- 3 Main Problems Explained! This was made by an amateur who learned some things & is sharing them in an easy to understand way! I had 3 major problems that I came across when replacing the PVC Pipes under my kitchen sink. First were the washers / gaskets: There were 2 different kinds a flanged washers and smooth 1 1/2" washers. The directions on the bag from Home Depot did not explain well enough what to do with these! Secondly: How to connect a threaded PVC pipe to a Non-Threaded PVC Pipe... that one took a while! Thirdly: How to attach Dishwasher Attachment to the pipes under the sink. I hope the things I learned can help you with your DIY project under the kitchen sink. This video Includes the P-Trap, center joints and arms w/ Dishwasher Attachment. Just one stay at home mom taking on another house repair project! Hope this video helps you repair your leaky sink pipes!

I'm sitting outside Home Depot watching this video. 😊
Same 😂
Been there my friend lol
Lmbo yess sounds so much like me!😆
me tooo!! hahah
Outside of lowes
Of all the darned "expert" plumbing videos on this topic, yours is the best. There's not one that explains that flat tail piece washer vs. the beveled, smooth washer. I went to the hardware store to get help and I was given the correct metal washer to connect to the strainer, but it had the wrong washer! So since I'm no expert plumber, of course I thought the guy gave me the correct stuff and I struggled with it, driving me mad! I realized there had to be a different shaped washer. You verified it for me and made me sane again.
Thank you for the video and your attention to detail!
This video saved my a$$. None of the other kitchen plumbing videos explain the under-the-sink connections nearly as well as this. Many, many thanks.
You are not a plumber but you explain it better than most plumbers I know... Great job!!
Awww thank you!
Doesn't she?! Omg, I couldn't figure out what to type into Google, but she had the exact info I and others really needed ❤❤❤❤
Baby whispering in the background just touched my heart!. I only came to hear the breakdown. Didn't ecpect that!
Omg you just saved me from my anxiety! I was freaking out after my pipe started leaking and had a small flood. This is the first video I watch and don’t even have to look any further. Thank you so much 🤗
Outstanding analysis and presentation by a well-organized lady with excellent teaching skills...helpful for anyone who views this video. 5 Stars.
Best video about sink, finally someone explained the washers.
Thank you so much! I couldn't get the plastic nut to screw onto the bottom of the sink...then I heard you say Home Depot recommends you use a metal nut there! I thought something was wrong with my sink! Thank you!
God, I love the internet and these videos. I just fixed our sink myself. I didn't even need the PVC glue we bought. So, thank you, thank you, thank you. I don't know who you are, but I really appreciate you.
Thank you for being easy and thorough
When I come on line to get help , I hate when someone thinks they are doing this for plumbers and not the home owners
Your the best ❤️
The baby whisper is super sweet! Great video! Thank you!
I can't determine the legitimacy of this procedure without more of the toddler's perspective. How adorable.
We just successfully installed a new kitchen sink, thanks to this excellent video. So clear, so concise. We were stumped about how to fit an unthreaded pipe to a threaded pipe until we watched this tutorial. Also LOVE that you’re plumbing with the help of your little one. Much respect!
Thank you so much for this video! My sink plumbing suddenly came apart while the husband was out of town! And I, with zero plumbing experience, was able to put it back together with your video!! I kind of want to tackle some more projects now. 😉
Very nicely done. I too like that you pointed out the differences in the washers. It's the little things that can mess stuff up.
Thank you for making this video - it pin pointed the mistakes I was making with my own installation, and took time to really explain exactly how to do this - the other videos I found were very vague and seemed to assume the watcher was already familiar w everything. And I love finding how-to household videos done by a woman!!!
I had 3 different men try to fix the pvc pipes under my kitchen sink and and the pipes kept disconnecting and then I saw your video after the pipes came disconnected AGAIN and I followed your GREAT directions and it has held for 2 weeks now and feels so much more secure than when the others tried and failed (they kept insisting pipes were too short)! Hurray!!! Fantastic video!! Thank you SOOOO much!!
WOW I'm so glad the video helped!
My FAVORITE part is at the 5:20 mark where a child chimes in and says, "but it has to". Absolutely adorable.
Thank you! I was about to hire a handyman bc my stepdad has "fixed" every sink in their house and they all leak now. I watched this video and have fixed them! It was a washer issue. I think he was placing them in the nut and sliding them onto the smooth end. I placed them directly on the smooth end and slid them up higher instead and so far, no leaks.
Your so welcome!!
