Sink InstallDripping drains are common in standard sink repair work, yet easily dealt with. The very first thing you'll need to do is discover where the leak is coming from. To do this, let water range 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 every one to figure out the place of the leakage. Next, tighten up the couplings in the drainpipe with the leakage. If this doesn't solve the problem, try cleaning the pipeline threads and replacing the gasket.
