How To Take The Stopper Out Of Your Bathroom Sink

If you're like most people, you probably don't think about your bathroom sink stopper very often. But if it gets stuck or clogged, it can be a major inconvenience. Fortunately, removing a bathroom sink stopper is usually a quick and easy process. Here are a few simple steps to follow:

1. Turn off the water supply.

The first step is to turn off the water supply to your sink. This will prevent water from leaking out when you remove the stopper. To turn off the water supply, simply locate the shutoff valves under your sink and turn them clockwise.

2. Remove the drain cover.

Once the water supply is turned off, you can remove the drain cover. The drain cover is usually held in place by a few screws. Simply use a screwdriver to remove the screws and then lift the drain cover off.

3. Locate the stopper.

Once the drain cover is removed, you will be able to see the stopper. The stopper is usually located at the bottom of the drain.

4. Remove the stopper.

To remove the stopper, you will need to use a pair of pliers or a wrench. Gently grip the stopper with the pliers or wrench and then turn it counterclockwise. The stopper should come loose after a few turns.

5. Clean the stopper.

Once the stopper is removed, you should clean it. The stopper can become clogged with hair, soap scum, and other debris. To clean the stopper, simply use a toothbrush and some dish soap.
