I was just about to sell my house until I found this video. Now I don't have to move. Thank you sir
Glad I could help
😂😂😂
So so funny
So funny!!
Lol, 🤣
Exactly the fault. Exactly the fix. I remember asking the bathroom fitter for an old-fashioned rubber plug for the sink just because I knew this would happen - 4 years later it did. Thanks for helping me fix it. -Tom, UK.
Thank you for taking the time to walk us through this, I was uncertain about turning the top part but you encouraged us. needed to pull out the popper and clean out the yuckky hair, but no popper disassembly required this time. However, I now feel confident that I will be able to do that when necessary. Super that you cared enough to share.
That's awesome! Glad the video helped you out.
Thanks so much, I fixed my mothers sink plug using your instructions. I just had to clean the central bit and it works just fine now.
Thank you! That worked really well. I just sprayed the citric acid solution I use for cleaning over all the parts in a cup and they looked like new in seconds. a small pair of pliers is definitely recommended.
Thanks mate. You properly sorted my problem out. My wife thinks I'm practically a pro-plumber. Have a lovely weekend
Glad to help!
Fantastic, you are the only one on uTube to show how to disassemble the piston and clear it, lubricate it, before replacing it. The Villeroy & Boch vanity sink we had, you couldn't buy a replacement piston that fitted, except in a whole new pop up unit. My husband followed your instructions and now we have a pop up piston and sink, working perfectly....thank you thank you :)
You're welcome 😊
Hey that was some good information there Roland👍🏻 very informative😊
Awesome! This fix worked like a charm!! Thank you! I'll look for the info on how to lube the insert piece next!
This video (and the one on how to remove a stopper that is stuck down) have just come in very useful, so thank you very much!
Great to hear!
THANK YOU! I am an ASE certified auto tech and I was about to destroy my sink. Now it works perfectly. Blessings to you!
Your welcome 😊
Good Video Roland, ours is not a pop up drain but we can't adjust ours and hubby working on that today, thanks for your tutorial!
Thank you from a grandma who always goes to UA-cam. Diagnosed my For F-150 truck problems. I am a UA-cam mechanic, no a UA-cam plumber! My daughter thanks you for your video!
This video just saved me calling someone out and actually just released the plug! Thank youuuuu letting me live my best indeopendant life 👌🏻🙌🏻
Your first two ideas worked great - thanks so much! 🙏
Thank you, thank you! I didn't have rubber gloves, but I _DID_ have a jar-gripper, and that worked too!
Part of your barrel disassembly portion is a little off screen, but other than that, I learned a lot, THANKS very much!
Thank you so much for this , I used the wooden stick idea worked a treat as mine was very stuck, cleaned all the muck out as it was disgusting, no wonder ot was stuck, and Thankyou for being easy to understand and didnt go on forever before you got to the point 😀
Thanks man! I just moved into a house with one of these pop-up stoppers and it got stuck this morning.
I've only ever had the lever stoppers before so I was kinda lost and upset ;D
I really appreciate your help.
That was a great how to video… Hopefully it’ll help out a lot of people
Thank you very helpful.
Omg this was so helpful! Thought my sink was broken before this video! Saved me a call to maintenance!
that great to hear!
Thanks for the detailed video. Really helped me out
Thank you for going step by step!
Worked like a charm. I liked understanding the problem and working to fix it. Thanks!
Great to hear!
Thank you. I just fixed my sink plug by following your instruction. Very well explained.
You're welcome 😊
It worked for me! Such a life saver. Thank you!
Great to hear!
Thank you SO MUCH for this. Mine is only a year old but it got stuck because we have very hard water here and the mineral deposits make things seize up. I needed to know how to take mine apart and get it working again. I used marine grease in mine -- meant to work in wet environments. Also had to clean the parts with vinegar -- I had to use pliers to twist the piston apart! Now it works great and looks like new again.
Wow great job!
Thank you for an excellent video.
Very useful video, thanks a lot
thanks for the tips. really helpful
Thanks 🙏 this really helped me 👍
Perfect! Fixed the issue, thank you
You freaking legend. Mine was stuck open but now it’s fixed thanks to you. Sending ❤ from over the pond 🇬🇧
Lol you're welcome 😊
Thanks so much. After i was able to remove it thanks to ur method. I sprayed q20 in at the bottom and it loosened it up. Now it's working again.
I used one of those suction cups that holds a mirror in the shower..attached it to plug and came up easy peasy.. the video was awesome..got me to figure out what was going on..
What a great idea! Wish I had read your comment before I did mine, it was tough to turn.
Thanks. Sorted the problem for me and saved money doing so.
Legend, thanks for this bro - helped heaps
Fantastic
It really worked thank you! Guys like you really help people like me!
Great to hear! Glad the video helped you. 🙂
This worked really well for me. Thank you so much!
Great to hear!
Thank you so much for this helpful video. Very clear and spot on.
You're welcome!
