water leaking from kitchen sink drain fixed

[@happygilmore7879]

Helped me fix my problem. Bonus conversation is the best comedy one could ask for. Made my night. Thanks Steve!

[@Pyridox]

Holy cow, what a jury rig job someone did putting all of that plumbers putty that was on there. I like that type of basket strainer that you used the ones with the collar. Good repair.

[@stevenlavimoniere]

+Pete Ciallella i like these basket strainer also

[@lwittma]

Thank you so much! Just fixed a simple problem by myself for free! Single and resourceful in Michigan!

[@arniegrote319]

[@stevenlavimoniere]

+Arnie Grote some of the stuff i see

[@mitchellpurelife]

[@stevenlavimoniere]

+mitchellpurelife lol is all i can say

[@LexVance]

Ol side job Mcgees first job in 2016. Nice one Steve! The gundy, the choochin was all there.

[@stevenlavimoniere]

+Lex Vance ya he might have came out of mamas basement to try his hand in plumbing . side job mcgee is a dumb ass

[@franciscoflores2862]

ha,ha,ha,ha that's a good one. 25 years plumbing and I thought I had seen it all. good job Steve. saved the guy some money not doing a new two part waste,hopefully you don't have to come back.

[@stevenlavimoniere]

+Francisco Flores when you think you have seen it all them bam there it is someones crazy idea lol

[@BBYERS27]

I agree with Steve on the dogs biting you when you turn your back to walk away. My theory is that they realize it's now or never if I'm going to bite him, so they go for it. Nice work cleaning up someone else's mess. Steve is working again....

[@stevenlavimoniere]

+BBYERS27 i am carefull of dogs now been bit 1 to many times

[@lancerx1759]

God Bless you and your Dog, When doing yourself and those who can't afford to hire someone its Great to get Help for things like your doing, Thanks for the Help !!

[@sebbyfazzino9665]

this is a good video just to show everyone out there who pays people to do jobs and they never check their work. I just replaced my basket strainer but I needed to cut it out with a sawzall

[@kroozman10]

Can't believe the putty! You said you don't like plastic for waste piping. What would be the best material to use in this case? I'd like to change mine from plastic.

[@stevenlavimoniere]

+kroozman10 if you see in my other videos i use thick glued plastic all the way up to the basket strainers it will never leak that way all these compression fitting will leak when the hot water hits them over time the waste elbows i am talking about

[@AmigaA-or2hj]

steven lavimoniere Thanks for the tip!

[@MarzNet256]

That putty and tape jobbie takes the cake for the most half-assed "plumbing" job I've ever seen. I guess there was not enough putty left for the basket strainer. Dude must have been high.

[@michaelpadovani9566]

That might be the craziest repair of the year and it's only January!!

[@stevenlavimoniere]

+Michael Padovani you might be right

[@1988MowerMan]

What a mess. Good repair Steve.

[@stevenlavimoniere]

+1988MowerMan sure was a mess

[@kemonpapadimitriou9772]

Good call doing both sides! When I see those piece of crap strainers I don't even mess around take those suckers out!!

[@stevenlavimoniere]

+Kemon Papadimitriou not a fan of cheap basket strainers ,i like to change them also

[@jeffmoss26]

What a mess...nice work Steve.

[@stevenlavimoniere]

+Jeff Moss i agree what a mess

[@randykocian4738]

Wow! Welcome to putty mountain. I've heard of a little spit & glue but... Nice one, Steven. You saved what you could. She's a licker, mama.

[@stevenlavimoniere]

+Randy Kocian some of the stuff i see

[@Dcthetruth85]

Is it the same size strainer on a commercial kitchen? Say like a nursing home.

[@bg147]

I need to get this type of strainer. The ones with the big ring collar and washer like the one you removed always seem to leak on me.

[@stevenlavimoniere]

+bg147 these ball lock work well

[@phillipgroom9187]

He was a contractor out of Canada and he had a tv show where he went behind other contractors who did bed work and he made it right ....or fixed it correctly.

[@stevenlavimoniere]

+Phillip Groom never seen him

[@TheOregonOutlaw]

Good Job Steve!! Damn you were LUCKY there was no Gorilla Glue~! LOL I once had to follow some idiot who used fiberglass and resin, and he wrapped the entire drain and facing portion of the sink. I felt like I was at a wrecking yard trashing a corvette! Gloves and mask ~ definite Next Level and maybe the one after that!

[@stevenlavimoniere]

+TheOregonOutlaw lol the stuff we see

[@BurtBowers]

Guy must been a real shoe maker to patch up the pipes like that with putty actually reminds me when I bought my house my sink pipes was jerry rigged with an accordian pipe silver seaze smeared all over the pipes I tore everything apart & bought all correct pipes made it all new again though it shows that there are shoe makers out there don't have a clue what they are doing...

[@harrydickson4575]

[@Fireship1]

Plumbers putty? A real hack would have used duct tape! Where was his DIY pride? Lol. Good fix Steve. It just proves that some people shouldn't mess with plumbing! You should start a wall of shame. This could be your first entry of the new year!

Steve, the person that used the putty and tape to re[pair the sink issue should subscribe to your channel to learn the proper methods to go about making repairs the right way! Cheers!

[@stevenlavimoniere]

I know that Dogs can tell if a Person Does Drugs. I tried Pot Years ago, but Never Again. I don't really like alcohol unless I have a Bad Cold or Flu.

[@sku32956]

wow that was amazing

[@JLB456]

Every sink I do when they're home. Yada yada yada, their life story, yada yada yada, idiotic questions. Why would you ask to use the bathroom sink? WTH does the bathroom have to do with the damn kitchen. I pray they'll be busy and just let me work. That putty is about the stupidest thing I have ever seen. How long did he think that would last, a week?

[@stevenlavimoniere]

+Stabby The Clown it was a rental . so maybe the renter tryed to fix it not sure ..

I actually laughed at this one when I saw what you had to work with there.. good repair, thanks for posting

[@stevenlavimoniere]

[@stevenlavimoniere]

+gary smith i have been bit quite a bit so i get learry

[@skyym3629]

From experience, Doctors, Lawyers, Dentists and the majority of really rich people are the cheapest, penny-pinching, unbelievably money-grubbing people I have ever worked for in my short 35 + years of service. Remember this when you go into a doctor's office and he looks at you for 15 minutes and charges $200.00. There is a reason health insurance has gone through the roof in the last decade, besides that idiot Barry Soebarkah (Obama).

[@russellhancock9765]

Lazy Person.

[@jonhexom8310]

What a mess. Nice job Steve.
