Just got new kitchen cabinets wanted to protect them as much as I can. You taught me about the leak detectors I didn’t even know that was a thing. Thank you
Congrats on the remodel (and getting your house back). Keeping the cabinets like they were on day 1 is not everyone's first thought so kudos to you! Thanks for the feedback---happy to hear it helped!
Thank you for the genuine compliment. Also, thanks for your suggestion. I was leaning towards trying out govee but I'll check out b-hyve as well. Which mat did you go with?
@@NoMoreLeaks ordered a weathertech; have had one in the past. the govee is probably cheaper than the b-hyve but so far the b-hyve has been stable connectivity wise. i have a govee temp monitor at my mother's apt but connectivity is erratic, FWIW
My pipes are coming from the bottom and I am buying a smaller Weathertech mat. If I put holes in the mat and cut the mat to include the pipes, what glue should I use to seal the cut and make it waterproof the cut and also the hole around the pipe. Thanks.
I agree to some extent. I considered a pan of some sort--let's be real, we are all looking to save where we can and under the sink where no one looks is almost like throwing money out the window. But a pan would have to be the size of a cookie sheet for the spacing of the plumbing under my sinks. Asking metal to protect a cabinet seemed like it would be worse if water got around it undetected. At least silicone won't leave a rust mark. I figure $35 a sink now could make for a bigger payday when it comes time to sell the house--when I'm painting the walls I won't have to worry about replacing an ugly base of a cabinet.

Good to know! I really appreciate the intel. I hope you never have to truly use that weathertech mat. 😉

Great question! Any brand of 100% silicone will do a good job at sealing that joint. GE, Dap, etc.
what about the flexible silicone mats. How do I seal the cut in the mat to insert the pipes.

@@NoMoreLeaks Thanks. GE and Dap are the names of the silicone or brand nae?
Those are brands you'll find at Home Depot. Any 100% silicone will work.
Nice! Appreciate the detailed video.
Thank you for the feedback. I appreciate the kind words. ❤️
Very nice & well done video
Thank you very much. I appreciate the support and am glad you found it helpful.
these mats protect the cabinet floor, nothing else. So it doesn't matter what you use as long it doesn't let water get to the floor.
