Sink Installation & Repair in Schertz, TX
Whether you're remodeling a kitchen, updating a bathroom vanity, or adding a utility sink to the garage, getting the plumbing right from the start prevents leaks and callbacks. We handle the full plumbing side of sink installations — supply connections, drain assembly, P-trap, and shutoff valve replacement — so the finished product is leak-free and code-compliant.
For repairs, the most common issues we see are leaks at the drain basket or P-trap, clogged drains from food debris or soap scum, and failing shutoff valves under the sink. Hard water from the Edwards Aquifer also causes mineral buildup on aerators and drain hardware that affects performance over time.
If you've purchased a sink or are having a countertop replaced, we'll coordinate the plumbing work around your contractor's schedule. We can also recommend sink configurations that work well in kitchen or bath remodels, particularly for unusual countertop depths or non-standard drain locations.

Signs Your Sink Needs Service
Leak Under the Cabinet
Water under the sink is almost always from the drain basket, P-trap connections, or the supply line shutoff valves — all fixable without replacing the sink.
Slow or Clogged Drain
A sink that drains slowly or backs up has a blockage in the P-trap or drain line — don't wait for a full backup to get it cleared.
Cracked or Stained Basin
A cracked sink basin can leak into the cabinet below. A sink that's heavily stained or damaged beyond cleaning is a good candidate for replacement.
Remodel or Countertop Replacement
New countertops almost always require sink plumbing to be disconnected and reconnected — this is the right time to replace aging shutoff valves and supply lines.
Shutoff Valve Won't Close
Old angle stop shutoff valves often seize open from mineral deposits. If you can't turn off the water under the sink, the valve needs replacement before an emergency.
Sewer Odors at the Drain
A dry P-trap or a cracked drain line fitting can allow sewer gas into the home through the sink drain — easy to diagnose and fix.
Frequently Asked Questions
Sink installation labor in Schertz typically runs $150–$350 depending on the type of sink, access, and whether supply lines, shutoff valves, or drain rough-in need work. A straightforward drop-in kitchen sink swap is less involved than an undermount sink installation with garbage disposal. We quote the job before starting — the cost of the sink itself is separate.
Yes. If you've already purchased a sink, we'll install it. We do ask that you have the fixture on hand before scheduling so we can complete the job in a single visit. If you're not sure what to buy, we're happy to advise on what works well for your countertop type, cabinet size, and local water conditions before you purchase.
Sewer odors from a sink drain usually mean the P-trap has dried out (common in infrequently used sinks), there's a cracked or loosely connected fitting allowing gas to escape, or there's organic buildup in the drain line producing odor. Running water to refill a dry P-trap is a first step; if the smell persists, the drain connections need inspection.
