Many thanks Al.
Best person to watch and learn from !!
Thanks a lot.
Have used a seal kit in the past called "basin mate". Only a couple of quid. Works brilliantly every time. Thanks for the video Al.
Great tip! Thanks Steve.
Brillilliant info and just the video I need as my sink in wetroom needs a new push down plug hole fitted as other one is all scratched etc anyway thanks hope you and your wife enjoy your weekend cheers 👍😁 love these diy videos you both do fantastic stuff!
Thanks very much Maria.
Great video. Instead of using the grips to stop the waste turning when tightening the back nut, you can use a long screwdriver inserted through the top of the waste to hold against the turning. This is especially useful when changing the waste when the basin is all plumbed in and ensures the the waste overflow aperture stays aligned with the waste outlet in the basin. Keep posting your great how to videos.
Great tip! Thanks DG.
Great stuff
You nicely explained everything including old method also, wonderful thanks a lot
You are most welcome
Never done one yet with just the washers that hasn’t leaked!....... plumbers mait & a poly washer all day for me 👍🏻
These ones seem pretty good.
Guarantee doing it this way water will leak from the overflow. You need to use plumber mate around the bottom or wrap PTFE tape round thread where nut goes on, otherwise water will leak down the thread.
As a DIYer I have used plumbers mait as it makes it easy to change the waste in future times without the grief of having to remove silicone.
I always used plumbers mait before the advent of these little gems.
great video - simple but effective
Thanks 👍
Thanks for the demonstration and explanation D. Great video.
Glad it was helpful!
Nice simple stuff but explains well - thanks.
You're welcome!
Plumber mate is the answer al enjoyed the video.
Thanks Ratch.
Would have loved to see you taking an old one out. It’s a job I need to do soon.
I have done many in the past.
dereton33 that’s the problem. It’s my first and I’m not sure what to expect.
By the way, by 8 year old daughter loves watching your videos with me. Maybe a plumber in the making. Keep up the great videos.
Excellent video. Thank you
No worries
great instruction as usual...I'm about to replace one in a downstair toilet where the tilers used to clean the grout of tools. hope it comes out easily.. PS do these wastes come in a standard length.. i see diameter dimensions on screwfix and toolstation websites but not length. house is 20yrs old
No they are not 😒😒.. just took the whole thing out and tried to fit it... the waste pipe plastic nut got up to the plastic waste nut but it butts it eventually.. my sink waste is 88mm long and the one i bought is 79mm. back to the drawing board.. it it not usable till i fix it now. Hmmm
Nothing is unerversal
my kitchen sink waste seems to be leaking i bought few wraps of plumbers tape around it and seems to hve solved the problem not sure why it was leaking should it have had some thing in it any way?
A rubber seal or some plumbers mait.
lol - if you use the washers that came with the waste, you'd better put a basin underneath to catch the leaking water.
Ha ha yes 😄
I always enjoy your videos. I was wondering though, doesn't the 2 spaces in the waste have to line up with the overflow holes in the sink?
That is correct. This sink shown does not have that.
thanks for that demonstration, the one i have has washers supplied, is it ok to apply Plumbers mait also?
excellent videos to assist people like me who if there is a wrong way to do something i will immediatley find it
No either use one or the other, personally speaking use the plumbers mait.
Always throw away those washer and use a basin mate seal kit
I have never had any problems with the supplied washers.
Yep I second that use these every time easy fit never leak £1.99 @ Screwfix part no 8795R
Just fitted a new click clack waste. Without the stopper it opens and closes ok. When stopper fitted ot sticks down below surface when pressed and stays there. Any ideas whats wrong. 4:31
Wrong size for sink.
Cheers, I thought they were all standard
Great video, shame they dont make these washers for all sizes, is there any chance you could do a video specifically on plumbers mait please? Would help a lot as i cant find anyone doing a video actually using Plumbers Mait and U.K based. Would be brilliant if you could thank you.
Will do Sean.
@@dereton33 Fantastic, cant wait...thank you so much.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Great video thank you but when I look at mine there is no nut holding it in place underneath. I assume it has to be undone from the plug side? Do I need a tool for that? It’s a slotted waste
It must be one that has a screw through from the top. Just undo that.
@@dereton33 thank you but I don't see any screw looking down from the top
Can I ask a daft question? What are the two holes on either side above the thread for? Is that type only for certain sinks ? Thanks
Slotted for basin with overflow and Solid for basin
without overflow. line up slot on waste with slot on
basin so water through oflow can drain away.
@@raptor4725 Does the overflow line up with the holes when you locate it into the basin or do you just mean the hole at the top of the basin for overflow? Thanks
@@amac1657 line up slot in the basin waste thread
with the similar shaped slot in the inside of the
basin waste hole-letterbox shape, you can hold
in place with screwdriver while you tighten up
back nut.
@@raptor4725 Thank you will give this a go👍🏼
Thanks Raptor.
I noticed the fitting has a hole in the side (for the overflow?). Does this have to be lined up with anything; perhaps it depends on the basin? Thanks, great video, much appreciated. :-)
edit: What water is the washer at the base of the unit sealing against? Is it only the water from the overflow?
The water as it flows down from the basin and the overflow. The slot in the waste has to be lined up with the basin overflow.
Would you be able to do a replacement of a bath overflow? Apparently ours is a cheap nasty one which helped cause the minor leak that went down to the kitchen.
Hi Steve I have done one of those already.
@@dereton33 I'll have to take a look then :)
Hi Al, I need to remove an old corroded brass basin waste but seen no info yet. its been on around 40 years so expecting problems. Any advice please ?
You will find you may have to saw it off.
@@dereton33
The Polaris locking nut came off easily but trying to prize out top part of waste without cracking the basin.
(Plastic not Polaris 🙄
😁👍🏾
Thanks.
Why not just use a bead of silicone. Belts and braces.
Hate that stuff. Hell to get it back out if you wanted to change it later.
@@dereton33 when it's time to change the waste it's time to change the wash hand basin 😂
