I recently refurbished the powder room (1/2 bath) in the main hall of our house. Everything went well until I had to deal with the pedestal sink. After some struggle, I finally got the sink attached properly to the wall and the pedestal bolted to the floor. However, after I turned on the water, the drain pipe started to leak. I had had to cut the drain pipe twice to re-install a longer piece of PVC pipe each time, because I mis-estimated the length needed to get to the drain pipe on the sink from the trap coming out of wall. I am going to check to make sure all of the connections are tightened, but I have two questions:
1) Is there a tool that would allow me to tighten the faucet fittings for incoming hot and cold water from underneath with having to take the sink off, since it is such restricted space, and
2) I really clipped a piece of PVC pipe short (about 1/8 to 1/4 of an inch) before I glued it between two PVC connectors. This left very little PVC pipe to apply glue to and I'm wondering is there some way I could "wrap" the two connectors containing the small piece of PVC pipe by gluing another piece of larger PVC pipe around them.
Thanks for your help!
