How come got plastic bag one?!?!?!?!?

The last time we called a plumber years ago for the same water trap, the plumber pulled out 2 pieces of concrete from the water trap.

I suspect they part time as magicians...

 Those concrete or debris are real, i saw them in the u-shape trap of my house  previously and i had to remove them myself. They are left in the trap by reno contractor or by the builder then when the unit was still under construction.

Typical of jiu hu kias handiwork. All bochap as it’s another guy problem to solve. Mine had it too. Luckily the main con was the one to shell out for the plumber to come and chisel away at the concrete bits in the u pipe.  Watched him sweat for 1hr plus doing it.

How, we are still waiting for the photo of the screw cap.

Ok sigh... i try to loosen with strap wrench and still seems jam. I think they spray silicone on it... I guess must call plumber?

Ok never mind, I loosen it finally. Only problem... I realise my replacement flush didnt come with rubber o ring and if I put the old one back it still leaks... 

Must go shopping again

Bring the o ring to the hardware shop. Most have a "case" fill with the different o rings that u need.
