Great job!

Looking for a plumber to fix a small leak in kitchen sink.

£60

I would definitely recommend Christopher. Very good service. He was available on short notice & friendly. He identified the problem quickly, explained what the issue was & what my options were. In the end, he changed the leaky pipes & installed a new faucet & took time to check that everything was working properly. He managed to resolve the issue quickly, within a couple of hours eventhough he had to go & get some additional part within that time.

You may need to work with a qualified plumber to install kitchen sinks and new taps or connect pipes (anything beyond minor repairs). Check any local requirements before you hire a handyman to make sure they have the right qualifications and experience.

Yes. The main rule is that for safety reasons, there must be a minimum distance between sinks and electrical sockets.

A kitchen sink replacement can be done in as little as 2 hours. This might take longer if you have additional features for your home improvement project.

What does a kitchen sink installation service include?

Your kitchen sink installer will take care of everything throughout this home improvement project, from helping you choose your kitchen sink and prepping the area to installing the sink, fitting the new taps and drain pipe, and sealing the area. Plus, they’ll take care of kitchen sink removal (if needed) and handle any repairs. 


Here’s what you can expect when booking a handyman for kitchen sink installation in your area:

Step 1: Kitchen sink removal

If you’re upgrading and replacing your old sink, your installer will first remove it. They’ll switch off the water supply valves under the sink or the main supply. Next, they’ll switch on the tap to let out any water that’s already there. They’ll put buckets underneath the pipes, ready to catch any lingering water as they’re removed. The next step is to remove the water supply lines, along with the drain pipe, fittings, and dishwasher connection (if there is one). They’ll find the sink clips located underneath the outside edge of the sink and loosen them. Next, they’ll use a knife to cut away the caulk that attaches your sink to the benchtop before lifting your sink out.

Step 2: Prep

To fit a kitchen sink, contractors may bring their own tools and materials or request you to prepare them, such as a putty knife, adjustable wrench, or silicone sealant. With the sink removed, your contractor will clean the area, removing any excess caulk from the benchtop and washing it with soapy water. They’ll wash and prepare any old parts you are reusing (like the drain pipe or tap). Before proceeding with your kitchen sink installation, they’ll check your new sink and ensure it fits in the existing hole on the counter. If not, they’ll either recommend choosing a different sink or increasing the hole size by cutting with a jigsaw until it fits.

Step 3: Kitchen sink installation

Installing your kitchen sink involves applying a silicone caulk to the sink’s underside before placing it into the hole. Next, they’ll wipe away any excess caulk that seeps out from under the edges before attaching the clips to the underneath of the sink, twisting them to secure the sink into place. Of course, this installation process only applies if your sink is top-mounted, so it will vary slightly for an undermount sink.

Step 4: Kitchen tap installation and reconnect pipes

To finish off, your kitchen tap is installed and the drain pipes are reconnected. Your installer will place your tap through the hole in your sink, using a washer and nut to hold the water lines in place before tightening. They’ll place the drain strainer and seal it in, removing excess putty before covering it with the rubber gasket and flange. Your contractor will connect each water supply line and re-connect the dishwasher, connecting all the pipes together again. Finally, they’ll switch the water supply back on, turn on the sink, and test to make sure there are no leaks or water damage on the work surface or surrounding areas.

I’m looking for a plumber to repair my kitchen sink waste pipe. The existing P-trap/U-bend has come apart and I haven’t been able to refit it correctly. I purchased what I thought was the correct replacement, but it appears the fittings/washers aren’t compatible with my existing pipework. Job required: * Assess the current waste pipe setup. * Supply any correct fittings/washers if needed. * Replace and fit a new P-trap/U-bend. * Ensure all joints are watertight and test for leaks before leaving. The sink is currently unusable as the waste pipe has come apart (see photos). Please let me know: * Your availability. * Whether you’ll bring any standard 40mm waste fittings that may be required. * Your total price including any small parts. Looking to have this fixed as soon as possible.

Repair and tidy water-damaged area behind kitchen sink

£200

Shacklewell, Greater London

15th Aug 2026

Hi! I’m looking for someone to improve the messy area behind and around my kitchen sink. Some wood behind the sink had previously rotted, and the repair was covered with a white plastic strip and lots of silicone. It now looks quite rough and the silicone is stained and coming away. I’d love to have it repaired properly and left looking clean, neat and water-resistant. I’m hoping the job could include: Removing the plastic strip and old silicone Checking what the surface underneath is like Repairing any small damaged areas Creating a neater, longer-lasting finish behind the sink Replacing the silicone around the area Checking the edges of the sink and resealing them if needed The sink itself seems fine, so I’m not necessarily looking to replace it. However, I’d appreciate your advice if you find that the sink or surrounding worktop is contributing to the problem. I understand that it may not be possible to see the full condition until the plastic is removed. If anything more substantial is uncovered, please show me and discuss any additional cost before continuing. Please let me know what kind of finish you’d recommend and whether your quote includes materials. Photos attached. Thanks! :)

I’m looking for a plumber to attend and investigate a drainage issue in my kitchen. The problem started while the water from the washing machine start to back up into the kitchen sink, and the sink is now draining very slowly / has become blocked. The washing machine and kitchen sink share a common waste pipe, so there may be a blockage further down the drainage line. I would like someone to come out, identify the cause of the blockage, and carry out any necessary unblocking works.

Super helpful, Michael exactly knew what to look for without us having to tell him. He is very professional and punctual. Highly recommended by me.
