I just installed a new vanity, but had to move everything over by about a half inch for some tile work. Now the p trap doesn’t reach. The typical p trap seems to be about 3.5 inches from the center of the incoming diameter (sink drain) to the center of the outgoing diameter (going up to connect to the pipe). I need a p trap that is about 4 inches center-to-center. I’m trying to avoid those flexible adaptors. Can I buy p traps that have a little more span?

Question for Montgomery County, Tx.
is there a code requirement for how far a p-trap must be
located away from a shower base if mounted underneath a
concrete slab in a non-incorporated area of the county?
Is it only required to be level? In other words, can the p-trap be installed
10 ft away from the base to be effective as long as there is a graduated slope
from the elbow under the base to the p-trap? thanks in advance for the answer!

In reply to Richard M.. You can reduce the size by using PVC adapter to transform 2" to 1.5" pipe, and then connect the swing trap or swap it if you would like to. But you will have to measure how much you will have to cut the glued portion to make it clean to begin with. If it's too short after the cut, you will have a risk of being empty handed.

Hello! I am doing a bathroom remodel and learning a lot about how everything in the bathroom works, sometimes the hard way! My current dilemma is the vanity p trap needs to be replaced with one that is a bit longer to reach the new sink, however it seems the current trap is made of 2″ PVC and is glued. I am would like to replace that with a 1.5″ swing type trap which will reach the sink, but of course I can’t just swap it out. Is there a way to replace the glued trap with a screw on type, or do I have to cut the old one and re-glue in another 2″ trap?
Thanks for any suggestions!

I also wondered if the split can be repaired by using PVC all purpose cement. I have already tried super glue and it worked wonderfully until I tighten the p trap back onto the plumbing under the bathroom sink then it split again.
