Sink Repair
Our
licensed plumbers provide expert sink repair and prompt service. Repairs of the kitchen
sink can include the following common problems:
Leaking
Sink
With age,
the sink in your kitchen may leak. This can be a result of rust, corrosion or
due to deterioration of the seal around the drain, or the edge of the sink. In
addition, the sink drain may leak. Our plumbers can take care of all of this
for you, with sink repair or replacement.
Clogged
Sink Drain
Kitchen
sink clogs are typically due to grease, oil, fat, and food particulates. A
drain screen will prevent food from entering the drain, and using caution will
assist in reducing grease clogs. Never pour grease, fat or oil into a drain,
after they cool pour them into a container and seal. Check with recycling
centers in your area and recycle if possible. Otherwise, place containers with
grease in the trash.
After
pouring cooled grease from cooking utensils, use absorbent paper towels to
clean as much grease as possible before washing.
Leaking
Faucet
A
leaking faucet wastes water and can ruin a sink’s
finish. Contact our plumbers in Arlington, Texas for the repair of leaky faucets today.
Sink
Sprayer Problems
A sink
sprayer typically lasts a long time. The most common problem is due to clogging
of the sprayer’s aerator or diverter valve, due to the minerals in hard water.
Clean the aerator by soaking in vinegar, and brushing gently with a soft brush.
Other sprayer problems can potentially be corrected with the replacement of the
diverter valve, new washers, or a new hose. These tasks are best left to a
plumber.
Sink
Installation
Eventually, all sinks will require
replacement. Sink installation should be provided
by an experienced, licensed plumber to ensure
damage does not occur to your countertop.
