Great video! Ray's minimum viable product here is 10x better than just about any prior repair I've seen in a rental property.
Isn't that the truth sir... The stuff I see embarrasses me half the time.
Love your method. I did one in a white cabinet, using a white laminated panel. Tricky to avoid chipping. Then along the front I used the white vinyl tape to clean up the edge. I really like your 2 panel method.
Thanks! Any method is better than no method. I've grown pretty comfortable with this one.
Cutting from the reverse side helps prevent chipping
I used you style, then put large peel and stick rubber flooring on top and caulked the edges to make everything pretty
Even better!
Love it “you going to need a skill saw” I thought I was the only one that refers to a circular saw as a skill saw🤣great vid great tips thx👏👏
wtf is a "circular saw?"
Yep! I'm still being stubborn on that one.
May need a "Saws All" before I'm done 😂
Excellent progress
Thanks!
Thanks for creating this video. I have to follow up with the woman who wants me to do this. I had watched another video where a guy had cut the board where the supply and drain lines are coming through. He marked the wood and drilled the holes for those and then cut through the middle of the holes so it would match up perfectly. He put blocking underneath it to secure it. Sorry you had to go and buy a cabinet to create this video, but appreciate you doing it.
No reason to be sorry sir. I love doing it. I used money from affiliates and RUclips ad revenue for it, just as I did for buying the camera and audio equipment. Thank you for being a part of it.
I had 2 cabinet base replacements this week. Both were rotted and required us to install supports and we used a solid piece for the entire base. We specifically use wood or stainless steel screws we always seal and silicone all edges. The type of environments we usually find these type of repairs are were the under side of the cabinet base must be cleaned out and disinfected.
Your solution is definitely well thought out and great temp repair solution 👍
Sounds like some solid work
Great information, the one thing I would point out is doing these with the plumbing in, which is kinda similar to how you do it, but can get tricky due to the plumbing not allowing you to manuver the wooden pieces so easily. But I like how you use the router to take out a portion and allow for a lip to help hold the new base.
Thanks!
This is the video I've been waiting for. Like the process!!
Sorry it took so long to make. I ended up just having to buy a cabinet so I could make the video. I haven't had one of these on the job in a while.
Just did one today for myself. It was a nice little job. Thanks for the bulletproof version.
You're welcome!
Awesome content and tips! Thank you
You're welcome!
I've done a bunch of these...great process usually takes me one hour but depends on the mess under the sink like water damage
Yeah they don't always go smoothly for sure
Another informative video. Thanks for sharing. I'll definitely be watching this again.
Awesome!
Watching this right now! Been waiting for this video since you teased it in so many videos!
I know right! I've been promising this video forever but I just haven't gotten any sync bottom replacements in quite a while. Sometimes your clients figure out that you have a particular skill so they have you go fix all of the houses that have that particular issue and you get really good at it and then you get all the houses fixed and there just aren't any more to work on until somebody new has their sink leaking again. Ultimately, I finally just had to decide to go buy a used cabinet so I could make the video.
I like this approach!
Thanks! I think it's just about the best and most efficient process.
I inspected a property today for a move-out. When I was looking under the kitchen sink I saw a round white plastic thing in the back and didn't know what it was. I picked it up to examine it and there was labeling on it saying that it was a "flooding sensor". Had a nice little laugh and it made me think of this awesome video.
That's pretty interesting! I assume it's battery operated and just lets out an alarm if it gets wet? Sounds like something that could be upsold to the property managers.
Sounds great. But how do you know that the sensor is working 🤔
@@johnwquick3616 Probably with another sensor! ;-)
Every handyman does it a little different and every cabinet is in different condition. There is no wrong or right way as long as the job is done right and looks good to the client. With that being said if a cabinet looked like that I would not have cut it out. I'd get a sheet of 4x8 Revolution Ply from Lowe's for $20. It's very thin a 5 MM and 1 side has a vinyl and looks really good and doesn't stick up. I also wouldn't seal the bottom. I'd rather the bottom get water damage than the sides or back since the bottom is a lot easier/cheaper to fix. Again we all do things different and just trying to help each other
Well that sounds like a perfectly viable plan too!
