Sink InstallationLeaky drains are common in fundamental sink repair, yet easily dealt with. The first thing you'll have to do is discover where the leak is originating from. To do this, let water range from the faucet into the sink. Make sure you have a container positioned to capture water.

If this does not resolve the issue, attempt cleaning up the pipe threads and replacing the gasket.
