Sink Repair With Clear Answers Before Work Begins
Sink problems have a way of getting worse the longer they're ignored. A drip under the cabinet becomes a soaked cabinet floor. A slow drain becomes a completely backed-up sink. A loose faucet handle becomes a shutoff that won't turn. What starts as a minor inconvenience can quietly cause damage that ends up being far more expensive to fix than the original problem ever would have been.
Lapin Services diagnoses and repairs all types of sink issues — kitchen, bathroom, utility, and commercial — across Central Florida. Our licensed plumbers get to the root of the problem rather than applying a temporary patch. We explain what we found, what we're going to do, and what it will cost before we start. With over 1,000 five-star reviews, Orlando homeowners and businesses have trusted us to get it done right since 1958.
Problems We Solve
Common Sink Repair Problems We Fix
You do not have to diagnose the problem yourself. These are common issues we help confirm, explain, and repair.
Dripping or Leaking Faucet
A faucet that drips when it's supposed to be off is wasting water and money around the clock. The fix — usually a worn washer, O-ring, or cartridge — is typically quick and far less expensive than the water bill impact of leaving it alone.
Leak Under the Sink Cabinet
Water inside the cabinet under your sink usually comes from a failing drain connection, a loose P-trap, a deteriorated supply line, or a corroded shutoff valve. Even a slow drip saturates wood and promotes mold — it's worth addressing right away.
Slow or Completely Clogged Drain
Kitchen sink clogs are typically caused by grease and food buildup. Bathroom sink clogs are usually hair and soap scum in the drain stopper or P-trap. Both can be cleared quickly — and we'll tell you how to keep them from coming back.
Low Water Pressure at the Faucet
Reduced pressure at a single faucet is often caused by a clogged aerator screen — a two-minute fix. If the aerator is fine, the issue may be in the supply line or shutoff valve and takes a bit more investigation.
Garbage Disposal Backing Up into Sink
If water is backing up into the side of the sink connected to your garbage disposal, the disposal drain line may be clogged or the knockout plug wasn't removed during installation. We diagnose and clear both quickly.
When to Call
Signs Your Plumbing System Needs Professional Attention
If you notice any of these signs, call Lapin. We will find the cause and explain what needs to happen next.
Water Under the Sink Cabinet
Any moisture, water stains, or standing water inside the cabinet below your sink is a clear sign something is leaking. Finding the source quickly is key — water damage to cabinets and subfloor adds up fast.
Drain Is Slow or Gurgling
A drain that empties slowly or makes a gurgling sound is telling you there's a partial blockage somewhere in the line. A gurgle specifically can mean air is being pulled past a partial clog — or that the vent is obstructed.
Faucet Drips When Turned Off
A faucet that keeps dripping after you've turned it off has a worn internal seal. It wastes more water than most people realize — and it only gets worse with time.
Water Pressure Has Dropped
If one sink is noticeably lower pressure than the rest of your home, the aerator, supply line, or shutoff valve at that fixture is the likely culprit. A plumber can diagnose and restore normal flow quickly.
You Smell Something Musty Near the Sink
A musty or mildew smell near a sink — even when nothing looks visibly wet — often means there's been moisture under or behind the cabinet for a while. Getting the source of the leak found and fixed stops further damage and removes the odor.

FAQs
Sink Repair FAQs
How do I know if my sink needs repair or replacement?
Most sink issues — leaks, clogs, dripping faucets — are repairable without replacing the sink itself. We’ll give you an honest assessment and only recommend replacement if it genuinely makes more financial sense.
Why does my kitchen sink drain so slowly?
Kitchen sink slowdowns are usually caused by grease and food buildup in the drain trap or further down the line. We can clear it quickly and advise on how to prevent it from recurring — usually it comes down to what goes down the drain.
Is a leak under the sink a serious problem?
It can be, especially if it’s been going on for a while. Water damage to cabinet bases and subfloors can be expensive to remediate — getting the source found and fixed quickly is almost always the less expensive option.
My faucet has low pressure on just one side — what does that mean?
Low pressure on just the hot or cold side typically points to a clogged aerator or a partially closed shutoff valve. It’s usually a clear repair — sometimes just a matter of cleaning the aerator screen.
Can you repair a kitchen sink with a garbage disposal?
Yes — we handle sink repairs that involve disposals regularly. We can clear disposal-related clogs, fix drain connections, and repair or replace the disposal itself if needed.
How long does a typical sink repair take?
Most sink repairs take between 30 minutes and two hours depending on the issue. We’ll give you a realistic time estimate once your technician has assessed the problem.
Do you repair sinks in rental properties?
Absolutely. We work with landlords and property managers throughout Central Florida and can coordinate directly with tenants when that’s easier for you.
What if the same problem comes back after the repair?
Our repairs come with a satisfaction guarantee. If the same issue returns as a result of our work, call us and we’ll make it right.