Excellent! Thank you very much for this video.
You're welcome!
Excellent!
24:36 what, follow the yellow brick road?
Yep that's exactly what I said!
I like your content. 👍. I do these like doing a drywall patch., Cut a sq. piece of 1/2” plywood that’s 2” larger than the rotted part. Then lay that over the rotted part and trace it. Cut that out, add backing on at least 2, or all sides that were just cut. secure with screws, and screw in the patch piece. At this point, you could putty & paint, as you did, or, install a new piece of 1/4” or 3/8” over top of it all, using spray glue and pin nails. Paint is optional.
Another option I just thought of, would be, patch as stated above, and spray glue 1/16” PVC sheeting on top, and caulk edges. Its waterproof, flexible, and durable. Havent done the pvc yet, but I will for the next one. I think its flexible enough to bend to install it where there is a style. GOing to try the PVC sheet when this comes up in the future.
Awesome, thanks! 😎
Quick tip when measuring cabinets. Some cabinet makers make their measurements in millimeters (even in the US!) having a tape with mm has helped me a bunch when it comes to cabinet work
I'm comfortable with both systems. I've worked at a few of those cabinet shops in the US that use metric. I think metric is clearly a better choice, but I already have a lifetime using both so I don't give much thought to it.
For this particular cabinet (no center vertical obstruction where the doors meet) you could've fit the plywood in as a full piece (not 2 halves), right?
Yes, I was using a cabinet with no stile to demonstrate my process for a cabinet does. It is the 2 piece process but easier for you to see without a piece of wood in the way.
Another great video brotha
Thanks!
Great Video Brotha 👊🏼
Thanks!
More great tips!
Thanks!
Damn, life is so much easier in metric.
Both are easy for me, but I would agree that metric is a better system. I've worked at many cabinet shops where we built everything in metric. Even if the plans were provided in feet and inches we immediately converted the plans to metric before we got started.
Yes!
Nice video... not a 30 mins job forsure set up measure cut out old install new and paint... might be a 1.5 hour stop at that house easy... but clean work
It's less than 30 minutes when you've done a couple dozen if you show up with everything you need. That's the beauty of having a process. Of course my first few took hours each and did not have my current quality.
"Give yourself a fist on the back"
Dude, why do you hate us? 😂
Lol
Do you ever give them a slight tilt to the front for water exiting out the front? I love the porch paint idea!!! What do you do when the plumbing comes through the floor?
I have not bothered tilting them to the front. I'm sure it wouldn't hurt. The best way to deal with plumbing coming through the floor is to remove the shut off valves and drill holes and then cover the holes with those little round snap-on covers that go around the pipe. I get that question a lot, but I almost never see that here in Tucson. It must be a regional thing. It's not that I've never seen it, but it isn't very common.
@bulletproofhandyman here in Kansas we have basements and cold walls in the winter so a lot of the plumbing is kept on inside walls and brought up through the floor. Royal pain in the butt working with plumbing holes. Plus water ends up under cabinet. Ugh.
Thanks for the info. Makes sense. I like finding out different things can be if they're not in the South.
Nice system and job. I assume you wouldn't cut the piece in half if it didn't have a center stile divider since 1/2 birth is plenty strong, so you did it for demonstration purposes.
Only thing I'd probably add is some small pieces to shim the back so its not level to force the water forward like the pipes that need 1/8 to 1/4 slope, otherwise if its level the water will spread evenly and just stand instead of running down forward to be visible as soon as the leak occurs.
Yes, that was for demonstration purposes only. I used a cabinet without a center stile just to make the video more clear.
There is usually all the plumbing coming out from the floor that you need to cut the new bottom into 3 pieces .
I've heard a few guys say the same thing. I don't have that problem here in Arizona very often. I would say more than 90% Of my rentals do not have any pipes coming up from the floor. It's a rare exception to the rule here.
I do have some questions. You painted the sides of the wood and later caulked the holes ans seam and then painted everything and you reckon 30 minutes from start to finish. That's quick drying paint and caulk.
