Hi. I am trying to change my p trap. I however can not get the wall pipe to come out like they so easily do in the diy videos. The nut is off. I'm using metal. Any suggestions?

Was there a nut to loosen at the connection at the wall? If not, then you may have a ptrap that is soldered to copper... can only be heated off using a torch.

If you have a soldered trap you could cut the pipe and use a tubular clamp to attach a new ptrap, but it is not an ideal solution.

Back to you...

Yes I got the nut off it looks like the plastic washer fused with everything I tried to saw and scrap off all the plastic but I still cant pull the pipe out its driving me nuts I don't see and sodder marks and I don't own a torch lol

Show us a picture.

I cant at the moment at my other job the tenant wants me back at 10am tomorrow trying to find something that may work if I still cant get it in the morning I will post a pic

Kind a sounds like someone siliconed things together.

You can always use Fernco fitting or similar rubber coupling to join new and old pipe. It is a life saver. It is an easy fix and works all the time.

I may try that. Thanks I am headed to hardware store. Hope I can get it fixed.

Holy crap I did it I feel great! Next I got to buy a cartridge puller see if I can change the washer on the stem. Thanks you!

What do you mean? If you need a cartridge puller you don't have a stem and washer, you need a new cartridge. If you have a stem and washer you don't need a cartridge puller?
Tell us, show us, what you are doing? What kind of faucet, single or two handle? What brand?

here is what i was able to do and it works no leaks had to file the pipe after cutting cuz it was sharp but other than that think it looks pretty good. and hkstroud Obviously I have no ides lol when I start it tomorrow I will let you know im sure i will make a new post thanks yall

DianeCarlton: Glad you managed to finish the job. Hope those Fernco drain couplings helped. Stock up on them, they are a life-saver !
