Hi I'm new here so go easy on me. I don't know any of the techical jargon so i will do my best please bare with me here! So.. I have 2 problems.
1) for my bathroom sink we have a black drain pipe coming out of the wall that connects obviously to the outside world to drain our water from the sink. This pipe has no threads on it, its just a pipe. I dont know if i am missing a part or what but i can't connect any p traps or anything to it. Just a drain pipe sticking out the wall.
2) this pipe measures 2 1/2 inches in diameter. All p traps and adapters go up to 2 inches max and standard p traps are 1 1/4 or 1 1/2 inches. Again i feel like maybe im missing something from drain pipe to ptrap that i need but i have no idea what im doing here.
Any advice or clarification on the names of these parts is helpful. I haven't had a bathroom sink since i moved in a year ago because plumbers can be expensive and i didn't think i was going to have this many problems.
Thanks for any advice !!
