Happy wife, happy life! Good job!
You know the deal!
Thanks for watching and commenting.
Video is 2 years old and still the best tutorial I could find
Wow, that’s a huge compliment.
Thank you!!
My bathroom vanity is old (1978-Original) leaking and falling apart. I am going blind so just watching what someone is doing without a step by step description does not help me because I really cannot see what they are doing. In this video you did a great job of talking me through every step from removal of the old vanity to installation of the new one. Your describing each step was thourough and well spoken allowing me to understand what you were doing. So, now I will attempt to replace my vanity although I will call a plumber to install the water lines and drain pipe so I don't run into any problems with that in the future. Thank you for making this video. Tony T. Pasco Florida

Excellent orientation. Thanks

Good idea thanks
Thanks! This was awesome. My sister and I will be replacing her vanity and we did not want to pay someone. This looks very doable! We have the vanity ready to go in the garage, but I will check with her to see if she bought new faucet lines...and if she measured! Again...thanks!
Woo-hoo, I’m glad this tutorial helped!
And yes, don’t forget to measure the faucet lines.
Thanks for the tutorial. Wish me luck! 🤞🏾

DIY Tutorial Guy Thank you I appreciate it.
Thanks was struggling with mine
Happy this helped!
What if it looks like it’s attached to the hardwood floors?
Excellent question.
My understanding is that almost all bathroom vanities are anchored to the wall.
There is an exception; island vanities.
These are vanities usually seen in very large bathrooms, and are just like the name says…an island vanity.
These are most times floor anchored.
Is this what you are dealing with?
If not, chances are it IS anchored to the wall and most likely flush with the floor, but not anchored to the floor.
Haha thanks for tip with the plumber puddy at the sink. No wonder mine won't stay. Also I really wish my water pipe went straight down mine make that awkward turn towards the wall. So I'm have a hard time figuring out what is the correct sizes. But I made same mistake in with the kitchen faucet with the new water lines. O well. Do you know if the tile floor is always finished under the cabinet? I am sorta worried to pull mine because I am afraid the floor won't be finishEd all the way typically? Then it would be hard to find the replacement cabinet shape of mine. Especially since I'm contemplating a pedestal sink. My bathroom is super small .
Thanks for watching!
Now, to address your issues and questions.
In regards to the pipes going towards the wall, what size are they making it difficult to figure out?
As for the floor under the cabinet being finished or not, here is my answer. It should be. The only places on our bathroom floor that don't have tile covering the old flooring is where the pipes come out of the floor. However, yours come out of the wall, so I feel the floor should be finished.
Are you able to somehow get a peek under there?
@@DIYTutorialGuy nope not yet til I start getting it out. It's caulking and the large weather strip the white 3inch. It's gross too and paintedges over evenn. The drain looks normal size like yours but it's OK I got that part. Thanks for all your help!!
I just purchased this exact same model, and after installing it i noticed underneath the vanity there was a slight chip. Any idea how i can repair that?
Thanks for watching and commenting!
However, that is a little out of my area of expertise.
Wish I could offer more assistance.
So I'm a little confused. I've seen people use liquid nails and like yourself put silicone on top of the cabinet before installing the actual vanity top. I'm going to be installing my first cabinet this weekend and I don't know which to use? When I hear people say they are putting silicone? It blows my mind. Does that actually create and adhesive Bond between the top and the cabinet?
Liquid nails will wok, however, if the top ever needs to come off of the vanity…good luck!
Tub and tile caulk will bond the top and vanity in a secure manner, but allow you to take it off such as I did in the video.
thanks again for the response! i truly appreciate it. i came across adhesive kaulking that i read people use. i might give that a go. Cheers!@@DIYTutorialGuy
@distortionplayer1 you’re welcome. Good luck on the project, you’ve got it!
My sink doesn't have water shut off valves?
If that is the case, you will have to shut off the main water line.
Are all vanities the same height. Im worried I will get the wrong height. I need to replace mine badly but this is the ok only question I have.
The standard height for vanities is 30-32”.
If you purchase one from a store, you should see it on the box. If not, ask for help!
Does your sink have overflow?
The sink that we installed did not have overflow.
@@DIYTutorialGuy but I see you installed overflow drain is that fine. I have overflow drain but non-overflow sink.

That P-trap looks more like an S-trap. I'm no plumber, but i thought S-traps were against code because they don't work properly (water gets siphoned out of the p-trap by the water flowing downstream, allowing sewage gases to rise out of your drain)
You’re right, it’s an s-trap.
We sold the house last year, so that is no longer my issue.
Isn't that a S-trap???
Yes, it is.
Mistakes happen, and misidentifying a pipe had no impact on this project.
But yes, it is an S-trap and I messed up!
Nothing on leveling the vanity??
The floor was level, so there was no need to level it.
