Repairing a bathtub drain does not have to be a hassle and there is no need to call a plumber.  Professional help can be expensive and is absolutely not necessary when you have simple instructions and modern tub repair products at your disposal. You can tackle a tub drain repair with common household tools and a few minutes of your time. 

The first thing to do is identify the type of bathtub drain stopper that you currently have.  Bathtub stoppers include those controlled at the drain or through a trip lever in your overflow plate. The most common styles of bathtub stoppers include :

Stoppers without using a trip lever:

Push Pull – this type of stopper simply pushes down to seal in water or pulls up to drain the tub

Foot Activated – also called a toe-touch, simply step on the stopper to open or close the drain

Lift and Turn – just turn the knob to open or close the tub stopper

Tub Stoppers activated through a trip lever: 

Plunger – simply raise or lower the lever to stop up the water or let it drain

Pop-Up – raise or lower the lever the same as with a plunger style, except the lever controls an additional rocker arm attached to the pop up stopper covering your drain

FixMyDrain.com offers step by step video instruction to show you first hand the easiest way to remove and replace a bathtub stopper. 

Most tub stoppers are easy to remove with only a screwdriver and a pair of pliers if you need them.  Stoppers that are not controlled through a trip lever are a bit easier to remove and replace. If you have a trip lever style of stopper, you’ll need to remove the screws holding in your tub overflow plate and pull the linkage out of the opening.  In some cases with a pop-up controlled through a trip lever, you may need to remove the linkage and pull the stopper out of the drain opening.  

Whatever type of tub stopper you have, replacing it with the SimpliQuick® Tub Fix is the easiest way to a shiny, new bathtub stopper.

When your bathroom sink needs repair, every day is met with frustration.  If your sink drain is stopped up you can’t even brush your teeth without getting irritated. If your sink stopper isn’t working and won’t hold water, you can’t do the simple things you should be able to like hand washing delicate items.  Sometimes, it’s easy to put off a sink repair as the minute we walk away we forget about it, until the next time we need to use it.

If your lavatory drain needs repair, the problem is most often in the sink stopper assembly.  This pop-up stopper is operated by lifting a lever, also called plunger, that typically is located in between two faucets or in the back of a single faucet, on top of the sink.  When you pull up on the plunger, a system of rods and levers moves the stopper down into place. The stopper is sealed with a rubber O-ring to provide a watertight seal.

Simple One Piece Lavatory Sink Solution

A bathroom sink stopper is very much like a bathtub pop-up stopper, which is operated through the bathtub overflow plate.  Moving the lever on the overflow plate moves the stopper up and down just like on the lavatory sink drain. Just like with the bathtub, removing a pop-up stopper can be challenging for one person.  We recommend replacing these pop-up stoppers with an easier, more modern product. 

There is an easier solution for the bathroom sink with the IdealLav™ from Watco, a one-piece sink drain stopper that drops right into place.  The IdealLav™ eliminates the need for one person to connect the top and bottom pieces together which can be challenging with one set of hands. 

Watco is known worldwide for high quality plumbing, sink and bathtub repair products.  The IdealLav™ sink drain repair is a one-piece 8 ½-inch long by 1 ¼-inch diameter lavatory drain with an included grid strainer, which is replaceable for quick maintenance. This is by far the easiest way to install a below the grade internal stopper in your bathroom sink. 

Watco’s IdealLav™ sink drain repair is available in either plastic or cast iron brass and comes in different finish options to match your current décor.  You can’t go wrong with the Watco name and a 5-year limited warranty.
