not sure what sized seal to buy 92x105 or 85x108?

[@Sonic83165]

Awesome. Thank you. Quick and direct. Exactly what I needed!!!!

[@jasonmoore587]

I have the exact same shower drain, and this video worked like a charm!!! Thanks man!

[@theraxis]

This video is perfect. What the hell did we do before KZbin?

[@weekendwarrior3814]

Thanks for the video. Did you need the access from below to tighten the drain or were you able to do everything from above?

[@beezerh6586]

Hi. Love the video. You slid something into place before putting the rubber gasket back in. What is that called? Is it necessary?

[@Derbs603]

Wow thank you I just replaced mine

[@jamesoates6309]

Hi, i thought plumbers mait or putty is not reccomended for use on plastic? My shower trap is plastic so would this work? Or will it fail after time? Last plumber used silicone and it failed and caused lots of damp to timbers. Thanks.

[@masteromandiy]

Hi I usually use patty , but agree it’s also not a good choice In some cases I use silicon and it’s doing the work Again nothing is forever 😊

[@turbocar5656]

Hey masteromandiy, where did you get the washers?

[@romanzavlunovprivet4986]

@@turbocar5656 from Lowes, unfortunately you will need to buy an entire unit and use only the washer :)

[@turbocar5656]

@@romanzavlunovprivet4986 haha yep I learned the hard way after searching through everything. Ended up buying a whole shower strainer unit just to get a somewhat similar washer. I bought a sioux chief from ace for $11

super film

[@pattisonvidal3909]

Thanks, will try it..

[@vermontmike9800]

Is that paper ring really needed since it’s only the top portion that spins and not the bottom flange?

[@gibransalazar7769]

Hey. How did you fix the hole on the bottom floor? Thanks

[@56TheAnimal]

Thank you

[@uswwt]

Check for leak and DONE! lol. There is still a big hole in the ceiling, my friend. Although to be fair patching a hole can be a separate video. The most annoying thing about American ceiling is that, they almost always have all different kinds of stupid popcorn pattern that's impossible to recreate. I think in Canada you simply sand it down to a smooth surface. Nice and simple.

[@mikemcwilliams7801]

you can buy that in a can

[@uswwt]

@@mikemcwilliams7801 thanks. I know that. But good luck replicating the same popcron pattern. Unless you are Picasso, new spray on pattern will be very different.

[@jennajone45]

​@@uswwt I hate that popcorn design 😒

[@raw_va]

What washer size should I get? I see my local ace has a sink strainer washer that looks similar 3.5”. Is that what I need?

[@mbb4302]

Thoughts on no-caulk shower base drain?

[@masteromandiy]

@@mbb4302 it’s a great option, caulk will need a repair after some time , silicon gaskets are forever

[@dizkoteck]

What replacement drain did you get?

[@dougotto1705]

Plumbers putty or 100% silicon which is better ? ? ?

[@dieudonnee5525]

Always plumbers putty

[@williamkauffman8898]

Where do you get the replacement gasket

[@jasonmoore587]

I found the same gasket at Lowe's. Danco 2-pack 4.375 rubber washer universal

[@igonz22]

Please wear gloves next time you handle the putty, that stuff causes cancer

[@Marc_Yu]

So nice of you. I am going to change the rubber washer of the shower drain for my son. Your reminding is just on time. Many thanks.

[@fahimtube6803]

Do i have to cut the ceiling to do the job? I have the same problem. Thanks

[@DTSupstateNY]

You must live in Cali Everything causes cancer says Cali

[@vaughanstreeservice]

As far as plumber putty causing cancer This warning is listed because the Plumbers Putty contains small traces of Quartz; however the Quartz is inextricably bound and cannot come out of the product, so as a result it is not harmful.

[@jlj27311]

Hi what kind of replacement drain did you use I have the same shower

[@masteromandiy]

Hi I used the same original drain and replaced only the rubber

[@jlj27311]

@@masteromandiy thanks!

[@jamiegrant5871]

@@masteromandiy Can you share what gasket you are using? I have a similar setup to you, I'm having a hard time finding a replacement large enough (around 4.25in OD). It looks like you have a fiber washer too, so I'm guessing you are using a 4.375in sink rubber basket strainer washer kit?

[@lorenzolopez8297]

Nice view of your hands. Next time try showing the work. Ahahahahah

[@ptech88]

[@zuesforceone8087]
