Dude, this was the most informative, easy to follow, pro tip heavy and no BS plumbing video I've ever seen. Thanks!
Thanks SuburbanHobbyist! Cheers!
I agree with you suburban hobbyist. He is straight to point and no bs and not too long.
@@PROSDIY what the piece u use to connect to the sink? my sink drain is small like 1" but abs is 1 1/2"
Agree! Really complete and thorough, but also concise.
The best I’ve seen for pea trap and drain adjustment; addresses code, as well. I wasted time before I finally found this.
Very much like the advice concerning what NOT to do as well as 'what if' - covering different scenarios and how to approach them.
Great video..no rambling on yet its packed with necessary info which is very well explained. The guy obviously knows his job.
I will use this video countless times in the future! Thank you!
Great explanation! Thanks for explaining all the sections/parts of the sink drain connection! Very helpful.
Great explanations: clear, concise, and informative.
you know your stuff bro, thanks for taking the time and explaining things in a simple yet comprehensive manner.
This is one of the best tutorials I’ve ever seen
Totally agree. I have watched a couple of videos on this topic and I was amazed at this tutorial! Absolutely the best one I have seen
Thank you very much, this is the best p-trap practical explanation I have found on the Internet. It answers so many questions.
I watched this video about 10 times because it is detailed and it was the most helpful, I'll be doing this work for the first time and now i feel confident i can do it. Than you
Good luck Jerry! Cheers!
Thanks for explaining and showing the way it connects to the main drain. Im doing this for the first time on my basement bath and this is extremely helpful for a diyer with very little plumbing experience who needs it to pass inspection. Great work.
Very informative, easy to understand, easy to follow.
I replaced a lead connected drum trap. The return to the wall side from p trap was nearly identical to yours. Thanks for the tips !!
Amazing and simple explanation.I really like the voice over narration of the video,it's clear and well explained.
Saved me a call out charge plus parts. I was thinking I'd have to change the whole basin but seems I can just buy my own drain pipe and follow your tutorial. You're doing amazing work by sharing your knowledge not only for free but in a very straight simple way without any angles. New subscriber here
Thank you for this video. I am renovating a downstairs master bathroom complex and adding a 3/4 bath. I've never done anything like this before. I licensed plumber has run the drains, lines, and vents, but I need to connect everything from the rough ins to the fixtures. This video was very helpful.
Nice tutorial video. It gives a nice explanation and breakdown of what and why to do things. I'm still a bit unclear calculating the tailpiece length so I have to keep watching it.
Excellent process, top demo of code conformity, no time wasting. He could work at my house, any day.
Thanks for making this video! My sink has been backing up and then taking forever to drain, I’ll be sure to rewatch this video while I redo the plumbing under the sink tomorrow!
Need help!
Need help! I have an inch and a half waist pipe Cummins the wall under my bathroom vanity there is a recoupling on the pipe attached to my p-trap. The connection from the wall is approximately an inch and a quarter short from the tailpiece. I am unable to unscrew the coupling from the waist pipe. Can I use a fernco fitting to make an easier connection. Or could I cut the coupling off and start from the pipe. I'm concerned about cutting the coupling I do not want to damage the threads on the pipe and I don't have any room up against the wall. A fernco I think will be the simplest solution. Thanks for your help
That was very helpful. Thank you for making it easy to understand for someone whose new to repairs.
Really helpful. Well done. Appreciate you!
Super clear explanation. Many thanks!
Thank you so much! This is the best break down explanation video I've found. Simple and easy!
Thank you Megan!
Very well explained ! I’ve learned a lot of important details that make all the difference at the end of the day. Thanks again, Have a good one!!
Just what I needed to fix my problem.
Thank you.
Well explained and expert advice. Great video. Thanks
Great video. Liked the explanation on siphoning risk and importance of venting. Example with water bottle was great.
Nice to see your method for setting up the ABS connections.
Halfway through mine drain install and wishing I’d watched your video first. Thanks for this!
Thanks for all the detailed information you have provided in this video. I like your way of explaining every point. Keep sharing such great videos in the future also.
I followed the recommended order and it worked out fine. The screw connection for the P-Trap nut is always tricky to get it started and threaded correctly but otherwise it was a no hitch install. Very nice video and clear, concise instructions.
wow ! That's the most valuable 10:32 mins spent on youtube. you're straight to the point and explained the process really well.
perfect explanation for the layman like . thanks for making simple to watch. cheers
Thanks, that was exactly the case I was looking for - mismatched axis between the drain and the sink
Thank you for the well documented video with great details
Can't thank you enough. I've done tons of these connections and only now see a few minor things I should have done differently.
This is a solid, thorough DIY video. Thanks guy
You have not only explained the work you are doing in plain and simple steps but also covered a lot more that I can relate with my scenario.
