It depends on the source of your leak. It could be the drain pipe or the water supply line. Either way, locate the leak & tighten the nut. If this doesn't work then replace the washer, both water supply lines and drain pipes have washers, take it with you to the hardware store. To replace the washer on the water line, turn off the valve. How-ever if the leak is from the bottom of the faucet you would need a faucet wrench because it's nearly inaccessible, in which case you need a landlord or a plumber. Good luck.

Well the first thing you can do is turn off the water...the knob under your sink till you can figure out what is wrong..you might just need to tighten you plumbing...or replace...some parts. With the water turned off....unscrew everything take the parts to Home Depot...show them what you need to replace...Make sure they know you are in need of all their help so they will give you exactly what you need...plumbers glue and such...then just go back and put everything back the way it was before. Take a picture if you need to so you can remember. Lots of luck.

You have to determine the source of the leak. Is it coming from the hot or cold water pipes, or is it coming from your drain pipe? If one of the water pipes is split or has a small hole you are better off calling a plumber. Good luck.

thought i could throw my hat in the hoop with the aid of asserting, the reason they spend plenty on plastic surgical operation is the medical doctors charge way too plenty, and that they does no longer want plastic surgical operation if society wasn't so judgmental on how people look. We as a society have created this situation alongside with many others, and once you talk approximately how plenty you have given and boast approximately it, you have in basic terms have been given your advantages as Christianity teaches, so no i does no longer shop on with on your footsteps, this is sin in accordance to the Bible. On a fact experience i will tell if the wealthy or nicely to do helped the undesirable and needy, we would all in basic terms be mediocre, and that's extremely like communism, some thing i'm to no longer mad approximately, yet wait you probably did no longer say the undesirable could ought to artwork we would in basic terms supply it to them and help them out. i think of we already try this, its called social tips and our taxes hide that fee alongside with generating jobs for social workers. So we are already giving to the undesirable, we in basic terms are no longer boasting on the subject of the forged we are doing. actual charity comes from the midsection and is not any longer measured with the aid of the media and what others think of, this is finished in secret so which you do no longer humiliate the needy or crown the giver.
