Leaky Bathroom Drains

Sink InstallLeaking drains are common in standard sink repair work, yet easily dealt with. 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. Make sure you have a container positioned to capture water. Shine a flashlight onto the pipes, and cover a paper towel around every one to determine the location of the leak. Next, tighten the couplings in the drain with the leakage. If this does not solve the problem, try cleaning the pipeline threads and changing the gasket. To do this, you'll need to separate the sink basket from the basin, utilizing a wrench to loosen the nuts. Keep the basin in location with a screwdriver or a set of pliers in the crosspiece.

Sink Replacement
