Sink Installation ServicesDripping drains prevail in fundamental sink repair, yet easily handled. The first thing you'll have to do is find where the leak is coming from. To do this, let water range from the faucet into the sink. Make certain you have a container placed to capture water. Shine a flashlight onto the pipes, and wrap a paper towel around each one to figure out the location of the leakage. Next, tighten up the couplings in the drain with the leakage. If this doesn't resolve the issue, attempt cleaning up the pipe threads and replacing the gasket. To do this, you'll need to remove the sink basket from the basin, utilizing a wrench to loosen the nuts. Keep the basin in place with a screwdriver or a set of pliers in the crosspiece.

Pay unique attention to the rubber seal. If you have to change the seal or stopper, it's a basic matter of following the maker's guidelines. Otherwise, soak the stopper in the cleaning solution, reassemble the pivot rod and clevis, and test to see if it's working.
