Addressed a plumbing issue in a residential kitchen where the P-trap under the sink was leaking. Removed the old, corroded trap and installed a new PVC P-trap. Checked the supply lines for leaks and found a small drip at the cold-water shutoff valve. Replaced the valve with a new brass ball valve to ensure no future leaks.