You are amazing. I worked a 13 hour shift, spent around 7 hours trying to fix my sink pipes after flushing rice in my sink and not knowing how to re-attatch the pipes and you saved me in 3 minutes. i could not attach the non threaded pipes but fixed in about 3 minutes from your video. Thank you so much and Happy Mothers day. I'm a guy that doesn't read instructions but did this time as you were the instructions. Thank you, my wife and kids will be happy and relieved in the morning lol.
So glad the video helped! Woohoo!
Really nice presentation, very understandable. I liked the parts payout and explanation of seals.
Thank you! My dad’s a retired plumber, so he’s taught me some stuff over the years and has given me many tools. This video and his text guidance helped me to remove a garbage disposal and replace with pipes. I only had a single sink to replumb, but your tips were helpful and gave me the confidence to tackle this task and save my senior mom hundreds of bucks 😉
Thank you for this video! I was struggling to find a plumber to help me reconnect the pipes (one had come apart). The pipe didn't look broken, but had no idea how to connect a smooth to a threaded. Your video showed me exactly what I needed to do! Not only did it save me the headache (and $$$$$) of finding a plumber during a very busy time, but I got it done in 30 seconds!
Thank you!!!
I am very impressed with this how to video! You get right to it without a lot of fluff. Thank you for such a great reference!!!!!
THANK YOU! This video was perfect. After a frustrating time of trying to fix my sink I turned to RUclips. Yours was the first video I looked at. It all "came together" after watching your video. What a sanity saver. Thank you again.
Thank you. Just purchased a mobile home and the kitchen sink leaked, you saved me a bundle!
Thank you!!! saved me . I was going mental with same problem of the gasket. now i can finally was my dishes. so helpful. i hope one day I can make a video of something useful that could help folks…. to pay it forward.
It is 1am in the morning and I fixed the threaded/unthreaded PVC connection. Thanks for the video. ♥️
Omg! I was swearing and so aggravated, lost on the same exact things as you! Thank you so much!!!!! Kitchen sink poly washer replaced and sink no longer leaks!!!!!!!
You have saved me from hiring a plumber- thanks for your straightforward video - you’re a true blessing!!!!
Life saver on the connection coming off the sink. Greatly appreciated!
hey thanks for making this video! I started out trying to unblock my kitchen sink , only to find two leaks underneath... headed for utube for help. after an hour of watching vids I finally found yours
now I have fixed two leaks and unblocked the whole thing. PLUS now I know why and how it all works and could fix or amend it in a heartbeat.
Thank you so much ❤
Thank you so much!! I did watch your old video years ago, but now live in a different place having to do this all over again!! Great video!!
Thanks for the tut🤜🏾🤛🏼My son and I were able to repair our kitchen sink after watching your video🥳✌🏾🎯
Thank you kind stranger and RUclips University. Just used this info and it works fine.
This seems pretty simple because of your great explanation. I’m tackling this tomorrow afternoon. Thank you!
Thank you for explaining all these different parts to plumbing!! So helpful. Thanks for going over the kits too!
Your welcome! I'm so glad it helped out!
lady you saved my ass this evening, many thanks
Thank you very much ! I got stuck fitting the non threaded bit with a threaded one. I couldn’t understand how on earth it would not fit back as easily as it was undone.... after 1/2 hour of pushing / turning and overheating my brain I decided to take a break and have a cup of coffee with some biscuits whilst trying to find the solution online. You saved my weekend 🤓😘😘😘
Oh My Goodness, I am subscribing to you!!! I’m a single person living on a budget. So I need to learn how to do things around the house myself. I have been watching tons of videos and none has even come close to helping me until I came across your video. You get right down and show how to do the project, no mumble, jumble. I now feel confident on how to do it. THANK YOU!!
That was very clear, step by step. Thanks for explaining the washers.
Thank you so much for this video. My kitchen sinks are clogged up but I was afraid to take the pipes apart in case I couldn’t put them back together by myself. Thanks to your video I now have the confidence to make an attempt since we have the same kind of setup. I like your explanation, very thorough yet simple to comprehend.
Brilliant! Thanks for clear instructions and step by step guide. Just what I needed
Thank you for the groove joint wrench tip, I needed that. Plus, I’m saving this video especially for the washer tip. First time I’ve ever worked on plumbing, this helped a lot!
Thank you! You explained this better than the "pros".
Thank you!! I drained my sink and heard water gushing. First thought, “Wow! That seemed really loud!?” Second thought, “Don’t look under the sink!” 😂 I could see where the pipe came apart, and decided to clean them out, before putting them back together. But I couldn’t figure out the washers! I checked out a couple of videos that were of no help, and then found yours. Thank you!! You rock!
I'm so glad the video helped!
