    Replacement Sink Drain Pipe to Trap Do Not Line Up
    I am preparing to replace my bathroom sink. If the new sink drain pipe and the trap below do not line up is there a flexible connector that will allow the connection to be made without installing new pvc piping below?

    Hi JPK:

    They do make a flexible tailpiece... see picture below. They also make a flexible ptrap... just FYI. These are available at all home improvement stores.

    You will want to purchase the 1.25" tailpiece and may also need to purchase an 1.5" x 1.25" nut and washer.

    Good luck...
