How to Install a Bathroom Sink Faucet and Drain | A Complete Guide
After 30 years, my mother in laws bathroom sink faucet has finally been updated. The faucet had tons of corrosion and rust. So every time you brushed your teeth or washed your face, water was leaking into the base cabinet, causing some significant damage.
While the base cabinet does need to be fixed, I wanted to tackle the cause rather than the effect.
It took some banging, some breaking and some finessing, but I was able to get this faucet in place and it truly elevated the space!
I hope you enjoy this video. God bless! Peace!

My mother in law has never used a bidet before, so thanks to a gift from #LUXEBidet, I installed one in her half bath. With patience and attention, you can easily install this bidet and any other bidet you may own. Most bidets are the exact same concept of installation with maybe one or two differences, so please don’t be intimidated. This happens to be one of the easiest bidets installations e...

Excellent. I did not know how to put the tape on right. Did it sorta ok for the last 40 years. lol You have made the world a better place. :)
I got this model. And I turned my water valve all the way to the right but the tank after I flush keeps refilling does that mean the water is still on????
@@Pursuitofhappiness__ Hey! That means that your valve needs to be replaced.
@@Pursuitofhappiness__ if you’re in a house, then shut off the main water supply
Only cold water?? No thanks.
@@fchiang7190 Yeah I want to get the temperature control one. That cold water on my butt is excruciating. 😅
Man I appreciate the walk through it was huge help God bless I'll definitely be subscribing 👍🏻
@@Live4-christ All praises be to God. I love you. Have a great day!
Just installed this today,... thank you very much for your video it helped immensely.
This was so clear and concise. I’ve debating getting one since I was worried about installation but you made it look so straightforward
@@eccentricstate Yes it’s easier than people think. Definitely worth the buy!
LOL. I LOVE IT! YOU ROCK BROTHER!
"Bam and start washing yo a**" 😂😂😂
You’re a legend
@@Bobby.B619Thanks bro.
Thank you for this video. It really helped me a lot. I bought two for our bathrooms and needed a step by step. This was great.
@@TrippyMermaid You’re welcome!
Excellent!!! You need to get Brondell to sponsor you for your easy step-by-step video that covers all the details. Thank you!!!

Great video! I now have the courage to install it in my own home..
@@felinefriend22 😺😺
I used this installation video and, unfortunately, had catastrophic results. I did as instructed but when I needed to replace a fixed pipe line from the wall to the T-junction with a shorter compression pipe, the ~30 year-old CPVC inside the wall snapped at the lightest turn (supported with both hands too) of the wrench and flooded the bathroom. I put a towel and finger in the pipe until maintenance could come and turn the water off. This unfortunately burst a pipe in the apartment below and flooded it. They were on vacation. This isn't the first time this complex has had pipes burst like this (my landlord literally has a box under her desk of all the busted CPVCs and showed me), but I fear I'll be held liable. I'd recommend mentioning to first-timers to make sure the water to the unit/house is turned off completely and not just to the toilet, and to be very, very careful around CPVC, especially old CPVC as it gets increasingly brittle with age.
This has to be one of the BEST step by step instructions i experienced 💯👏🏾
@@NJGirl321 That makes me happy! 😊
Good job!
Thanks!❤
How did you connect the hot water because most toilets don't have hot water connection. So, does your bidet have the hot and cold ability?
@@rickyD1able No my bidet didn’t have the temperature control feature, but if you do, you can run the flexible hose to the hot water supply under your sink. Depending on your sink or vanity setup, you might need to drill a hole or run the hose behind or under the vanity. Keep in mind the hose may be exposed, but you can secure it with command strips or something similar.
Thank you
@@shanellgroce5377 you are very welcome! 🙏🏾
Thank you for taking the time making this vide.. It was very handy for me…
@@RafikAzouz It was my pleasure!
Jesus answered him, “What I am doing you do not understand now, but afterward you will understand.” - John 13:7
What was wrong with the old one?
@@dkhnova it was corroded and the aerator was splashing water onto the counter. I could have just changed the aerator, but because of the corrosion, water would seep under the faucet and leak into the cabinet. So it was due time to just change that thing out! I’d say we got good use out of it 😂
Holy that faucet is older than me 😮😮
@@Randomstuffandcrap2.0 Lol 😂
Great and easy fix. I think I can repair mine now. Can you fix the sunglasses holder also? It keeps opening.

broken after 18 months .Poor design on the plastic knob.
@@bob7615 I’m sorry to hear that. I’ve had mine for little over a year and I’ve packed up and moved across country and it’s still working fine. They do have a warranty, unfortunately it’s only for one year on this model.
Very helpful. Thanks.
You didnt peel off the tape to see if the laminate was cut clean.
@@l31007 😂 you are completely right!! Wow, what a slow move 🤦♂️

Good job installing that project source Danville!
Noooo so gorgeous 😢😢😢
I’m sorry 😢
“Get yo ass a sponge” is probably the best advertisement any company could receive
@@highschl_drop 🤣🤣
Back in the day, I had stripped a lot of wallpaper redoing my house. Some came off like this. Some didn’t. I don’t know if it was the age or the type of glue or process that was used, but one room was insanely difficult. The rest, easy.
@@rebeccawells9427I think it may have been the age of the wallpaper. Luckily this was pretty easy! 👍🏾
Sponge...always. Also, DIF wallpaper remover for the ones that don't peel from the backing are game changers! Steamers...no.
@@lisebetta Hmm good to know!
Less handy more high? The only other comment confirms you're def more high than handy... You missed a single step, made it harder on yourself and you'll have to go back and do it right anyway... make sure you take another wax gasket with ya so you don't have to cut another corner
@@gregscott4479 lol okay buddy
All u had to do is add a nut to them bolts to make sure it never loosens up.... few weeks toilet gone b wobbly
@@Savagelobo505 yeah I used what I had. I don’t have a car and I damn sure wasn’t spending money on an uber to get a nut lol
I be feeling the same way about asking for help.
@@woodroemitchell2848 I’ve got to get better at that. No successful people gained success by doing everything themselves, you feel me? Obviously with certain things it’s okay, but it’s a tad bit prideful, and pride is low vibrational on the consciousness scale.
@@woodroemitchell2848 My bad for getting so deep. It’s how I think.
Stop pretending you are bothered by this. You ain’t even wearing anything to protect your face. What if something flies into your mouth?
Dam bruh you sound salty 😢 why does it matter? its not your toilet😅
😂😂
Why is there a carpet in the bathroom?
@@minivan1680 😂😂 I have noo idea. The house is over 30 years old. They made some questionable decisions
Welcome to Atlanta, yeah the only means of transport is Marta and i would only use the train back and forth to downtown personally.
Word. We’re saving our money to get a decent vehicle
Had to cut a tiny pievey of the black washer because it would not fit snug from my toilet tank it was too small and it would not catch to screw on will be watching for leaks so far so good
I have a concealed or skirted seat
@@troylandwehr I haven’t come across any skirted toilets in order make a video, but all you need is a 3/8ths tee valve. See here: amzn.to/3X68r0p This is a different version of the t adapter provided by the company. It will connect directly to the supply valve coming out of the wall. So you don’t need to try and reach inside the toilet. I hope this helps! Keep me posted ! 👍🏾
Thanks so much. That was very helpful and thorough. Good Job!!
