Leak under the kitchen sink

It is usually a joint, the trap or a hose. Send a photo of the open cabinet. Do not take anything apart.

What it usually is

  • A trap nut has worked loose.
  • The tap hose is dripping at a joint.
  • The dishwasher waste is sending water back.

What you can safely do now

  • Put a bowl or towel under the leak.
  • Close the tap's own valve if you can see it and it turns easily.
  • If you cannot find it, close the main stopcock.

When it's urgent

It is urgent if the cabinet is filling up or water is reaching the flat below.