Great video mate thank you
UA-cam saving the day again. Thanks for the tip. Had to search for a heavy duty grippy piece of rubber (no thick rubber gloves in the house, used a rubber jar opener) and it popped out. Cleaned out the funk and it pops up and down smoothly.
Thank you! For my situation, it was actually easier, because I didn't have to take it apart. All I had to do was spray the inner column with WD-40 and it worked like a charm. Thank you for the advice about using it often!
BTW, I wasn't even able to get the column out with a wrench, but that's ok!
Thanks, worked for me a treat
Great stuff just done this perfect
you're a life saver
Your instructions were great. One added finding; the cap(plug) has a rubber sealing washer, this is where the sticking was. I removed that and cleaned away sludge then put the cap back on. Thank you
Great how to Roland.
thanks dude , helpful explanation
My hero today! Immediate fix. Thank you!!
Happy to hear it! You are very welcome.
You're a genius! Thanks
Good on you mate..I was about to call my nephew plumber late at night. Fixed from first your tip. Thank you
You're welcome 😊
Works like a magic! Saves my day, you do deserve a like 😆
Great to hear!
BRO TYSM UR A LIFE SAVER!!
Happy to help
Worked like a charm! Thank you
Glad it helped!
Perfect - thanks for the video, completely solved my jammed plug, quickly!
Great to hear!
Thank you for the super helpful instructions! Was nervous about this, but your steps explain it very clearly - managed to get the shaft out but when I replaced the clip it doesn't seem to catch. Meaning even when I press the cap down it won't stay down. The screw is rusted so I can't even open it up to check. Seems like a new one is probably going to be the solution but it's always good to understand how these things work ;)
Hi Kim, I just bought the whole shaft mechanism from local hardware store for $7, so once the cap was off, could just remove the shaft and replace with the new one. Super easy. Hope it helps.
Sunday afternoon saved 🙂 Thank you 🙂
You're welcome 😊
brilliant vid, this was bugging me for ages!!! thanks a million
Awesome 👌
Thank you! I got mine fixed 😊
Life and day saver. Thank you!
You're welcome 😊
God send my friend you saved me a few quid and I learned something🙌🏻
That's what I like to hear! Glad it worked for you
Good video rolland
Very well done step by step repair. I used fine steel wool to clean up the sliding cylinder and used faucet grease as lube. Works great now- thanks!
Good job! Thanks for watching 😀

You are welcome!
Just moved into a new place to find this problem thanks for the step by step 👍
You're welcome 😊
It helped...thanks
Mine was really jammed. After unscrewing and removing it from the drain pipe, to dislodge the insert I put a narrow hex key into the hole in the bottom of the housing and gently hammered on it to push the insert out from the inside. I used a pencil with sandpaper rolled around it to smooth out the inside of the housing so the insert could move freely when inserted. Thank you for the helpful video!
Worked for me - thanks a lot!
You're welcome 😊
Thank youuuuu, this worked so well :)
Glad it helped!
Superb, thank you so much. Just fixed mine with this video

Thanks. Sink sorted….
awesome!! thank you so much
You are welcome. Glad it helped.
was able to unjam it and get it back to working order. Thanks!!
Great! You're welcome 😊
Thank you! The instructions worked well. I found that it also helps to remove any standing water with a sponge and get the sink and stopper really dry. Helps you to get more traction on the stopper when turning left. Also, the video instruction for disassembly of the piston is out of view. For putting all parts back together, common sense guides you to assemble it in reverse order, but a close up of how the pieces fit back together would be helpful. I removed a second working stopper I have to see how it looked. Again, the video was super helpful and saved me the cost of a plumber as well as possibly purchasing a new piston. Thank you!!
Thanks I will have to watch it again to see the view. Glad you got it all worked out. It feels great to do it yourself doesn't it.
@@GettingItDoneNorthOf7 This hasn't been corrected and is still out of view. Also what lubricant do you recommend?
thanks its worked
Great video...my tub keeps on sticking...going to check that out to see if I can fix that... thanks for this video👍
Brilliant! Thank you, you saved us a fortune getting a plumber!
Awesome have a great day!
This helps a lot. What kind of grease do you recommend if you’re not a handy person and don’t have a tub like you used?
Thank you so much, i was about to lose my mind 😂😢
It worked! Thank you!! Saved me over $200 quoted by plumber. Thanks!!
You're welcome! Glad it helped.
thank you very for this video, i fixed my plug thanks to you, cheers
You're welcome!
Thanks Billy Bob Thornton!
I got my going like new great video thanks
Glad it helped
Thanks so much, was able to fix mine too
You're welcome 😊
I was soooo hopeful untill I got to the part where the screw came out and you're saying "now this should be able to come apart no problem". But yes, there is my problem. No matter what I try, it does NOT come apart. Not even moving a little bit. Not after WD40 lubrication stuff, not even after anti-limescale. Crying my eyeballs out, because I would be the hero today hahaha.
