Leaky Bathroom Drains

Sink RepairLeaky drains are common in standard sink repair work, yet quickly dealt with. The first thing you'll need to do is discover where the leakage is originating from. To do this, let water run from the faucet into the sink. Make sure you have a pail placed to capture water. Shine a flashlight onto the pipelines, and cover a paper towel around each one to determine the location of the leak. Next, tighten the couplings in the drain with the leak. If this doesn't solve the issue, try cleaning up 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.
