Basin Waste

To measure the size of your basin waste in Australia, you will need a measuring tape. First, remove the old waste from your basin. Next, measure the diameter of the hole in the bottom of the basin where the waste was located. This will give you the diameter of the waste required. Alternatively, you can take the old waste to your local hardware store or plumbing supplier to find a replacement that matches the size.

Changing a basin waste can be a relatively straightforward process. Start by turning off the water supply to the basin. Next, remove the old waste by unscrewing it from the bottom of the basin. Make sure to have a bucket or towel handy to catch any water that may be left in the basin. Once the old waste has been removed, clean the area thoroughly and apply a layer of plumber's putty around the bottom of the new waste. Carefully screw the new waste into place, making sure not to overtighten it. Finally, turn the water supply back on and test for any leaks.
