Kitchen Sink Issues We Fix

From slow drainage to complete blockages, we handle all common kitchen sink problems with practical troubleshooting and reliable solutions.

Sink Choke and Blockage

Slow or blocked drainage cleared with plumbing snake or high-pressure flush. We identify whether debris or grease is the main cause to prevent repeat blockages.

Pipe Leak Under Sink

Leaking joints or corroded pipe sections under the counter diagnosed and repaired. We can patch joints or replace the full pipe section depending on damage extent.

Tap and Mixer Replacement

Old or damaged kitchen taps swapped with new models in your choice of finish. We handle pull-down, pull-out and standard mixer installation with proper water seal testing.

Drainage Pipe Repair

Cracked, loose or misaligned drainage pipes realigned, resealed or rerouted. Includes checks on P-traps and horizontal runs to ensure proper slope for drainage.

Kitchen Sink Replacement

A compatible sink can be fitted into the existing cut-out; new countertop cutting, unusual mounting and non-standard pipe changes are scoped separately.

Powered Waste-Disposal Connection

We inspect the plumbing connection and route electrical or internal-unit faults to the appropriate electrical, appliance or manufacturer service.

How Kitchen Sink Booking Works

Simple intake, quick diagnosis, clear fix. We make sure you understand and approve every step.

Step 1

Share Photos and Measurements

Send photos above and below the sink, the tap or leak point, cut-out dimensions and whether you already have a replacement unit.

Step 2

Compare Repair and Replacement

We identify the likely repair route or compatible replacement scope and flag fixture supply, countertop cutting or pipe changes that need separate pricing.

Step 3

Confirm On-site Scope

The technician confirms the fault, access and selected scope. Any variation is explained for written approval before additional work proceeds.

Step 4

Completion and Payment

Work is completed, tested, and you verify the result. Pay by PayNow, transfer, or cash. We also share practical maintenance tips to reduce future issues.

Common Kitchen Sink Problems and Solutions

Real scenarios that happen regularly in Singapore kitchens. Understanding the cause helps prevent the issue from returning too quickly.

Grease Buildup Choking Drains

Over time, cooking oil and fats cool and solidify inside pipes, trapping food particles. This creates slow drainage that gradually becomes a complete blockage. Manual clearing fixes it temporarily but a more thorough pipe flush prevents repeat issues within weeks.

Corroded Copper or Steel Pipes

Older kitchens with metal pipes often suffer internal corrosion that reduces the pipe diameter. The water pressure becomes weak and particles get trapped more easily. We assess whether patching or full section replacement is needed based on corrosion extent.

P-Trap Seal Breaks

The curved section under the sink holds water to prevent sewer gases from backing up. If this dries out or breaks, foul smells emerge even if drainage is not blocked. Refilling, resealing or replacement fixes this simple issue quickly.

Loose or Leaking Tap Base

Constant use and temperature changes loosen the tap mounting bolts under the sink, causing water to pool during use. Tightening the fasteners and replacing worn washers usually solves the problem without needing full tap replacement.

Why Choose FixMove for Kitchen Sink Repair

Clear pricing, practical experience, and honest troubleshooting. We handle kitchen sink problems the way we handle all home repairs: transparently.

Written Scope Before Work

The quote separates repair, fixture supply, compatible replacement, countertop work and pipe variations. Any newly discovered issue is explained and approved before extra work proceeds.

Photo-first Scope Check

Photos, dimensions and supply status help distinguish a repair from tap or sink replacement before a slot is confirmed.

Proper Pipe Diagnosis

We inspect not just the immediate leak or blockage but also the overall pipe condition. Poor slope, loose joints or corrosion are flagged so you know about future risks upfront.

Parts and Fittings by Scope

Common pipes, joints, traps and washers can be included where stated. Non-standard taps, sinks and materials are identified and priced before sourcing.

Compatibility Check

Single and double sinks, mounting type, cut-out size and pipe layout are checked because they affect whether a replacement is compatible.

Practical Maintenance Advice

After fixing the problem, we share tips on drain care, grease disposal, and simple checks that help you catch issues early. This reduces emergency calls and extends time between service visits.

FAQ

How long does kitchen sink diagnosis and repair take?
Timing depends on whether the issue is an accessible blockage, a tap or trap fault, or a deeper pipe restriction. Send photos or video first; the inspection scope and expected work window are confirmed before booking.
What causes kitchen sink choking most often?
Food scraps, grease buildup, soap residue, rice and starch commonly block kitchen sink drains. Hard water deposits and corroded pipes can also restrict flow. Proper maintenance helps prevent recurring problems.
What details speed up a sink repair or replacement quote?
Send photos above and below the sink, the cut-out dimensions, the tap or leak point, and whether you already have the replacement tap or sink. FixMove then confirms the likely scope and available slot.
What can change the quoted sink replacement cost?
Sink supply, countertop cutting, mounting type, damaged valves, pipe rerouting and access can change the scope. Any variation is explained and approved in writing before the additional work proceeds.
What do you charge for leaking pipes under the sink?
Typical pipe joint repairs start from S$80. If the pipe section needs replacement, pricing depends on material, diameter and accessibility. We quote after inspection.
Do you replace the entire kitchen sink?
Yes. A compatible sink replacement in an existing cut-out is typically S$150-S$280 for the listed installation scope. Sink supply, countertop work and non-standard plumbing are quoted separately.
Do you repair powered waste-disposal units?
FixMove can inspect the plumbing connection and arrange the appropriate electrical or appliance scope. Motor or internal-unit repairs may require the manufacturer or an appliance specialist.
Do I need to source the tap myself?
No. We can source standard kitchen taps and mixers in common designs and finishes. Or if you prefer, provide your own tap and we charge labor only for installation.
