YouTube really is amazing. Took the old one out, cleaned up the old caulk, installed the new one. It only took like 45 minutes and I saved probably $200 on the plumber call. My son came down asking why I was under the sink and I let him hand me tools. He felt like he was helping. Small win for the weekend but I'll take it.
Dude, YouTube has saved me so much money on stuff like this. Plus now you can tell your kids you fixed it yourself, which is half the battle.
Nice work! The hardest part is always just starting. I put off our bathroom reno for like 6 months and then knocked it out in a weekend. That caulk cleanup is no joke though. Did you use silicone or acrylic?
Dude, that's awesome! YouTube tutorials have saved me so many times. Did you end up keeping all the original hardware or did you have to swap anything out? I'm terrified of plumbing stuff but maybe I can tackle our downstairs bathroom sink next.
Ha, the 'didn't flood anything' bar for home repair success. I think I've set that same low bar for myself about 100 times. But seriously, that's a legit accomplishment. How much did you save compared to calling a plumber?

That's awesome man, nice work getting it done without calling a plumber. I always feel like a genius when I tackle something like that, even if it takes me twice as long as it should.
