Leaking Shower Drain
Oct 5th, 2017, 4:28pm
 
I'm trying to investigate the cause of a leaking shower drain, I think it might be a problem with the join between the strainer body (?) and drain body. How do I remove this part, does it require a specific key/tool? See picture.

anything strong and flat that fits between the lug.

There's a washer under the base that seals it.

Anti clockwise as you look at the pic unscrews it.

You want to try tightening it a tap first.
