SkyofFire Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 My cat squashed my bathroom sink plug into the sink hole and it's jammed. I can't get it out myself - it's properly jammed - but it's such a small job I don't want to bother any plumbers with it. Can anyone recommend someone I can ask to help with it?Thanks.

DulwichFox Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 You could try drilling a small hole in it and then prise it out with a small screwdriver or other implement.

Tradesman32 Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Do not do what DF says. What use is a plug with a hole in it?There is a trap where the water drains to that can be taken apart easily. You will then be able to use a screw driver to push the plug out of position from below. Just google how to un screw a pea trap or a bottle trap.

So you don't have to take your trap apart if your plug gets stuck again.Not sure how your cat was able to press your plug in so hard. ?DulwichFox Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/54920-someone-to-get-plug-out-of-sink-hole/#findComment-827198 Share on other sites More sharing options...
