![How To Cut Out The Kitchen Sink With a Laminate Countertop [NO TEMPLATE!]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/XEjRebghiUU/mqdefault.jpg)
The killer of laminate counter tops is moisture which can eventually infiltrate under the stainless sink lip or at the faucet hole and reach the compress board backing under the laminate. I find it good practice to run a coating of silicone around the vertical edges of the cut sink hole and the faucet hole to seal the edges against water. I also like to run a bead of silicone around the underside lip of the sink, rather than relying solely on the rubber sink gasket. The gaskets do break down over time. Keep the water out and your laminate counters can outlast expensive stone counters and the laminates are more everyday friendly with minimal care.
Another excellent instructional video! After watching quite a number of your house improvement videos, I would say you are consistently one of the best, most thorough video teachers out there. Your explanations are always clear, and you frequently get into specific potential problem issues that many videos just gloss over. I have learned a lot from you. Thanks, Shannon!
This is such a professional DIY video, I'm extremely happy to see it. What a great job! Clear audio, clear video, NO BACKGROUND MUSIC (thank you!!), clear speech, clear instructions, and very good pointers all the way through.
A classic! Thank you very much!!
+Lass-in Angeles thanks for noticing, we do put a lot of time and effort into providing good videos. We've seen many videos with bad audio, bad lighting, poor instruction, etc. so thanks. Please subscribe and thumbs up.
Shannon,
I've watched a number of your videos over the years.
NOW...I'm actually installing a SS sink in a laminate counter top for my garage...."man cave-ish".
You, more than anybody else...offers actually great insights into whatever process you're describing.
No just the step by step stuff like others.
PRACTICAL suggestions in real world situations.
Keep 'em coming...WHO KNOWS what job I'll be doing next...
In most cases, I bet you've already done a video to show me HOW.
Great work.
thank you for all your videos. every time i have questions about projects around the house i can always find a house improvements video that show step by step instructions. thanks again

You’re so professional and calm.
Thankyou very much for this instructive video from a professional.

Great video for first time installers. Detailed hints and tricks to make the job go smoothly. Thanks.
You should use plumber's putty around the sink bowl. Also around faucet base plumbers putty. This will prevent the counter from swelling with water, and future bacterial growth.
Thank you for the informative videos, Shannon. You have definitely raised my confidence level. We are having to renovate our kitchen due to recent water damage. Keep up the good work. BTW, at certain angles, you resemble the actor Jude Law.

Great video on the sink install Shannon. Love the color on the walls and cabinets too.
Great piece of advice using down-sided jig saw blades on laminates. Those small details make all the difference. Look forward to your next video..

AWESOME series of videos!!! Many thanx Shannon
I like to refer to your videos sir. Not only are you a good installer, but also doubled with a very good teaching ability! Thank you.
Another great how to video. Thanks
An easy solution to your one man sink job is using a suction cup made for large windows to hold the piece of countertop while you make your final cut.
Yup, I did have one at one time but found it was just 1 more thing to carry around
HouseImprovements That makes sense and if you can accomplish it with your hand then might as well go that route for convenience.
Great video, I plan to put in a new sink within the next couple of days. Your videos always are a great help.
Good luck

great video, gives me the confidence to install new sinks in my bathroom
+slackskillz Giver a go! good luck
On this next step video, i like the stencil card board/tape trick as it makes it much easier not to screw up transferring the correct hole size into the counter-top for the sink. Though if a black mark on the tape wouldn't bleed thru i would enhance the pencil marks with a marker on the green tape before i cut because i tend to sometimes miss a light pencil mark.
Very helpful video. Thanks. You might want to give a little more detail on 'tightening' the clamps. Many sinks recommend a clip tightening sequence to avoid sink damage.
Perfect explanation
Your my go to guy . Remodeling a home I bought that was built in 1932 and remodeled slowly from 1968-75 . Now it's my turn in 2018. Love your videos. Thank you
Excellent vid. Thanks Shannon

Great video. Thanks.
THANKS FOR YOU VIDEO!!! HOUSELIMPROVEMENTS
Very good video, it was very instructional to me, thank you
Very useful for any beginner thanks good instructions
If your sink doesn't have the foam strip around the perimeter you can check out SinkSEAL also. Very few sinks come with a sealing gasket (in the US anyway) and SinkSEAL allows you to seal the perimeter without silicone/caulk/putty. It can be found on Amazon.
Good job again! Im from Vancouver, I lack the confidence to do some of the things you show until I see the videos. Im a finish carpenter but always like to take on new challenges.
great to hear we can help a pro
Do you know if those clamps will work with the ikea stainless steel sink? I got one and the chip that come with it are not good
An extra step I like to do is seal the particle board with polyurethane just in case it ever gets wet.
thanks, so helpful!
Nice job dude!
Great education. Thanks!
you are welcome
Awesome thanks for all the info
I was not aware this type of blade was available. When installing a stove top years back, I used a regular blade but taping the cut area prevented chipping and cracking. This blade would have made the job easier and less stressful. Thanks.
thank you very much.
Very informative
Shannon: Thanks for mentioning the down cut (reverse cut) blade.
Great video. Learned a lot. Subscribed and liked.
NICE WORK 😁😁😁😁😁
thank you
Great video
Great video Thank you .
You're welcome, Paul.
Thank you 😊
great video
nice cutting :)
Nice work
I want to see how they install the old version which they used a putty or silicone to stop leakage on the countertops, your show is 100% perfect but we need what is needed or appropriate to our country philippines.
Definitely you are best 👍💪🛠
Shannon,
One tip that is worth mentioning is when getting a drain assembly, try to avoid any type that creates a double strainer situation. I noticed on this drain, the top piece has a strainer, but the bottom also has a few cross pieces inside, creating a double strainer. The problem is that any debris that gets through the first strainer may get t get trapped on the second one. It should not be an issue with this one too much, as the second strainer is larger than the first. I have had to replace drain assemblies whiched clogged up all the time due to the second strainer trapping debris.
Good tip.
Thanks Mike. I would not have picked up on that.
Thank you for these videos. I'm going to try something new, thanks to you!
(Don't worry; it's on me if I fail or destroy something.)
nicely done

Not a bad job! Well done video

Awesome!!!!
Thanks.

Should you use plumbers putty when putting the drain in?
Nice video. Thank you. I found plumbers are usually using Silicon to cut water penetration. Is it necessary?
Have you got a video on Roof to wall securely connections.?
Your all videos are first class-good workmanship-precise and efficient.
shortly fantastic..
watch my shed build series, there I use some Hurricane brackets to secure the rafters to the walls, they are the same thing I use on garages and additions as well.
