Plug stuck down the plug hole!

So the sink has one of those smooth rounded-topped plugs that pops up and down into down the plughole.

When you push the plug down it sits in place, and you release it by pressing it GENTLY again - and it pops up again.

Someone didn't do it GENTLY and it is now stuck in the hole. There is no catch or lever to raise it so I assume there is a busted spring underneath!

It's quite snug in the hole so impossible to prize out. Its a pedestal sink so the base is enclosed.

Any ideas?

Its ok - I fixed it!

And for those with the same issue - those little vacuum suckers you get on things to stick to your bathroom tiles are your best tool!

Ah, well done, OP! That was exactly how I fixed ours when the same/similar happened to me, so was about to recommend itSmile