Wrongway, I had the same problem. I couldn't figure out the washers. After the video it was smooth sailing!
Very helpful. No other video I've watched so far explained the washers. BIG 👍👍👍!!!
Great job on the detailed explanation & thanks for sharing your video with the rest of us. 😎
Really helpful, you're making everyone's life easier. Thanks.
Wow! Great, simple to follow instructions! Thank you!
You are absolutely the best! So concise, to the point, and great visual, & great explanations. Going home to do mine now. Thank you so much!
This is awesome. You made this complicated work simple. Thank you!
This was awesome and answered all my questions without any useless blather. I was able to replace a leaking cracked and corroded slip nut and all the tailpiece nuts and washers without damaging the rest of my really old (all metal) sink plumbing from this video. Everything has remained dry as a bone for the last few days so it looks like I did it right! I used a small wire brush to clean the grungy threads and was careful not to overtighten the nuts (just 1/4 turn after finger tight). Thank you!
Thank you! I watched this video last night, bought pieces this morning, 30 minutes after starting I was free of leaks! The metal ring had worn out so bad (attaches to the sink) that the pipe feel out of it, all my fish water fell over everything, soaking my pants and the floor. I’m so glad I can finally get my dishes done today!
I'm so glad you were able to fix it!!!
3:20 you saved me! I was total confused how to put it back together 😅
Thank you!! You saved me! I don't usually ever write comments but I GREATLY appreciate your video and clear explanation! And the little one's cute voice in the backdrop was an added bonus. : )
Awwww thank you so much! I'm so glad the video helped!
Thank you so much! Can't even explain just how helpful this was to me.
Wow in the first 5 min of video i was able to finally fix the pipes under my sink properly! I never knew what the heck to do with the washers😂 i tried just glueing it with pvc glue which worked but not great. Thank you so much for explaining this so clearly!!
You are so welcome!
We had the sink all blocked with fat. Disconnected the P trap and couldn't work out how to get the pipe to connect back together again. The secret was the black rubber seal - that you clearly explain how to use and connect. Priceless - Thank-you so much !
I'm so glad the video helped!
Mine has been leaking off/on for years. I was intrigued by all the parts that you had laid out that were calling to me. Now at least I have a foundation to the right way. Thank you!
Thanks for posting this video and the one about replacing the strainer basket. It was so helpful!!!
THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH!!!! I too was really confused about getting the different pieces to fit together - this solved it for me! The washer and screw ring HAVE to go on in the order you showed.
Thank you for the clear instructions and videos, very well explained and very helpful.
I absolutely, 100 percent, cannot thank you enough for this video. Hubby and I got the new kitchen sink faucet in and then I just sat there, trying to remember how the stupid fittings all went back together. Hubby found your video and I got the pipes back together in no time. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
You are so welcome!
Just plumbed my new sink. No leaks! Thank you!!!
Thank you so much. Saves me a service call and a lot of money. Great video.
Girl friend I don't know why but when you explain it, it just makes sense . Thank you
You were really helpful to me identifying the parts!!
A lot of great tips, especially with the gaskets.
This was super helpful; thank you! I just bought a new, much deeper sink and will likely have to replace the pipes. This definitely gave me more confidence and understanding of what's going on down there!
I'm so glad it helped!!!
Great video presentation minus all the blathering. Easy as pie! Thank you!
I’ve watched so many of these videos only to be more and more frustrated until I got to the clarity of this one. Thank goodness someone knows how to explain something like they are teaching it to someone.
Thank you perfectly explained ! I just did it last week & I wish I would of seen your video cause even with instructions had a hard time . Thanks
I really like this video, a lot of the other videos were not covering this aspect. I finally found out that the small pvc segment needs that thing you called 'Straight washer'. I now have my shopping list narrowed down to a few washers and a slightly longer PVC segment than I bought.
One of my other projects is to install a dishwasher drain loop, because mine can brings water back to the dishwasher pump. You might want to raise your dishwasher loop higher between the gap of the sink tubs. So go through the sink, next to the faucet knobs. I just want my loop suspending from a high area on the cabinet wall.
Great video, thank you again.
Thank you for showing how to attach the two. I struggled for an hour before looking this video up. Now i fixed my kitchen sink. Thank you
You are welcome! I'm so glad the video helped!
Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video. The language you used and the explanation was great.
You're very welcome!
Thanks for the help! Excellent instructions. Easy to follow along.
You are so awesome! I was having trouble with the non threaded end connecting it to that other thingy. You saved my life thank you so so much!!!!!
Thank you. You made my job turn out easy and looking professional.
