My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

slow vessel sink drain

18 years ago

Hello!

I need help!

I have just installed a vessel sink (no overflow) and have replaced my pipes with new pvc pipes. Nothing is clogged but the drain is so SLOW! If I leave the water on for the amount of time it takes to wash my hands...it looks like the sink might fill up and overflow onto the counter.

If I remove the pipes below...the water drains quickly!

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make it drain quicker?
