  • How to install a pop up sink hole plug, my one locked up and I could't push it down anymore so after attempts at fixing it I found it better to just replace it.

    Fitting removed, drain cleaned, new part ordered. Sink now draining lovely. I think you’ve just saved me money in getting a plumber in! Bless you. I love UA-cam!

    Many thanks. With this vid showing exactly how things are put together (unlike some others) I was able to remove, strip, clean, lubricate and replace the unit with very little trouble. I did try just cleaning the unit intact at first, but even after that, once I dismantled it I found a lot of residual crud inside. Interesting that some say use WD40 and others say that will make things worse over time and you should use grease. I used a little grease and it works like new! I'd just sprayed WD40 on it a few times before but it never lasted long. Who knows how long it will last this time but at least I now know that I'd done everything short of replacing it. Last week it was replacing the air filter on my car that the garage wanted to charge me £70 for and today this! I love UA-cam and particularly the kind hearted people who take the time and effort to post these helpful videos for everyone's benefit. Thanks again.

    Very useful! I was about to call a plumber to fix mine but this has saved me a £60 call out fee!

    Fixed my plug with a new part. Thought I'd have to change the whole plug. You saved me a headache. Thanks.

  • @ArsenalGunnerHesh

    Useful thank you. Although can’t help thinking these things are over engineered. Might just replace with a plug and chain

    my one comes out with the plate attached to the mechanism, I can't get the plate off at all and can't find a plate replacement, it measures 42mm diameter
