Sink Installation ServicesDripping drains prevail in standard sink repair, yet easily handled. The very first thing you'll have to do is discover where the leakage is originating from. To do this, let water range from the faucet into the sink. Ensure you have a bucket positioned to catch water. Shine a flashlight onto the pipelines, and wrap a paper towel around each one to figure out the location of the leak. Next, tighten up the couplings in the drain with the leakage.
