    Cracked drain trap
    How can I fix the cracked drain trap without having to dig it up? Is there anything I can pour into it to stop it from leaking temporary?

    Dig it up? There are only three traps that install beneath grade. A shower,tub and floor drain. Which one is cracked and how did it get cracked in the first place? Regards, Tom

    I'll add one more question, if it is barried how did you discover the crack, what symptoms appear?

    If it is cracked, it must be replaced. No quick fix here.

    If joker would give us more details we could help but for now this looks like a dead thread.
