Admirably clear. Having scratched my head all day over how to reassemble the waste trap under my sink without a leak, I got it done in moments..Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Thanks, this video helped me sort out the waste trap fittings on my sink! Simple to do and saved me calling out a plumber.
brilliant" to the point n not leaving out the tiny details that make the difference. thanks. washer position was wrong in my case!thx
That`s great.
many thanks. very easy to understand video from very experienced plumber. just the job.
A really useful guide - many thanks. In my system there appear to be two sizes of the conical rubber washer, both for 40mm pipe O.D. The larger washer as supplied in the general purpose kit from Screwfix is more prevalent, but there are two other conical washers that have a slightly smaller O.D. So beware of this little pitfall...
Thanks for the info John.

Is basin waste same format and structure as a standpipe and waste for a washing machine? I have a leak from the standpipe to the waste pipe and it only has a blue seal inside and no black washer. Can that be right?
Yes that is right. You can fix it by taking it out and using plumbers mait for the washer instead.
Very helpful info 👍
Glad it was helpful!
Very helpful thanks. I've changed basin taps and drainage no problem but the waste pipe at top leaks. Bloody simple job taking me days. New waste pipe that connects to new drainage leaks underneath
Try renewing the rubber sealing washers.
dereton33 thanks. It seems that the plastic pipe is to small to fit the crome waste. How do I overcome this please?
Thank you Sir! I think the washer is the issue 😊
No problem 👍
Another brilliant video from our online trainer! If the components of the trap look quite old and dripping from each connection would you just simply buy another trap?
If it was that bad, yes Matt.
Top man! Missus just unscrewed all this to deal with a blockage ... and could we get it back on properly!? Thank you so much.
No problem.
Excellent 👍
Thanks for the visit
Thank you thank you thank you
You are very welcome
Have a telescopic waste already but need even more reach. Bought an adaptor/coupler but it's not compatible. Any other options?
No best to alter the waste pipe to fit it. you can get flexi short lengthts that can bend and fit lots of situations.
@@dereton33 cheers.
I had a similar problem. The telescopic pipe didn't quite reach for a secure fit, so I used a coupling to make up the shortfall. McAlpine do them them in 1,2 and 3 inch lengths. Not sure, why it didn't work for you.
This was useful
Great.
Much appreciated. Thanks !
You're welcome!
Hi - what size washer is the the one on the bottom trap (the top one)?
Thanks
The size of the trap you are fitting 40 mm for sinks and 32 mm for basins.
great vid very useful thanks mate
No problem 👍
Very helpful thank you!!
No problem
Brilliant,thank you
No problem Mick.

No problem.
Great video, I'm self isolating my kitchen sink pipe keeps slipping down and leaking despite tightening the white plastic collar thing. Can I buy something on line?
You can get a new rubber washer for it or just replace the whole trap.
Thanks for replying. Are they universal size in UK, maybe get one online?
How many plumbers would have charged if all was needed was a little nip up with the hand to cure a leak? 🤔
I guess they still have to pay for there time and petrol costs to get to you.
2:10 my pipes can be separated by hand with out un screwing how would i fix that
New rubber washers.
Top man!
Thank you 👍🏽👍🏽
No problem.
Good, done all that, still leaks, bought new trap, still leaks??????
Cant win em all.
Mmm adjustable waste, that's a new one on me I didn't know you could get them.
Cheers geez
No problem.
