Was this helpful for you? What method do you normally try to clear up drains that you have found to last longest? I appreciate all of your feedback!

Thank you. I’m an almost 70 year old woman and your video made this easy peasy🎉

Thanks for taking the time to make the video. Truly appreciate the value it brings to homeowners. I would give two pieces of constructive feedback, not criticisms at all.

1. Use gloves. Trust me, I'm not trying to be a nanny here, but just giving a public service announcement to anyone watching this. Drain and waste lines are the nastiest, most bacteria-ridden places in a home. You crack open a drain line & you are exposing yourself to a thriving colony of bacteria that is just looking for an open wound to get into and give you a serious infection. Don't handle drains or drain line content with bare hands.

2. The method shown in this video is going to work for probably 75% of vanity sink clogs and is very valuable, with good explanations. The other 25% of the clogs are going to be in the wall and will require a snake to get blockage cleared. With as clearly as you explain things, it would be a great benefit to have you show them how to properly use a snake.

Again, none of this is criticism and I greatly appreciate the time you have put into your content to share.

Cheers.

Your directions are so good that I, a 77 year old woman with no plumbing experience, was able to clean 47 year old sink. And put it back together. Thanks!

Bless you, Adam! I'm an 80 y/o great grandma and your method worked perfect for me! I fix and repair as many things as I can in my house and car over the years and it feels great to do it myself! I even learned to replace my car's headlights!

Hello, I agree with @elainesam7562. I am also an older lady and the instruction you showcased here was excellent. The hardest part of the unclogging of the drain was getting down under the sink to check the trap!

[sonjadidyk-tncc]

Thanks for being so calm. I am usually a bag of nerves when I have to do this. and it is challenging to put things back together.

Your title of your video is 100% accurate. It caught my eye as I was looking for videos on how to unclog a bathroom sink. I'm so glad I spent the 8 minutes to watch it. I was surprised how incredibly easy it was to fix, and it didn't cost a penny. Thank you so much for that!!

[alexgamez]

Thank you, as a woman i find a lot of help watching your videos ❤

[kimberlyreid]

Thanks for making this video. I put in a maintenance request at my apartment building over a month ago for my clogged drain and they still haven't came to clear it. The clog was a big wad of hair and who knows what else and it was mostly in the part where the plug was. I Don't have a man as I live alone so I'm pretty pleased I was able to do this myself! If I can do this so can anyone else!

[bkbaxterNYnowIN]

Thank you! This video gave me exactly what I needed to know to complete the job of clearing our slow-draining bathroom sink in less than an hour. As a bonus, it turns out that the pull stop has never worked to seal the drain; it was connected, but not at the right angle. I was able to fix this as well. I really appreciate your taking the time to share your knowledge. Since I couldn't see what I was doing, the video was invaluable!

[laurenlandry]

Thank you for posting this! I followed the same exact steps and now water is running freely through the pipe. You helped me save a ton of money.

[Marowyn]

I've seen several of your videos now, and they're really helpful! I love your clear explanations and how you get right to the point.

[another_jt]

Nice video. My only suggestion would be to start with removing the plug and checking for the clog there. So often that completely solves my issues without the extra steps of removing the trap.

[stidwell]

I think your videos are thorough and quite understandable. Thank you for the great instructions!

[MGMOZfan]

Thank you for this video! I did this several years ago but needed a good visual demonstration to refresh my memory before clearing the drain again. I'm good to go once again! I appreciate you!

[davidh]

Best video I’ve seen. Clear instructions, terrific camera views. This man is awesome. Thank you!

[keith]

This did the trick! My drain was just like his; the Drano didn't work so I just disconnected the P-trap (clog wasn't there) went up to the next pipe (clog wasn't there) and finally, the stopper/plunger (which was coated in gunk). I cleaned everything, re-assembled the 3 easy pieces and it works great. Thank you!

Great video man explained everything better than most “Master Plumbers”

[mildredmckenzie]

My hubbie and I were able to unplug our plugged drain. You saved us lots of money! God bless you!😊
