A bathroom sink stopper that will not hold water or will not open is a worn pop-up assembly. Here is how Euless homeowners can replace it.
How it works
The pop-up stopper is linked by a rod under the sink to the lift handle. When the rod or the stopper wears, the drain either leaks around the stopper or stops moving.
The common failures
A stopper that sinks or will not stay up is usually a loose or worn linkage. A drain that leaks when closed is a worn stopper seal or a bad fit in the drain body.
The replacement
The job means removing the old drain body and stopper, cleaning the sink opening, and seating a new assembly with fresh plumber's putty and a gasket underneath. The linkage is reattached and adjusted.
Doing it without leaks
The seal between the drain flange and the sink is where DIY installs leak. hard water is common, and summer heat and shifting soils put pressure on underground lines In Euless, a pro sets it evenly so water stays in the sink, not under it.
