Water leaking under sink in Tampa

A leak under a kitchen or bathroom sink can come from a faucet, valve, fixture connection, or another plumbing component. This guide covers safe observations, when to get professional help, and how to reach the Leak Repair service path.

What to do first

Move stored items away from the water and look from outside the cabinet for the point where water appears. Avoid taking plumbing parts apart. If the leak continues, spreads, or simple fixture adjustments do not stop it, contact a plumbing professional.

What may be causing the leak

Possible causes include a dripping faucet, a leaking shutoff valve, a worn fixture part, or another leaking valve or connection. Water can also collect at the bottom of the cabinet after starting higher up, so the visible puddle may not show the original source.

When to call a plumber

Arrange plumbing help when the source is unclear, the leak returns, water is reaching the cabinet or floor, or a simple fixture fix does not stop it. If you suspect a hidden leak, EPA WaterSense suggests checking the water meter before and after a two-hour period when no water is being used; a change may indicate a leak. A plumbing professional can investigate further.

Choose the right service

Leak Repair is the relevant starting point for water under a sink. Before scheduling, describe whether the leak is constant or intermittent, where you first see water, whether the cabinet or floor is wet, and whether the leak continues when the sink is not being used. Confirm that the company handles residential plumbing leaks at your Tampa address.
