Very first step in all of plumbing. Cover the drain so screws and such don't fall down the drain. Thank you for the detailed video. Exactly what I needed.

Wow. Literally best video ever. You didn't say a word just fixed it and displayed how easy it is. Rather than talk for 20 mins then fix it. Thank you sir I truly appreciate it.

Best one of the videos on fixing the lever type drain stopper. No BS intros or silly music. Let's the camera linger on the part so you can get oriented. Very nice work Asquaregarden!

@@jaredharris1970 there's a threaded part on the inside of the piece that he pulled out in the video. You have to adjust it to get the bottom piece to block the water coming in at the drain. It's most likely off just enough to let the water in your tub drain.

@@willc2358 This is what I did, at may not work for others. First, remove the lever plate from the tub, two screws. Then, remove the drain trap from under the tub, this unscrews from both ends. Be prepared to have to replace drain parts if they are metal, have been there for years and are rusted out. Next, have a partner push up the broken off plunger piece with a thin rod or mechanic's wire, until you can grab and remove it from the tub opening.

Great video, also fixed it in five minutes for ten dollars, thanks so much

Great how to. Straight to the point, no blah blah blah. 👍

Thanks for this-- Never did this before so when I pulled on the mechanism and the whole thing came out, I didn't see how it would go back in (without having to be re-attached on the inside somehow)-- So apparently the stopper (metal cylinder) just plain drops back into place? I thought something inside fell apart and I was going to have to call a plumber to rip the whole tub out. I will replace the lever tomorrow-- Thanks for helping me de-stress!

Had a tub where the 'stopper' at the end of the linkage wasn't seating/sealing properly and water wouldn't stay in tub. Did all kinds of cleaning (both stopper and drain) but would never hold water. So I finally gave up and replaced drain in tub with that has a 'pop-up' stopper in the drain in the tub and for the overflow hole (where the linkage feeds in with the type of stopper shown in this video) there's just a faceplate with a slot at the bottom to handle any overflow. Just wanted to point out there are other options if this type of drain doesn't work for you.

Wait… so the “pin” that broke off… is that a new pin that has to be purchased separately Or did it come with the new stopper? I’m going to re-watch this video because I’m fixing my stopper tomorrow thanks to you!!! You make me believe I can actually do this myself! 😂 Thank you sooooooooo much for the video! 😊 ♥️

This person makes it look so easy... But mine is fully stuck in there. I don't want to pull too hard, but can't get it out!

If you have the trip lever bucket in place to fill the tub with water, how does the overflow work? It appears to go down the same pipe that is blocked. I’m contemplating removing the bucket and just installing a manual drain.

This was helpful but I have added info. The adjustment is a bit difficult. If you use the hole at the end no problem but if you have to use the mid hole you have to fit it in and adjust it and then cut the end of the hookup flange and adjusting screw because I found that there is no room for the parts to go up into.
