I removed the screw cap off of the cleanout and there is plug inside. How do I remove this plug in order to access the cleanout?
I have a clog somewhere in my pipes causing my kitchen sink to back up. I tried plunging and lye with no luck. I ran a 25’ snake from under the sink and that didn’t do the trick either. I assume the snake isn’t long enough, or somehow it is making a wrong turn. So, I went into the crawl space under my house to run the snake through the clean out. When I removed the screw cap, there was a plug inside. How do I remove this plug to get access to the cleanout? Do I have to punch or cut it out?
Thanks for the help!
