How To Remove A Bathroom Sink Pop Up Drain

Removing a bathroom sink pop-up drain is a relatively simple task that can be completed in a few minutes with the right tools. Follow these steps to remove your pop-up drain:

1. Gather your tools. You will need a pair of pliers, a screwdriver, and a bucket or bowl to catch any water that may drain out.

2. Turn off the water supply to the sink. This is usually done by turning the handles on the water supply valves located under the sink.

3. Open the drain stopper. This will allow any water in the sink to drain out.

4. Remove the drain stopper. This is usually done by unscrewing the stopper from the drain body.

5. Remove the pop-up drain assembly. This is usually done by unscrewing the drain body from the sink.

6. Clean the drain body and the sink. Remove any debris or build-up from the drain body and the sink.

7. Reassemble the pop-up drain assembly. Screw the drain body back into the sink, and then screw the drain stopper back into the drain body.

8. Turn on the water supply to the sink. Check for any leaks around the drain assembly.
