Sink RepairDripping drains prevail in basic sink repair work, yet easily dealt with. The first thing you'll need to do is find where the leakage is originating from. To do this, let water range from the faucet into the sink. Make sure you have a pail placed to catch water.

If this doesn't fix the issue, attempt cleaning the pipe threads and replacing the gasket. To do this, you'll need to separate the sink basket from the basin, using a wrench to loosen the nuts.