My 3 years old boy enjoy watching this video a lot, even he doesn’t understand much about it ;)
Thank you very much. You give me a complete, easy and wonderful explanation. You are a good helper. Thanks.
Nice demonstration! You clarified a situation for me. Thanks
Blessings to you for creating this video and your very clear instructions! So appreciated!!!! Really helped today when fixing my kitchen sink pipes today!
Wonderful! So glad it helped!
Very well explained, especially about washer direction, and you're a girl, I'm really impressed, and here's my long story,
For starters I'm 65 I rebuild automatic transmissions for a living {40 plus yrs} so I'm no stranger to seals and leaks. But as I like to say I'm a mechanic not a plumber,electrician.etc. I am reasonably handy,but I'm no Mr fixit. So anyway,two days ago my wife notices that under the kitchen sink its slightly wet,So yesterday we decide by virtue of years lets replace from the double sink drains down to the pipe in the floor, I disconnect from the sink drains to the floor pipe in one piece,{find the source of my leak} as I say in work the smoking gun.And off to the plumbing supply house {I live in the city,so for plumbing I use a plumbing supply house not home depot,the place Ive been using for 20 plus years with great technical knowledge and good parts closed down about 2 years ago, the owner retired. So this other place was always my backup.So anyway I go into the place yesterday with the entire piece all together so i can have them match it up;{just like in work,lets lay it out and match it up piece by piece the way it goes} Up to the counter,4different guys the one says can I help you, a 30 something, I lay my whole shebang on the counter in one piece and say I need this, His question is what size pipe is that{ut oh} a guy behind him a little older says 1 1/2, OK he knows what hes doing,The first guy goes into the back to get my stuff, I ask guy#2 can you make sure everything is right,stuff comes out, Is everything here,yeah your good, Home I start laying everything out on a table outside,starting at the sink drain I notice right away the piece I have will not mate with the sink drain, trip #2 walking back in guy#2 says whats wrong I know you have everything you need{with a attitude} I show him new piece will not mate here,and I hold up the old piece, like this piece, Oh yeah sorry ,I forgot about that piece,you'll also need the 2 extra nuts and straight washers{like the video}Ok can we lay this out now and make sure ? no need to you're good, get home lay everything out cut the one universal piece I just got and for the sink drain side everything is fine,except now for the other end I need 2 additional nuts and smooth gaskets,trip #3 right thru the door,now what wrong I know you got everything I"m sure ,what about connecting the other end 2 nuts and smooth washers,oops sorry,So this time I get 2 extras of nuts and 2 straight and 2 smooth washers,
Back home everything fits, goes right together,snug everything down by 2 PM, no leaks first try Last night at 8PM my wife notices a little water, I must have given those nuts almost close to another 1/4 turn, I had those things dam tight,I'm assuming the gaskets compressing,
This morning I wanted to go online and confirm I had my washers in the correct direction,I was ready for a grueling search and don't you know this was first video I saw!
Hat's off to this young lady for a clear and precise video,It answered my questions on washer direction,I originally had mine in the right way.But now I definitely know they are right,another day or 2 of leak checking and maybe nut snugging ,then my wife can put all her stuff back. Once again thank you sweetie,in 2021 it took a girl to give me the definite answer's i couldn't get from 2 or 3 guys that work at a plumbing supply house
'
I'm so glad the video helped out!!!!
Exellent video. All i need to learn the most important things about pipes, washers, p traps, etc. Thanks
I'm so glad the video helped!
I just want to say thankkkkk you for this video. You 100% walked me through how to do this. I couldn't figure it out til I watched this.♡
I believe it's your daughter in the background backseat plumbing "you need some pliers" lol
Best sink drainage video, thank you very much
Listen queen YOU are a life saver!
Thank you for explaining this so good. this was confusing for me. thanks
Thank you so much for this video, I can finish my first time kitchen renovation.
Exactly the concern I have. How to connect pieces together. Thanks for your video!
Just want to say thank you!!! U truly helped me out!!! Very well explained!!!
You're very welcome!
Thanks so much, I was so suffering without yoir video. It worked all well.
Very well done!! You made it easy for me to remember what the "smooth" washers are for! Thanks for posting. :)
Thanks for watching!
Awesome instructions. Thank you for sharing!
Your welcome!
Maybe an explanation of why you need the small extender piece right before attaching the pipe to the bottom of the sink rather than hooking it up directly. Also, the reason (when and where) you use the smooth washer vs the straight/flat washer. Great video that answered all the questions I did have.
Thank you! I think I can fix mine now! I will order the parts right now! And I love your assistant in the background LOL😂😂😂
You are so welcome!
Thank you! Kitchen sink is back in action 👍👍
