Installing The Bathroom Vanity

Now that the carcass of the vanity is finished, it can be installed and the sink put in and hooked up. Like I said in the video, I need to get this cabinet in place to finish the tile base on the floor which wraps around the bottom of the vanity. In upcoming video(s) I'll build and install the three drawers, and make the drawer fronts that match.

I really like your plumbing set-up. It's a great idea to put the pipes as close to the back wall as possible therefore giving room for good storage in the cabinet. I've seen so many vanities where the plumber took the easy way out and left very little room under the sink due to pipes protruding out.

As you were installing the vanity, I was thinking that it really seems short, which got me to thinking about how I might like to make my own counters & vanity a bit taller than normal. I'm only 6' tall, but I've always found standard height to be a pain in the back when doing dishes or shaving, etc.

Seeing the sink in place made it clear why it seemed short, though. That's a very nice choice for a sink, too.

Outstanding! Right to the point, well planned, no waste of time, excellently done video. Sir, you are a pro and I'm building my vanity cabinet after your instructions. Thanks and, please, keep teaching us.

Long story short, you rescued me. Thank you.

Looks nice John.  I also prefer latex caulk because if anything has to come apart, it is much easier to remove.

Thank you for showing us the install, it's good to see you go from the building to the install 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I see one of these in my future... making notes. Thanks John.

Everything you do looks so easy to do that I want to do it myself, but I know that I'm fooling myself. This is not that easy, you are just very good at it. Excellent result so far though. That vanity looks really nice.

What an awesome sink!  It'll be really easy to clean. Great build and the glued down wooden blocks on the floor are genius.

Polyurethane construction adhesive?! Who would have thought!

You really do love that stuff. I keep imagining bizarre scenarios where it is the last adhesive one would expect, and imagining you using it there. :)

Thanks John..I would use your ideas to try and build my own vanity..God bless you for sharing.

John, that is a beautiful sink top. You do such nice work! I love the full drawer vanity! The space under most vanities is really not very useful. Excellent job!

I'm glad I discovered your instructions. Very helpful. I went to your YT page and don't see the video showing your drawer assembly. What's the URL, please?

Thank you for this video. I have a sink that's not flush to the wall. I'm going to use the piece of wood system to level it. Can you please make a video to show how you install the baseboard around the plumbing behind the toilet? Thanks

I wish I had known it was acceptable to use latex caulk for the sink to cabinet connection a few weeks ago. After installing an undermount sink with silicone, I discovered a defect in the sink and had to replace it. Getting it back off the wood counter was a nightmare!

I watched your first three videos, Building The Bathroom Vanity Cabinet, Staining And Spray Finishing & Installing The Bathroom Vanity, then I go looking for the video to build and install the three drawers, and make the drawer fronts that match. I can't seem to find the last video. Can you post a link please?

[Pletharoe]

Love watching you work. very clear and methodical. No way on earth would you be allowed a standard wall electrical socket next to a basin in the UK though!

Why not just finish the floor system so water, bugs, and trash doesn't make its way under the tile?

great vlogs but would love to see the draws and doors been made and put on, ,
