Sink Installation ServicesDripping drains are common in standard sink repair, yet easily dealt with. The very first thing you'll have to do is find where the leakage is originating from. To do this, let water range from the faucet into the sink. Make sure you have a container positioned to catch water. Shine a flashlight onto the pipes, and cover a paper towel around each one to figure out the location of the leakage. Next, tighten up the couplings in the drain with the leakage. If this does not fix the issue, try cleaning the pipe threads and changing the gasket. To do this, you'll have to separate the sink basket from the basin, using a wrench to loosen up the nuts. Keep the basin in place with a screwdriver or a set of pliers in the crosspiece. Scrub off all the old putty, then insert the new gasket, followed by the sink basket.
