Howdoi?
I could do with some advice please.
My bath has an overflowand plug, which lifts when you turn a handle. Not particularly unusual, I know.
The handle has stopped twisting, meaning I can’t lift theplug. For a long time the handle didn’t lower the plug (I just pushed it down)but now it won’t go up either.
I’ve unscrewed and removed the handle and tried to turn thebar that the handle turns, but it only rotates about an 8[SUP]th[/SUP] of afull circle. I have tried a bit of force but it won’t go any further. I couldgive it a fair bit of force, but might break it!
Do any of you have any ideas what has gone wrong? Any suggestions?Should I take the overflow off? Should I check the cable? If do how? So manyquestions.
Cheers,
Dave
