Sink RepairLeaking drains are common in fundamental sink repair work, yet quickly dealt with. The first thing you'll have to do is discover where the leakage is coming from. To do this, let water range from the faucet into the sink. Make certain you have a bucket positioned to capture water. Shine a flashlight onto the pipes, and wrap a paper towel around every one to identify the area of the leak. Next, tighten the couplings in the drain with the leak.
