Sink InstallLeaky drains are common in basic sink repair work, yet easily handled. The very first thing you'll need to do is find where the leak is coming from. To do this, let water range from the faucet into the sink. Ensure you have a container positioned 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 the couplings in the drain with the leakage. If this doesn't resolve the issue, attempt cleaning up the pipeline threads and replacing the gasket.
