    I just followed your instructions exactly and it came out perfect. I'm relieved I haven't ruined £180 worth of worktop - thank you!

    A good idea is to paint the inside of the cut worktop with an acrylic or oil based paint. If there is an ingress of water and the exposed inner worktop is not sealed, it could start to expand.

      It will definitely expand over time.

    A few more tips to add to an already comprehensive video - 1 Once the cutout's been done, fit the sink into the worktop via its clamping clips before you fix the worktops down, it's much easier than trying to do it lying on your back inside a cabinet. 2 - Same goes for the tap, overflow and waste plug/strainer - fit them in advance. Make sure your tap is nice and tight via the fixing nuts which are supplied, as these are often difficult to access for tightening if they become loose at some point in the future. Same goes for the flexi hoses for your hot and cold water. 3 - You'll sometimes find that when you've done the above and you put the sink back in its cutout, the sink clips catch on top of the cabinet, lifting the worktop slightly. If this happens, use a chisel just to take shallow notches out of the cabinet top until the worktop sits totally flat on the cabinet.

    It isn't done and dusted until you fix the clips in place - especially fun where you cut the base unit to fit the bowl. I have found that the clips supplied will need their own cut-out in the worktop (usuall 2-3mm) to enable the thickness of the clip to be accomodated. also on the thicker worktops longer screws may be needed for the clips. Its important to use EVERY clip position on the sink flange to ensure no leaks - I find that "pros" often leave out several clips if they are difficult to get at.

      Did you end up just using silicone instead and not bothering with clips? I used clips last time I fitted a sink and it was very awkward to do. I’m hoping to get away from using the clips next time.

  • @fardellp
    @fardellp 11 лет назад +3

    Well the problem with most "do it this way" videos is they show an ideal case and the "easy" bits! In the real world the sink has to be fitted when the worktops have been mitred and fixed in position- you can't do this after fitting your sink - and the sink seal and fixing clips aren't mentioned. The drill was on hammer action to drill the starting holes for the jigsaw - and you only need holes in two corners - think about it! Otherwise a good clear presentation - better than most!

    Well, you say that, but you've not actually installed it, as per the video title would suggest.
    What about undercounter seal and clips? Protection for the cut edges in the worktop and base unit? Preparation for taps and waste trap? Taps and waste fitting?
    You say it's easy, but that's probably because you've forgotten about all the additional work required to do a good job. Anything is "easy" if you ignore half the details.
    You could solve this very easily. Change the video title to "How to cut worktop for sinks and appliances".

    Back in my days we didn't have the luxuries of internet or RUclips, we had to use our brains, we had to have a high level of understanding by sight and the common sense to know what problems and dangers would be expected if the job wasn't carried out correctly unlike today 2019.
    2012 is when you uploaded your video but you also gave advice on how to fuck-up on a inset sink fitting which explains why through the years so many second rate jobs and DIY jobs have caused so many problems and second rate workers. Your video is not how to fit a sink but how to do the cut out for the sink, the cut out and fitting a sink are 2 different facts also, your explanation and demonstration lacks details as to fitting a sink the most basic part of the job. My advice to people like you is understand details before giving advice to the people that don't know how to do these jobs, that fact alone is in the ending of your video when you set the sink into the cut out saying done and dusted, far from was it done and dusted, maybe in future you'll mention the sink seal and the clamping of the sink.
