Click clack waste that won't click? Basin plug stuck down or won't seal? Quick repair or replacement to get your basin working properly again.

### That Annoying Basin Plug That Won't Work

You know the drill: push it once, nothing. Push it harder, still stuck. Or it pops up but won't stay down to hold water. Or it **stays down but won't pop back up**.

Click clack wastes are brilliant when they work, absolutely infuriating when they don't.

> 💡 **Pro tip:** Most click clack failures are caused by hair and gunk jamming the mechanism. Regular cleaning extends their life significantly.

Good to Know

> 🏠 **Old Exeter houses?** Basin wastes on older ceramic basins can be seized solid. Sometimes needs persuasion (read: force) to remove without cracking the basin. I'll assess before starting if it looks risky. **Multiple bathrooms?** If one click clack's failed, others are probably the same age and might go soon. Happy to check them all while I'm there. **Getting a new basin soon?** Might be worth waiting rather than spending money on fixing the old waste. I'll give you an honest opinion on whether it's worth repairing.

Frequently Asked Questions about Click clack waste repair in Tiverton

What's a click clack waste and why does it stop working?

It's that push-down basin plug that pops up and down when you press it. They stop working when the spring mechanism gets gunked up with hair and soap scum, or when the seal perishes. Common problem in every bathroom.

Can you fix it or does it need replacing?

Depends what's wrong. If it's just stuck or stiff, I can often clean and service it. If the mechanism's broken or the seal's gone, I'll replace it with a new one. I carry standard chrome ones in the van.

Will you have the right replacement part?

I carry standard chrome click clack wastes which fit most basins. If yours is a fancy finish or unusual size, I can usually get it same-day from the plumber's merchant. I'll let you know when I see it.

How long does it take?

Usually about 30 minutes. Most of that's working under the basin to disconnect and reconnect the waste. The actual click clack swap takes 5 minutes.

My basin drains really slowly - will fixing the click clack help?

If the plug isn't sealing properly, yes. But slow draining is often a blocked trap or pipework. I'll check that while I'm under there and let you know what's needed. No extra charge to diagnose it.
