There are several common ways to fix a sink leak:

  1. Replace the O-ring: O-rings are small rubber seals that are found in many areas of the sink, including the faucet and drain. If an O-ring is worn or damaged, it can cause water to leak. To fix this, you can purchase a replacement O-ring and install it.

  2. Replace the washer: Washers are small rubber or plastic discs that are found in the faucet. If a washer is worn or damaged, it can cause water to leak. To fix this, you can purchase a replacement washer and install it.

  3. Tighten connections: If the sink is leaking from the base, it could be caused by loose connections. To fix this, you can turn off the water supply and tighten any loose connections.

  4. Replace the faucet: If the sink is leaking from the faucet, it could be caused by a faulty faucet. To fix this, you can purchase a new faucet and install it.

  5. Check the supply line: The supply line is the hose that brings water to the sink. If the supply line is loose or damaged, it can cause water to leak. To fix this, you will need to turn off the water supply, remove the old supply line and install a new one.

  6. Check the drain: If the sink is leaking from the drain, it could be caused by a faulty drain. To fix this, you can remove the drain and replace it with a new one.
