Hi there,
We have an old sink with a corroded/leaking drum trap -- a wall-mounted sink with plumbing exposed.
The drum trap is chrome and our plumber spec'd in his estimate to replace it with a chrome drum trap -- saying it would cost $150.
I am going to do some of the work myself and so trying to find a chrome drum trap and can not find them anywhere... does anyone know of a source?
(Yes, I know that ideally we update to a P trap but this is an antique sink with exposed plumbing—changing the trap would require completely redoing the plumbing in the floor and in Maine replacing an existing drum trap for a repair is allowed; also it was spec'd recommended as the option that makes the most sense for the condition per our licensed plumber.)
Thank you for any recommendations/sources!!