Thank you
5 stars ⭐️ video
Thank you for making this video. When I installed my new faucet a year or 2 ago the installation instructions said to use silicon caulk to seal the drain flange to the sink opening/drain hole. It was messy but worked. Fast forward to yesterday when the sink wouldn't drain. I undid all pea trap connections and cleaned out the clog, but in doing so the silicon unseated around the drain flange. Thanks for clearly showing how to apply the plumber's putty. It was easy and forms a better seal, I think. Also, the suggestion to seal the threads with teflon tape is a good one which I don't think the original installation instructions indicated. Suggestion: Another video recommended also using teflon tape on all pea trap connections as extra insurance against leaks, a step which you didn't do. Still, your video is very helpful. Thanks again.
This was so extremely helpful!! Thank you!
Great video, exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for the work!
This is how tutorial videos are done. You sir are the man. 👊🏻
Dude thank you! This video saved my holiday as I was able to quickly fix this leak with a house full of guests and get back to just visiting.
Well done, appreciate the detail
Tell them to install gfci under sink perfect video keep the good work !!!
Codes? I didn't know homeowners worried much about codes. Excellent video. I especially appreciated the explanations about the slope and pipe diameters. Just shows the difference between the homeowner diy guy and a pro who knows.
Thanks Charlie! Cheers 🍺
i not always a stickler for all rules but having moved my elderly relative into a place WHERE HOUSE FLIPPER apparently didn't THINK WAS IMPORTANT TO ADHERE TO LOCAL PROPERTY ETC N BUILDING CODES , ITS 4 YEARS DOWN THE ROAD , STILL HAVING TO REPLACE ALMOST EVERYTHING BUT THE WALLS , MITE HAVE DO THAT TO AT LEAST 1 SIDE, PORCH ADDITION FROM STORM, WIND, WATER N TREE DAMAGE NO INSURANCE
Superior tutorial. And so efficient! Thank you.
Thanks pi design!
For real.
Nice video. Nice use of the level to get it right. Almost everyone eyeballs it. Would like to see video install add on air vent.
Awsome! Your video is by far the most helpful I've seen in trying to figure out the leak under the bathroom sink. For me personally, I really appreciate knowing WHY 🤷♀️ I need a slight angle to the one pipe for drainage, not just "...well, because... you just DO!" 🤦♀️ 😒😠😡 Not that it has anything to do with the leak, I just wanted to thank you for just the right amount of info.
I've discovered my problem creating the leak and I'm off to get the missing (!) piece. Thanks so much!
Smiles from the southern California desert, MK 😁🏜

Like your style. Thanks for this.
agree with below commit ---- must informative and straight forward video thanks excellent!!
very helpful. Thank you.
Just replaced mine using your vid, thank you!!
Good teaching & presentation ...👍
Excellent video - just what I am working on. Actually installing a new faucet but thought that I may as well install the included sink drain. Unfortunately the pee trap is glued and has no adjustment so I can't get the new sink drain in. So it's the old drain or a new pee trap I guess.
Fantastic teaching. Thx.
Thanks for sharing such an amazing video. I must say you are doing a great job. Keep doing such hard work. Your videos are very informative. Keep posting! Good Luck with your upcoming updates.
Great job. I have to do this tomorrow morning. Big help.

Excellent
big help bro.. thanks
awesome.
Nicely done
Thank you for this video I know what to do now
Excellent.thanks
Very informative. Maybe you should add a note about rotating a 1/4 the pipe into the elbow of the last joint.
the video is clear easy to follow, one question, do you have to use the cement when connecting the pipes?
Thanks Kelly! Yes, if you use ABS tubing as in the video you have to use cement (normally yellow). If you use PVC you'll have to use a primer (normally purple) and a cement (normally grey) to connect the tubing and fittings. Thanks for the question!
Thanks
Great content! 🙌🏽👍🏽💪🏽🤟🏽
Thank you
Nice Job ! The whirlpool when the waters draining indicates insufficient venting.
The new one looks way better than the old one.
I have watched a shit-ton of these videos and I'm a DYI person and this was awesome. Make more buddy..
great job on the video, thanks
In the video you describe 1/4 inch slope and state that 1/4 inch slope per foot is the maximum slope per code. On your final adjustment, you used a level on the trap arm and adjusted it using the trap adapter on the tailpiece. In that step, did you attempt to dead level the trap arm and are you saying even if it’s not perfect level it’s cool as long as the slope doesn’t exceed 1/4 inch per foot as you pointed out can be determined by staying within the outer line on the bubble?
Is level preferred, without any slope, to maintain the best trap seal?
Super helpful. Much appreciated. Especially the tip about measuring the height (8 minute mark). I still wonder about the type of pipe to use. I chose to use the same ABS pipe that you demonstrated, but is it superior to PVC? Maybe it doesn’t matter.
Good job
