I live in a NYC apartment and I had a leak in the kitchen drain pipe a few days ago. The super changed the pipe, which dropped from the sink 4"s or so than went into a 90 and another 90 before going into a S and down 4 floors to the street. The pipe was replaced in almost the same way except the 4' drop from the sink is now a 1" drop and the sink does not drain well. Is the problem that the drop was almost eliminated? Does the 4" drop need to be there? Help please.

I had NO problem draining before the super did the work. What I need to know is should there be a drop of some kind coming down from the sink? The drain pipe bends 90 degrees immediately after coming from the sink. Thanks for the help
