Sink Installation ServicesDripping drains are common in fundamental sink repair work, yet quickly dealt with. The first thing you'll need to do is find where the leakage is originating from. To do this, let water run from the faucet into the sink. Make certain you have a pail positioned to catch water. Shine a flashlight onto the pipes, and wrap a paper towel around every one to figure out the location of the leakage. Next, tighten up the couplings in the drainpipe with the leakage. If this does not fix the problem, try cleaning up the pipeline threads and changing the gasket. To do this, you'll need to remove the sink basket from the basin, using a wrench to loosen up the nuts.
