Leaky Bathroom Drains

Sink Repair ServicesLeaky drains are common in standard sink repair, yet easily dealt with. The very first thing you'll have to do is find where the leak is originating from. To do this, let water run from the faucet into the sink. Make sure you have a pail positioned to catch water. Shine a flashlight onto the pipes, and wrap a paper towel around each one to determine the place of the leak. Next, tighten up the couplings in the drainpipe with the leakage.
