    Crack above sanitary tee. Non-destructive solution?
    Ok, so my kitchen sink plumbing consists of three tees connected to each other. The bottom tee is the snake access, and is plugged. The second one goes into this one, and is connected to the garbage disposal waste line. The third connects to this, and is the waste line for the sink. I'm assuming the piping above is just venting, but its also underneath a window. How can I fix this without ripping out my cabinets, granite, etc?

    First clean off the crack, inside as well as out, and u7se ABS primer on it filling the crack. Now load the crack up with ABS Cement. Let it set up and load the crack up with cement again. Do not drain any water past the repair until it sets up and cures overnight. You know the only other option would be to tear it all out and replace from below the cleanout. Good luck, Tom
