Sink Installation ServicesDripping drains prevail in fundamental sink repair, yet easily handled. The first thing you'll have to do is discover where the leakage is originating 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 cover a paper towel around every one to identify the area of the leakage. Next, tighten the couplings in the drainpipe with the leak. If this does not fix the problem, attempt cleaning the pipeline threads and replacing the gasket. To do this, you'll have to detach the sink basket from the basin, using a wrench to loosen up the nuts. Keep the basin in place with a screwdriver or a pair of pliers in the crosspiece.

Lastly, discover a porcelain touch-up paint that finest matches your sink's color and apply to the repaired area.
