Sink Repair

Fixing leaks and clogs.

What sink repair involves

Sink repair fixes clogs, leaks and damage at the sink, from the faucet down through the drain and trap. The most common problems are slow or stopped drains from grease, hair and debris, leaks under the cabinet at the trap or supply lines, gurgling from trapped air, and chips or cracks in the basin.

A leak under the sink can ruin a cabinet floor quietly, so check for damp wood or a musty smell.

Mesquite Plumbing clears sink drains, replaces leaking traps, supply lines and shut-off valves, repairs faucets, and tells you when a cracked sink should be replaced rather than patched.

A gurgling sink can mean a partial clog or a venting problem in the drain. Both are fixable, and a plumber can tell which one you have in a few minutes.

Commercial customers with break-room or restaurant sinks get the same service, and we work around your business hours whenever the repair can wait a few hours.

Questions

Sink Repair FAQs

Why is my sink not draining?

A clogged sink drain can result from various issues, including solidified grease and fats, harmful chemicals or cleaners, hair buildup, dirt and debris accumulation, blocked external drains, or a damaged or broken P-trap. Often, it’s caused by inappropriate food items or debris being sent down the drain. If cleaning or unclogging doesn’t resolve the issue, reach out to our plumbers for professional assistance.

Can you tell me how to fix a cracked sink?

The repair of a cracked sink depends on the extent of the damage. For minor, hairline cracks or chips, you can follow these steps: 1. Clean the sink. 2. Sand the damaged area if necessary. 3. Apply a repair epoxy. 4. Allow it to dry and sand to blend it. For more severe cracks or damage near the base of your sink, it’s advisable to contact our plumbing professionals. We’ll ensure your sink is repaired correctly and recommend replacement if necessary.

What is the best kitchen sink material?

The best kitchen sink material depends on your unique requirements and personal preferences. Some popular options include: Stainless Steel: Hygienic, rust-resistant, stain-resistant, durable, and cost-effective. Ceramic: Durable, heat-resistant, stain-resistant, and impact-resistant. Marble: Combines luxurious design with durability. Composite: Offers various design choices, durability, and resistance to stains, acid, heat, and bacteria. Copper: Known for its antibacterial properties, durability, rust resistance, and beautiful design. These are just a few examples of the materials available for sinks. Trust our sink installers to guide you in making the best decisions based on your home’s needs, available space, and budget.

How long do sinks last?

The lifespan of a sink depends on factors such as the material and the level of maintenance. In general, most sinks can last anywhere from 15 to 30 years. Sink replacements are often prompted by aesthetic considerations, but they may also be required due to frequent repairs, persistent leaks, or significant rust or damage.
