Leaky Bathroom Drains

Sink InstallLeaky drains are common in basic sink repair, yet quickly dealt with. The very first thing you'll need to do is discover where the leak is originating from. To do this, let water run from the faucet into the sink. Make sure you have a container positioned to capture water. Shine a flashlight onto the pipelines, and cover a paper towel around every one to identify the area of the leak. Next, tighten up the couplings in the drainpipe with the leak. If this doesn't resolve the issue, try cleaning up the pipeline threads and replacing 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 set of pliers in the crosspiece. Scrub off all the old putty, then insert the new gasket, followed by the sink basket.
