Sink InstallLeaking drains are common in basic sink repair, yet easily handled. The first thing you'll have to do is discover where the leak is coming from. To do this, let water run from the faucet into the sink. Make sure you have a bucket placed to catch water. Shine a flashlight onto the pipes, and wrap a paper towel around each one to identify the place of the leakage. Next, tighten up the couplings in the drain with the leak. If this doesn't solve the problem, attempt cleaning up the pipe threads and replacing the gasket. To do this, you'll have to detach the sink basket from the basin, utilizing a wrench to loosen the nuts. Keep the basin in location with a screwdriver or a set of pliers in the crosspiece.

Sink Replacement

Pay special focus on the rubber seal. If you need to change the seal or stopper, it's an easy matter of following the manufacturer's instructions. Otherwise, soak the stopper in the cleansing solution, reassemble the pivot rod and clevis, and test to see if it's working.
