Sink Repair ServicesLeaking drains are common in fundamental sink repair work, 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 range from the faucet into the sink. Make sure you have a pail positioned to catch water. Shine a flashlight onto the pipes, and wrap a paper towel around each one to identify the location of the leak. Next, tighten up the couplings in the drain with the leakage. If this doesn't solve the problem, attempt cleaning the pipe threads and replacing the gasket. To do this, you'll have to remove the sink basket from the basin, utilizing a wrench to loosen up the nuts. Keep the basin in location with a screwdriver or a pair of pliers in the crosspiece.
