Common Sink Problems and How We Fix Them

Sink issues often start small but can lead to major disruptions if ignored. Here are some frequent problems homeowners face — and why timely repairs matter: 

  • Leaky faucets or drains: If left unchecked, leaks can cause water damage, higher utility bills, and mold.
  • Clogged or slow drains: Often caused by buildup in the pipes, slow drainage can worsen over time and lead to blockages or foul odors.
  • Cracks or corrosion: Visible wear affects your sink's appearance and compromises its structural integrity.
  • Low water pressure: This could signal a deeper issue that stems from hidden pipe damage or valve issues.

Addressing these issues early helps you avoid more costly repairs down the road and keeps your sink functioning smoothly.

Our Sink Repair Services

Sinks function much like machines. They rely on a combination of parts and systems working together to deliver seamless performance. A kitchen sink alone may involve up to six separate components just to operate as expected.

With so many moving parts working together, it's normal for sinks to require occasional maintenance and repair to stay in good working condition. That’s why our sink repair plumbers thoroughly inspect all components of your sink to identify the issue and determine the best long-term solution.

No matter the problem, we can repair all aspects of your sink, including:

Should You Repair or Replace a Broken Sink?

Most sink issues are repairable. If a sink is properly maintained, it can last for years and may only need replacement once a kitchen or bathroom is renovated. However, some instances require a sink to be replaced. If the damage affects functionality or poses long-term risks, sink replacement may be the smarter solution.

Reasons to replace a sink might include:

  • Deep cracks or fractures
  • Corrosion or rust 
  • Stubborn stains that can't be removed
  • Poor fit with the countertop or cabinetry
  • Outdated style or material
  • Kitchen or bathroom remodeling

If you’re replacing a sink, you need the help of a professional from Benjamin Franklin Plumbing. We'll examine your sink, suggest a worthy replacement, and expertly install your new one. With our retrofitting expertise, your new sink will fit flawlessly with existing counters and plumbing.

Sink Repair FAQs

Why is my sink not draining?

Some common reasons why your sink isn’t draining include:

  • Solidified grease and fats
  • Damaging chemicals or cleaners
  • Hair buildup 
  • Dirt and debris buildup
  • Blocked external drains
  • Damaged or broken P-trap 

Most often, the issue is a clog caused by inappropriate food items being sent down the drain. If this isn’t the issue, however, and unclogging or cleaning your drain doesn’t fix your sink, call our plumbers for help

How Do I Fix a Leaky Sink?

If your faucet is leaking, try tightening the fittings and faucet connection first. Next, you can try cleaning the aerator with vinegar. 

If the leak is below the sink, try tightening the fittings below. If this doesn’t work, or you spot any corrosion or damage, it’s likely a larger plumbing issue brewing. Call our experts at your local Benjamin Franklin Plumbing to determine the cause of the leak and provide repair services. 

Can you tell me how to fix a cracked sink?

It depends on how severely cracked the sink is. If it’s a minor, hairline crack or chip:

  1. Clean the sink.
  2. Sand the damaged area if necessary.
  3. Apply a repair epoxy.
  4. Let it dry and sand to blend it.

If you have a more severe crack or damage near the base of your sink, call our plumbing professionals for repair. We’ll make sure that your sink is repaired properly and suggest replacement if needed. 

Why does my sink gurgle?

A gurgling sink usually means there’s air trapped inside the drain. This can be caused by:

  • A clog (grease, dirt, debris, hair, etc.)
  • Buildup in the P-trap
  • Sewer line blockage
  • Vent pipe issues or damage

Can You Tell Me How to Unclog a Sink?

Start by clearing the drain opening of food, hair, or other buildup. Work a plunger over the drain to dislodge smaller blockages. For tougher blockages, try using a drain snake or flushing the drain with a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. 

You could also pour boiling water down the drain to soften the clog. If you opt for chemical drain cleaners, use them with caution and follow the instructions carefully. 

If the clog persists, contact Benjamin Franklin Plumbing for a professional solution.
