Signs Your Sink Needs Attention
Addressing these issues quickly can prevent bigger problems.
Dripping Under the Sink
Any moisture in the cabinet below your sink indicates a leak from the drain, P-trap, or water supply lines that needs immediate repair.
Slow Draining
A sink that drains slowly is a clear sign of a partial clog from food, grease, or hair that will only get worse over time.
Low Water Pressure
If the low pressure is isolated to one sink, it often points to a clogged aerator or a problem with the faucet's supply lines.
Cracks or Rust
Visible cracks in a porcelain sink or rust around the drain are signs that the fixture is deteriorating and should be replaced.
When to Call a Professional
For any leak under the sink or for installing a new sink, a professional is highly recommended. A proper, watertight seal between the sink and the countertop is crucial to prevent long-term cabinet and floor damage.

Sink FAQs
Why does my kitchen sink smell bad?
This is usually caused by food particles trapped in the P-trap or garbage disposal. A professional drain cleaning can thoroughly remove the source of the odor.
What is a P-trap and why is it important?
The P-trap is the U-shaped pipe under your sink. Its job is to hold a small amount of water that acts as a seal, preventing sewer gases from coming up through the drain.
