  • Sink closer is not pop-up, This is my own initiative to solve the problem I'm not an expert on it. I think there may be another smart method for solving the problem.

    I sympathise with this drastic approach. I had one of these completely jammed solid. All these nice tips about WD40, rubber gloves, tape, suction cups, dental floss... ha, yeah, no. Couldn't budge it. I got down under, took off the U-bend placed the head of chisel against the underside of the plug assembly and whacked the other end with a hammer. Sorted. Then I took the whole thing out, chucked it in the trash and went and bought a good old fashioned rubber plug. These things are infernal, over-designed pieces of crap and I'll never have another one as long as I live. I mean... what's wrong with the old rubber plug? It does the job, right? And there's absolutely nothing to go wrong with it!
    Modern life is rubbish...

    Thanks for sharing - very extreme drilling it though. I just watched a video and they used a glove just like yours and used it to put friction on the plug and unscrewed it anti-clockwise

    Did stages 1 and 2 and worked a dream. Didn't have to drill the plug as I got a pin on the edge of the plug and released it by gently knocking it in the side and moving the plug away from the seal

    I will try this maybe because my sink is fancy and sealed into the wall so I can’t access the pipes and suction cups don’t work for me, thank you.

    Use a plummers plunger to pull the valve up by using a quick pull up and the valve will come up and you do not need to drill. Alternatively you can undo the s bend and use a screwdriver from underneath to push the valve up. You may need a slight blow with a hammer.

    No need to drill. Just use a small silicon suction cup to pull up or turn anti-clockwise to remove the stopper cover.

    Lol, that’s a bit drastic to use a drill, I found doing the first part and then swearing profoundly at God and his merry little elf’s worked its magic ! ( alternative suggestion,it worked for me ! ) 😉😁

    Just use vacuum cleaner if you are sure that water isn’t clogged ..

    I may try this....my stopper just doesn't move. Just drill it
    out and replace it after removing sludge and a toothbrush.

    Gorilla tape worked for me. Just put some tape on the plug and pull it up

    Noooooooo ..... you don’t need a drill. Did you really try hard to unscrew it ?

    I got mine out in 1 second, using some duct tape.

    What un idi.! I used the tape , hold the tape down in one thump and twisted with the other hand. Removed it in 10 seconds.

      Sometimes these things get so thoroughly jammed that this sort of solution just doesn't cut it. Trust me on this...
