Leaky Bathroom Drains

Sink InstallationLeaky drains are common in standard sink repair, yet quickly handled. The first thing you'll need to do is discover where the leakage is coming from. To do this, let water range from the faucet into the sink. Ensure you have a bucket positioned to capture water. Shine a flashlight onto the pipelines, and cover a paper towel around every one to figure out the location of the leakage. Next, tighten up the couplings in the drainpipe with the leak.
