    Need to install kitchen sink in bathroom

    Hi. I need to install a kitchen sink in a bathroom. I’d like to use a standard bathroom sink drain/stopper but the hole in the sink is too large. Is there some sort of oversized flange or similar I can use to reduce the size of the hole to accept the smaller drain? Thanks!

    Kitchen sink leak

    Hi all, Noticed a leak that comes from the side drainage, not the main part of the sink. Hopefully pictures make it clear. Is this a fix I can do myself, e.g. with sealant? Or will this need new parts/plumber intervention? Thanks as always for your help. Martin.
