I'm not trying to discount any quality of your work but the best comment I heard in this video is that you said no tech should leave a mess for a resident to clean up. Very refreshing to hear!

One huge tip that I took away from this video vs others was that he put the faucet in 1st before installing the sink. Sooooo much easier to do it this way vs putting faucet in once sink is installed. Thank you so much. Very helpful

This was a very well done, very intelligently explained, teaching video. You have given me the proper tools to do the job safely and efficiently. I'm extremely impressed that you actually took the time and showed other maintenance people how to be professionals. Thanks for this.. my confidence level on an upcoming remodel has been boosted now.🙏

Love your attitude regarding residents.

You preach quality, service, and professional. I salute you

This is a great video. The plumber's putty tip is spot on

Thank you!! For your helpful information and very good attitude, it will help me to know how to put my sink into my new counter top and cutting it myself, I have been puzzled 😕 for a year now because I really thought I would mess it up . I appreciate your video and thanks a million times.

You would not believe how grateful I am but I give you big hugs and send you lots of love today. I’m trying to take my sink out and watching your video help me figure out what those little brackets under the sink were. We couldn’t get them out and I didn’t know what to do. Thank you for such an informative awesome video. I plan on using this video when I reinstall new stuff. You’re the best!

You know how to instruct people who’s waches your videos I think is the first feed back I been given greed job been looking for these video, other people they just wanna be showing what type of job their doing they don’t explain Great Job

Done plumbing for 30 years and you have given the DIY er's very good info.

oh my god man you're the best!!! You have the advice that saves lives. (or money and time). glad this is the first video I saw and the only one I need to get the job done. I just need a good workshop

You did an excellent job explaining step-by-step on how to get stomach sick correctly 7:40

Right to the point, perfectly edited and conveyed. Hats off!

Wow thank you sir for such of great job, love the cleaning tip, resident never has to clean our mess, thank you once again

You make it look so easy! Can't wait to help my husband put in our sink. Now I won't be so clueless!!

Thank you so much. I was like what can I learn? Around 20 years ago. Me and my husband cut a hole for the sink. He cut it almost to big. And never add nothing to keep out the water under the sink. He said it would be ok against my better judgement. I had to put the faucet in afterwards he was done putting the sink in that was a pain in the butt. So My husband past away. And I'm putting in cabinets and a sink. I like be the idea of putting the faucet on a sink first. And I was right about adding putty. It will be done right this time. But still using my jigsaw since I'm still looking for the skill saw.

I just had a sink installed in my kitchen the exact same type that is in your video. The guy claims he has 20 years experience I can't tell from the work that she done this thing was not screw clamp down underneath like you showed it out used the plumbers putty around the edges to keep water leaking in between the Carter board which it did and it started to buckle up and nor did she clean up behind himself dorota complained to his his company thank you for that video it was very educational and I will use it in my complaint against the guy that installed like he's sick keep up the good work

I think I’d rather use a good quality, clear silicon sealant bead to seal everything. It can come with mold resistance, unlike plumber’s putty. I’ve looked at that anchor rail on the underside of the sink and it really doesn’t seem like it would stand up to snugging the anchors enough to squeeze out putty, but silicon sealant offers less resistance.

Plus, then I’m not pressing a whole lot on my countertop & sink like he is when it’s not supported into where I’m installing it, so I’m not taking the chance of breaking the counter in front where it’s so thin.

I'm not a fan of putty or gunned sealants. I prefer closed cell foam rope. Easier to install. No mess. No waste. Completely hygienic. Biodegradable in about 100 years.

Thank you . I'm installing a sink on Saturday . Your video has been most helpful

Your video was very helpful as I have never done this before. Not a lot of talking and uselessness. To the point and I think I can do it this way. Thanks.

Thank you for the very nicely done work and I have learned something today that I can put into practice

Great video! Excellent advice on the customer retention clean up!

Good on you for cleaning up after yourself. I had a guy install carpet on my stairs, left a huge mess behind and even recommended I use a shop vac to clean it. He left me his card and said if I ever needed any more work done to give him a call. Needless to say I won't be calling him.

I like your attitude about not leaving a mess for the resident. Seems like most installers use silicone caulk, not putty. Putty tends to dry out over time and become brittle. Any thoughts on treating the exposed edges of the cut particle board to stop moisture absorption and swelling? Overall, a good video. Thanks!

Linda, thanks for watching the sink video. Another note on the plumbers putty. When you put the putty on the lip of the sink make sure you use ample amounts that it squeezes out both to the inside of the sink as well as the outsides of the sink lip. If you do that there shouldn't be any issues with water leaking into the wood using putty. BTW You're right the putty will dry out over time. So if that concerns you can use tub and shower water base caulking and smear it along the lip of the cut out before you drop in the new or repaired sink. This will stop any leaks if the putty does crack. Water base is easy to clean up, you could use 100% silicone if that's all you had. Best of luck on any and all home projects Thanks again, Ron Sorry its been so long to reply, I just never get to that part of the youtube world.

In doing our cupboards and sink install I painted the entire inside of the base cabinet for the sink first with kills to seal it and then two coats of cabinet paint to seal the MDF and any wood that would be exposed to water. Also a speed of clear silicone around the edge of the sink to the countertop

Caulk the raw edges of particle board at sink opening and backsplash will make sure u don’t have any swelling or rotting from moisture down the road.

Great tip at the end. Most contractors these days forget about cleanliness.

I like it your way, no template ,great job,

It is installed. That's the whole countertop moving around with the sink. I'm guessing that's not the actual location where the counter top is being installed.

What do you think about sealing the pressboad with resin to protect it from water?

When setting the sink do you use silicone?

Could you use a heat gun to help with that putty on cold days? This looks easier to do than I thought.

Careful service👌👍

This is a perfect video

Thank you for a no nonsense video it help me out alot. I now subscribe.

What size of hole saw did you use?.

Thank you sir

What size was the hole drill bit that you use to drill the holes

If you know it's going to be cold where you install the sink then take a hair dryer with you to heat up the putty.

excellent diy

Great Job !!! Theres not too many that does anything correctly anymore ...

been trying to find that screwdriver, do you know the part name or number? I will continue to dig, thanks.

the hole saw cuts......you made from the bottom of counter to the finished side....no chipping? thanks great vid

I am sure there was big chipouts. Always use a hole saw starting from the finish side and you will get perfect crisp corners everytime. I rarely can maneuver a counter top in a customer's home upside down to make cuts like this. So I usually cut from the top. Using a down cut blade on a jigsaw and hole saws for the corners

@@ThielTube but the problem I'm having is there isn't enough room between the cut line at the rear of the counter and the factory counter backsplash. I'm cutting into a 24 1/8 inch top measuring from the good side of the backsplash, I should have gotten a top that was an inch wider than what I have, so this guys method will work as long as make those holes from the top side

Can I do this from the top of the counter, it is already installed...blue tape?

Why you apply the putty? Rubber Gasket will do the job. You can apply sealant around the cutting edge too make easier.

U should have sealed raw wood that u cut with sealer r silicone n case water ever got under sink

Do you tape the finished side before cutting?

Muito bom vidio so que EU no entendo nada do que fala 👏👏

Great video except using plumber's putty around the perimeter of the drop in sink. Plumber's putty is not recommended because is will dry and crack and is not mold and mildew resistant. Any sink l have ever installed they manufacture always recommended using a clear silicone. Then once dry removed excess and clean with mineral spirits. Leaves no reside and is clear so it looks better than ugly brown plumber's putty, and is also mold resistant.
