Step 1 · Prepare Workspace and Safety

Begin by clearing everything out from the cabinet under your kitchen sink to give yourself ample room to work. Lay down several old towels to protect the cabinet base from water spills. Place a bucket directly under the P-trap (the U-shaped section of pipe) to catch water and debris. For your safety, put on a pair of safety glasses to protect your eyes from splashes and a pair of waterproof gloves.