The cement and deck paint that I use dries very quickly, less than 5 minutes to be ready for another coat. The caulk is ready for paint almost immediately if you have a light touch. Maybe 5 minutes for that as well.
Will a oscillating tool work instead of a router? Or maybe a jigsaw?
Yep those would all work
Ever get pushback for the bottom not being flush? Great video
No, but I offer an alternative if it's a house that's nice enough for the owner to care about that.
@@bulletproofhandyman exactly my thought.
Do you have an introduction letter “basic outline” to follow?
I'll add one to the next newsletter
@@bulletproofhandyman I just signed up for your newsletter this week or weekend so how often do you put one out?
How about the stile between the doors??
This process accommodates the stile. I used one without a stile so you could see better.
What about using that liquid flashing instead of porch paint...especially when plumbing up through floor? Maybe could seal around pipes?
That sounds like a very viable idea too
Awesome content. You charge this $200 labor repair and $50 materials in addition to the $125 trip fee, correct? Thanks, Ray.
Just a flat $250
Hi
What was the cost
to repair on this small job?
I do these for $250 each including materials
Why wouldn’t you just slide the right panel in from the left side to avoid the hinge ?
Because I cut my panels oversize so I would have had to tent up the middle In order to get the leverage to pop them both into place together.
Wish you showed the process when the drain and supply lines come through the bottom of the cabinet.
I don't ever have those here. The only real difference would be that you would need to measure and cut some holes for them And then use one of those beauty collars around the pipe to cover the hole.
Great info. How much do you charge for this?
Haha. Just be patient Paul and the answer will come 😅
I was pretty sure I mentioned it in the video, but I charge about $250 for this, including materials. Maybe just a little bit more.
Audio a bit gargly, might want to look into that
Audio issues have followed me forever. This is a brand new Rode Wireless setup. Not pro stuff but high end amateur. It's just the funny price the universe makes me pay for finding a moderate amount of success on RUclips.
@@bulletproofhandyman id be looking further down the chain, maybee encode point.
just follow it step by step till you find the problem
That's the funny part. I do that and I fix the problem. Then another new problem pops up. In the beginning it was just cheap equipment so I bought better equipment. Then it turned out my better equipment produced better audio but it wasn't in sync. So my new problem was editing and lining up the audio sync. Eventually it became clear that my new equipment was also still not as good as it should be. So I upgraded the equipment. That came with new software and I had software issues As it pertains to the audio. Finally, I borrowed a very nice Sennheiser wireless set but that eventually had to be returned. Now I have the new Rode setup which was doing a really great job until yesterday. Oh yeah, I also experienced some syncing and editing issues That turned out to be caused by wearing wireless earbuds while I was editing.
Anyways, I'll eventually get to the point where I'm just using a good Sennheiser wireless setup now that I'm decent at the editing part. In the meantime, it's just more of a running inside joke between me and the universe where the universe provides me with a successful RUclips channel, but the price I have to pay is that it will throw every audio issue in the book at me so that I can't ever quite reach the point where I just feel confident about my audio all the time. I never really have any video issues! Just audio!
@@bulletproofhandyman yeh the problem is probably not the quality of the equipment as such.
as far as wireess anything.
avoid wireless as much as possible, put your faith in solid copper.
.
yes somtimes we need wireless.
.
i think you may find that one wireless device is interfering with another.
.
one of the problems with the non specialist wireless brands, like Rode, is that they run bluetooh between the pack and the reciever.
.
the better wireless brands run straight FM signal between the pack and the reciever, much longer range, cleaner audio and less "other issues"
.
All sorts of digital equipment especially phones radiates energy that can interfeer with audio.
.
keep all other digital gear away from your audio
those replies coming from wonks who never worked with their hands
Fun fact. If you listen on 2x speed it's Ben Shapiro does handyman jobs. 😂
I suppose I don't mind being compared to him. I don't love everything about him but he's a solid dude for the most part.
Why is it every time I get one of these it's a freaking corner and I have to do geometry?!?!
Haha, there not as easy!
