Your instructional videos are some of the most professional, well-done videos on all of YT - thank you for all your hard work!

[Kitsum]

Thanks! My English is pretty weak, but it's very interesting to watch and listen to you.

[aadsfawgwefaf]

The videos in this channel is surprisingly soothing to watch. It's just great to see a pro explain his work and make it look like a piece of cake.

[rudyardwilliams]

I enjoy watching all your videos. you make plumbing seems easy just because you are so experienced.

Great video and thanks for showing how to do the hardwired connection with MC cable! My current (and eventually to be replaced) garbage disposal has this sort of connection and all the other instruction videos I've found only explain using a plug-in connection.

You’re a very handy guy! 💯 Wish my husband was as handy as you 💯 your videos are very helpful and much needed by a ton of people 💯

Great Video, thank you for pointing out the things I could run into, very insightful. Also so easy to understand your tutorial. I am off to install!!!!

[russkelley]

Thank you! Also, good idea to tape the tool for future use.

[tazifaical]

Thank you for you time and explanation! Very useful video.

I recently discovered your channel and I'm already a fan.
That said I do have a request for you to make a video please.

Maybe you can do a video going on different tools and a General guidelines and best practices of the plumbing trade.

For each example How much to tighten water pipes how much plumbers tape to apply on a fitting. How to fix or replace . What all tools should a home owner have at a minimum and what all tools do you recommend the DYI home plumber. Just things of that sort

[serjitgill]

Very neatly done
Much appreciated on ur step by step explanation

[chrissartain]

Well done, to the point and complete. Thank you !!

[brianszanyi]

Nice job I just recently installed one no problem it's just gets a little confusing routing the drain out with the fittings and on in all my job looks professional and I watched you how you did it and will use it as reference God bless thank you 🙏

[tomnguyen]

What a good DYI video and thank you for sharing!😊

[dkgrace]

Wow, awesome instructions. Thank you.

I would have rotated the switch horizontally so that the cable to the disposal would be routed to the left around the backside of the sink area. The disposal connection would use a 90 degree elbow connector in stead of a straight connector. This would give a direct approach to the disposal.
The reason for this approach gives more room for your spouse to stock pile under the disposal, and they will do it!

After almost 50 years of home ownership, I finally deleted my garbage disposal. I found myself just running it just to see if it was working! I installed a double screen basket in the sink. It's not that much of an issue to empty them, or actually, just the top basket. I have yet a need to empty the bottom basket.

Best part is when you check for grade 👌
