[@R1fleman1984]

Very detailed and educational, Thank you!

[@Charles-rt8ze]

Thank you so much for posting this tutorial! One of the best I've seen and it's perfect for my current situation looking to replace a leaking pedestal sink with a vanity sink. Could you clarify the need for the shims between the vanity and the wall? Are those just filling the natural gaps or are you intentionally using them as spacers? And do the screws go through them or do they sit above the screws at whatever depth fills the natural gap?

[@josetobar9118]

Thanks for your information.

[@getitdonehomerepair]

My pleasure

[@darrylt5300]

I would have used the two blots you took out to hold the new Vanity in place

Some people use clear silicone instead of the puddy is that a better choice or is it bad? Great video btw

[@getitdonehomerepair]

I always use the putty. Thanks for the visit.

[@getitdonehomerepair]

Hahaha . Thank you I think?

[@jamespolizos1689]

You can also use plumbers tape on the threads to make good seal

[@msheart2]

Thank you for your demonstration. I wouldn’t use the pop up I use a strainer in the drain to prevent hair and fur from going down the drain clogging it over time, I suppose there’s a way to seal a cap or something to close off the opening in the drain pipe where the popper works from?

[@jnatdea15]

What did you do with the holes made by the hanger screws to hold up the pedestal bowl? Did you fill them? Why did you have to drill new holes to secure the vanity? Thanks for the info.

[@getitdonehomerepair]

The holes was just filled. We drilled new holes because they needed to be in another location.

[@dsicilian88]

Ty so much🙏🙏

Are you in MA. You sound bostonian to me😁 Thank you for this video. I'm going to attempt this on my own.

Actually I'm from New Jersey but people tell me that I do have a Boston accent. Thanks for watching and listening.

[@msheart2]

@@getitdonehomerepair I thought you sounded more New Yorker ;)

[@adrianparra7739]

Thank you so much. Great video!! So you don’t have to caulk the back of countertop against the sheetrock?

[@getitdonehomerepair]

If it is sheet rock I would recommend to silicone. This one was tiled all the way to the floor.

[@Musicislove93]

Besides the vanity and faucet, was there anything additional you needed to purchase? Can you reuse pipes and supply lines?

[@getitdonehomerepair]

You can reuse the pipes and trap but you will need to change the gaskets .

[@shwetadesai857]

From where did you purchase your vanity

[@KatherynKallay]

Coldest

[@susanli129]

what is dimension of the vanity

[@shwetadesai857]

What is the size of?

[@shwetadesai857]

Where is vanity from?

[@getitdonehomerepair]

I got this one from Home Depo

[@pennychase2421]

I'm having a hard time trying to pull the pedestal out so I can get to the plumbing! Any pointers from anyone? I don't want to break it, so afraid of tugging too hard on the base.

[@getitdonehomerepair]

If you took off the screws and it is still stuck check to see if there is silicone holding it in place. If you still can't move it send me a picture I'll try to help.

[@pennychase2421]

@@getitdonehomerepair Thank you so much! What screws? I'm just trying to pull the pedestal back so I can see where the plumbing is leaking.When I pull the pedestal backwards, it won't budge. Again, thank you for your time!!! 🙂

[@getitdonehomerepair]

@@pennychase2421 Take a look at my video at the 5:00 mark. You will see 2 - 9/16 nuts and washers . That is what holds the sink to the wall. Keep me posted.

[@pennychase2421]

@@getitdonehomerepair Will do, thanks so much again!!

[@pennychase2421]

Ahhhhh, I see! Yours was all one piece? My pedestal is separate from the bowl...2 pieces. So I'm not trying to remove the bowl, I'm just trying to get to the plumbing pipes to see where the leak is coming from behind the pedestal part. Do I still need to remove it as a whole for that? Thanks again!!

[@abbibrennen2549]

Thanks for the video. I cannot stand Pedestal sinks. Do not understand why anyone would want a sink like that, no room for all the needs that one has for grooming! Like the accent!

[@hchayes9431]

Of course.....we are doing the opposite....we are removing a vanity sink and installing a pedestal sink.....

[@Jokerpoker246]

Great explanation from start to finish. Great Job.
