How We Perform Efficient Sink Drain Replacements
Before we start the sink drain replacement process, we ensure that you have the right drain assembly replacement. Your drain assembly should match the exact size of the old one to ensure a water-tight fit. We'll take the measurements and help you find the right part for your sink.
Once you've chosen your replacement, we're ready to begin the sink repair. First, we'll remove the old drain, taking time to inspect the P-trap pipe and determine if it needs to be replaced as well. This is crucial when the pipe is made of metal, as metal pipes can rust and corrode over time. If your drain has a metal P-trap, we recommend having us replace it with a PVC pipe to avoid future issues.
Note: We offer many different drain options to ensure the perfect fit. For example, you can choose to upgrade your sink drain to an all-in-one stopper with a removable strainer basket. There are other useful options for bathroom sink drains that can help catch foreign objects before they form a drain clog.
Sink Repair FAQs
Does a plumber fix a sink?
When it comes to fixing sinks, there’s no better professional than a plumber. Sinks are fragile, and repairing them requires a careful hand and intimate knowledge of how plumbing systems work. Here are a few types of sink repairs that plumbers can carry out:
1. Detecting and Repairing Leaks
When your sink starts leaking, a plumber can quickly identify the source of the problem and fix it efficiently. Leaky faucets, drainpipes, and faulty seals can all be repaired by a skilled plumber.
2. Unclogging Sink Drains
If your sink drain is clogged and water refuses to go down, a plumber is the first person you should call. Using specialized tools, they can remove any blockages and restore your sink’s functionality.
3. Repairing Sink Fixtures
Over time, sink fixtures such as faucets, handles, or knobs may wear out or become damaged. Plumbers can repair or replace these fixtures, ensuring your sink looks like new and works perfectly.
4. Installing New Sinks
If you're renovating your bathroom or kitchen, a plumber can install a new sink for you while ensuring proper alignment and secure connections. They’ll also offer advice on selecting the best sink for your needs.
5. Addressing Low Water Pressure
If your sink’s water pressure drops, it could indicate a bigger plumbing issue. A plumber will investigate the underlying cause, which could range from sediment buildup to a defective valve, and remedy the situation.
6. Replacing Sinks
In some cases, a sink may be beyond repair and require replacement. Plumbers can assist in selecting a suitable replacement sink and handle the installation process with precision.
7. Preventive Maintenance
Regular maintenance is crucial to ensure your sink remains in optimal condition. Plumbers can inspect your sink, check for any potential issues, and perform preventive maintenance to avoid future problems.
