I bought a plumbing book, after my first home purchase, to tackle a leak under the sink. The directions started with (roughly):
Take every single thing out from under the sink.
Build up a platform of pillow or padding, to lie on, that matches the level of cabinet opening.
Get a good light that fits into the cabinet, ideally that you can move around.
Put down old towels to catch the various leaks and drips.
It's tempting to skip these steps, but don't. You're going to be under there a while...
