    Leaky sink
    My kitchen sink just started leaking really bad. They are plastic pipes. But it looks like it is coming from the seems and I have no clue about how to go about fixing it. I just want a quick fix, for now until I can get someone to look at it.

    If you are looking for a quick fix until you get someone to fix it, then I would try tightening the nuts connecting the pipes.
