Leaky Bathroom Drains

Sink RepairDripping drains are common in standard sink repair, yet quickly dealt with. The first thing you'll need to do is discover where the leakage is coming from. To do this, let water run from the faucet into the sink. Make sure you have a bucket positioned to catch water. Shine a flashlight onto the pipelines, and wrap a paper towel around every one to determine the area of the leak. Next, tighten the couplings in the drainpipe with the leak. If this doesn't resolve the problem, attempt cleaning the pipeline threads and changing the gasket. To do this, you'll have to detach the sink basket from the basin, using a wrench to loosen the nuts. Keep the basin in place with a screwdriver or a pair of pliers in the crosspiece. Scrub off all the old putty, then place the brand-new gasket, followed by the sink basket.
