Leaking Drains, Cracks, & Outdated Basin Basins

A sink is the unsung workhorse of your home. When it starts leaking from the drain basket, develops hairline porcelain cracks, or suffers water-damaging leaks underneath the cabinetry, it impacts your entire routine. Whether you are dealing with a sagging undermount kitchen basin in Lexington or a cracked bathroom washbowl vanity in Willisburg, these plumbing issues require swift professional attention before water rots out your subflooring and cabinetry.

Leaking p-traps, worn-out drain strainers, or corroded supply valves beneath your sink vanity won’t fix themselves. Trying to force a repair with heavy-duty sealants or DIY glue often results in hidden water accumulation and expensive drywall repairs. Professional sink restoration ensures a perfectly sealed, watertight setup that lasts for decades.

Sink Services: Repair, Upgrading, or Full Replacement?

1. Targeted Basin Repair

If your high-quality stainless steel or cast iron sink basin is in great physical condition, replacing minor sub-components is highly cost-effective. We routinely reseal leaking drains, swap out rusted tailpieces, rebuild failing p-traps, and address water line connection leaks.

2. Faucet & Accessory Upgrades

Sometimes the sink basin is perfect, but the surrounding fixtures are failing. We can pair your sink services with professional faucet repair and installation or clean out a jammed garbage disposal unit to make your wash area run smoothly.

3. Full Sink Replacement

If your porcelain is severely cracked, undermount mounts have separated, or you are remodeling your wash space, a complete replacement is the best option. We install undermount, drop-in, pedestal, farmhouse, and commercial utility sinks with perfect sealant beads.

Job Timelines & Pricing Factors

Average Job Durations

  • Minor Drain & Trap Repairs: 45 to 90 minutes.
  • Standard Sink Replacement: 1.5 to 3 hours (includes shutting down local water valves, dismantling old drain traps, prepping granite or laminate cutouts, setting mounting clips, and plumbing final lines).
  • Heavily Blocked Sink Drains: 1 to 2 hours, especially if resolving slow-moving drains requires professional drain cleaning.

Pricing Factors

We serve property owners across Harrodsburg, Danville, and Springfield with fully flat-rate, upfront pricing:

  • Countertop & Cutout Configuration: Drop-in sinks are easier to mount. Specialized undermount basins secured beneath granite or quartz counters require advanced mounting frameworks.
  • Basin Material Weight: Ranging from lightweight composite and stainless steel to heavy, cast-iron porcelain farmhouse washbowls requiring structural cabinet reinforcing.
  • Cabinetry & Plumbing Alignment: If your new sink sits deeper than your previous model, the existing drain stack lines and wall lines may need to be lowered or aligned for optimal drainage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes water to leak into the cabinet beneath my sink?

Cabinet leaks typically result from three main issues: a failing seal around the metal drain basket strainer, a loose slip-joint nut on your P-trap pipe assembly, or a tiny leak in your hot/cold water supply lines. Our technicians can pinpoint the exact origin in minutes and replace the worn seals.

Can you mount a new undermount sink to an existing granite countertop?

Yes, absolutely. Replacing a separated undermount sink requires scraping away old silicone, prepping the stone’s underside, and using specialized undermount sink clips, anchors, and industrial epoxy. It is highly recommended to hire professional plumbers for this, as heavy undermount sinks can collapse if they are only sealed with silicone.

Do you install sinks for commercial kitchens or offices?

Yes. Right There Plumbing handles both residential and commercial sink setups. We install heavy-duty stainless steel commercial 3-compartment basins, handwashing wall mounts, breakroom utility sinks, and ADA-compliant bathroom vanities throughout Central Kentucky.
