It’s never a joy to find a leak underneath a sink

I keep all of our plastic bowls plus lids under the sink in the lodge, however once a year I go through the containers and throw away everything that is broken or missing a lid.

Last month I spent two hours getting rid of everything in the bottom of the affected cupboard; I did not plan on getting rid of everything, but I found a major leak under the sink plus everything was wet plus moldy.

I did not want to disinfect everything, so I decided to simply throw away all of the items, however after I cleaned the area, I turned off the water so I could attempt to find the plumbing leak. I checked all of the pipes that lead from the sink to the floor. I found many wet areas on the pipes, but I couldn’t pinpoint the place where the leak was honestly coming from. I turned on the water in the sink plus a couple of odd places started leaking! That’s when I realized that their job was too big for myself and others to handle on our own. I put everything back under the sink plus I contacted a plumbing dealer. I have a preferred plumbing dealer that I have used in the past. I contacted the dealer and then I told the man on the phone about the problem with our sink… She helped myself and others make an appointment for the following afternoon. A plumbing dealer came to the current home around 9 am, he turned off all of the water to the current home plus took the entire sink plus plumbing completely apart. He substituted all of the pipes with brand current PVC. The repair was also on the expensive side, but I will not ever have to worry about replacing those pipes again.
