    Bathroom Drain
    I just installed a new faucet and drain assembly. I have a very small leak that I now realize is because I installed a drain that is for a sink with an overflow but my sink does not have an overflow. Is there something I can put over the holes on the drain assembly or do I need to purchase a different drain assembly?

    I don't know what holes on the drain assembly you are talking about. I have hooked up many sinks with and without overflow holes and have had no problem. Plumbers putty under the aseembly in the sink and teflon tape on the pipes.

    You need to purchase a drain for a vessel sink.(see image)./ Good luck, Tom
