You have just saved me a massive hassle! I was about to remove the stand to replace the whole mechanism as I didn't know you could just undo the piston with a wrench. So glad I stumbled on this video. You now have a new subscriber!!
👍👍👍
Great vid and demo. No waffle BS that we see on Yank tutes. Fully explained, while showing how the practical side operates. Thanks.
Thanks Bill. I never had an issue but I watched it for future troubleshooting. Thanks for sharing mate. 👍
Thank you! We had no idea how easy this was. We thought you had to go from under the sink.
Thanks, Bill! I spent 1 hr trying to open the pop-up waste. Then, I spent 4 min watching and following your video, and my problem was solved.
You’re welcome 👍
chuffed to bits (thats a good thing) to have found your channel - this issue in particular has bugged me for years - thank you SO MUCH
Mate that's brilliant I learn something new nearly every time I watch your content. I would like to wish Bill and everyone a Very Merry Xmas and also a Happy Prosperous New Year. Cheers to everyone this holiday season see you all in the new year.

This channel is excellent. I have used these videos a surprising number of time. Great job!
Very well explained Bill. Easy follow instructions when explained so well.
I've seen them before. Never knew they doubled as the plug. Thanks for helping me not look so stupid.
Looking forward to the vid where you replace the whole pop up waste.
Have a great Christmas Bill
Cheers
Thanks for the video, worked perfectly. These popup wastes look nice but they fail constantly, I'm going to replace it with a standard plug next time.
Thank you so much. I was going to get the plumber out, so you’ve saved me £70.
So easy to unscrew the plug when it was stuck, IF you use rubber gloves.
And replacing the piston, so easy!!
You’re welcome 👍👍👍
Thanks Bill. Great and handy little vid. Came in useful. Have a happy new year mate to you and your family and hopefully these brilliant videos keep on coming in 2022. All the best Champ!

OK Bill, you may have read a previous comment of mine in that you have a camera hidden in my place so you can make your videos based on the problems I have. Well, you've just made another video based on a problem I have with the pop up waste in one of my bathrooms...mate, you've gotta be psychic. Bloody top video as well.
Lol , very common household issue. I’m trying to cover all the common issue people face so they can repair it themselves and save some money. I’m glad it will come in handy for you 👍👍👍👍

Awesome Bill, I'm an OG from your other channel good to see you are doing well. Cheers mate.
Glad to see your still hanging around, much appreciated 👍👍👍
HI there, did you ever get round to making a video showing how to change the whole pop up waste please? The piston has corroded in mine, i think from ussing drain unblocker fluid! So I don't have the piston anymore, just a hole ☹. Thanks for the making this channel though, lots of great tips, and loads of things I fix round the gouse now 👍
Thank you Bill, your a great help. I can't afford a plumber, but I can DIY.
You’re very welcome 👍
Thanks, you have saved my time :)
Really handy vid, thanks. How do you replace the piston if the screw is broken and the piston is in 2 halves?
thanks dude!
Thank u so much
Lifesaver!
👍👍. Thank you
May I suggest you do a demo video of installment of window air conditioner brackets,
Perfect 👍
👍👍
In the UK, we call that a click clack waste, a pop up waste being the mixers that have a rod at the back of the tap ;)
Hi! Wondering if you have any content on how to snake the drain with a pop up waste? Should I remove the piston first?
Thanks dude. For once I didn't have to bug my husband.
No problem 👍
I cant budge the mechanism with wrench or pliers. Any suggestions on how I can get the old one out?
Any tips if unscrewing is quite stiff /doesn't with with a glove?
Hey Bill, I was wondering if you know how to paint a concrete ceiling in a condo building. Long story short, I had some black mold growing on the ceiling around the windows of my unit. I cleaned the mold using a mold remover and then to remove the stain scrubbed the ceiling and have exposed the concrete a little bit. I now want to paint it. Can I directly paint the exposed concrete or do I need to first put some "mud" on the ceiling and then paint. Thanks.
Hi, depends on the texture/finish on the concrete. Generally concrete paint is self priming so adhesion shouldn’t be an issue. If you have removed some of the finished material from the concrete you may have to patch it. What product you use would depend on the existing finish you have.
Hello Bill. I've been scrolling through your videos, do you have one on how to fix a noisy washer whilst spinning please x
Unfortunately not 👍
this is nuts crazy, the plug in 2nd bathroom jammed 1 hour ago and you put this up, and I am not the only one this has happened to. OK question thought, what can cause them to jam?
Lol, perfect timing. Could be many reasons for it not working. Anything from chemicals down the drain to general wear and tear. The good news is that it’s cheap and easy to resolve 👍👍👍
fixed, one happy chappy, thanx to this vid
Hi! Where can I buy the parts? Thank you so much!
Hi Bill, I have accidentally corroded the pop up drain and the circular chrome ring around. Is the circular flat chrome disc changeable as well? Basically the water mixed to bleach did not go away and stayed five days. (I forgot to drain the water amd bleach).
Hi, you can replace the whole pop up waste. 👍
What if I can’t turn it to the left and it’s gone too far down/ stuck too hard? I’ve tried plunger and it won’t work.
i was able to undo the stuck but i cant remove it... no matter how much i twist... pls advise
What do you do if the screw has broken / come undone and the piston comes out without the casing?
Most probably time for a complete replacement. 👍
Mine pops up and down but noticed when it's down and filling up the water slowly runs away.
Any tips, mine will not move even with the rubber gloves. 🥴😭
2:57
Satisfying
What if the cap itself is stuck???
🙏🙏🙏
Mine won’t stay down. How do I fix that?
Most new bathrooms have this options now
mine was so bad i had to bust out my drill and drill a hole into the cap
great, but useless if you can't actually unscrew the top off.
These things get on my nerves; they’re always full of crud, and just plain nasty. I just take the whole apparatus out, and use a simple plug and chain.
Pop up waste. Oh didn’t know waste went down the bathroom sink. I’d figure anything that’s titled waste and uses a sink would be in the kitchen. Do you usually drain waste down the bathroom sink. That’s England. Any country that has the word Gland in it. Makes you question.
Worst piece of crap invented with all lime in uk water they jam up i just removed top bought push in type from screw fix works evertime won't fail like these pieces of rubbish ,and had few gave up on pop ups useless
They are a bad design total rubbish
Dude, you talk way too much
