    Leaky p trap connection
    How do I fix a leaky p-valve connection? All parts are pvc, and the screwing part that attaches the p trap to the pipe coming from the drain is leaking on the underside. Can I do this myself? What supplies do I need? Thanks!

    Thanks for the picture - the coupling nut is where the leak is on the tailpiece side. Do I need to put anything on the threads or should they be completely clean?
