It shows the work ethic that you put into this kitchen, you took your time and paid attention to the details and work through situations with a great attitude. Thanks for this.
I have met guys like you. You know so much and it seems like you are doing the best job that can be done and in this instance you were looking out for the customer. Not knowing the difference between what is correct and what will just get by is me. I rely on talking and sometimes working with the builder/handyman to do the best job available. I have given my handyman about 5 other jobs in my neighborhood via referrals based on the quality of work he does.
We had a Corian countertop put in our kitchen about 20 years ago. It has a white accent stripe in the center of a bullnose front. That's the only way you can see the seam on ours. They used a multicolored-speckled filler in the seams. You have to look real close at that white band on the front to see where the seam is. I was amazed then.
I have always used WD40 but didn’t know they had other “flavors” till one of your other videos. Well two days ago I had to change the handle, lock and wheels on my sliding door and when I got the parts I also picked up a can of the WD40 professional grade water resistant silicone spray. Well now the door slides so easy I have had to put rubber stops on the frame so I don’t break the glass. Thanks for letting me know about the other WD40 products.
Super Great Job HandyMan. Would expect nothing less than absolute perfection from you, and your tradespeople. This is what your customers deserve and expect. I loved the music! Keep on giving us amazing content. You are Massively Appreciated! Fan from Florida.
Hey Handyman.... I really enjoy your channel. Learning quite a bit of stuff. Your pretty funny to. I had to laugh at your selection of music you chose to use for the installation of counter tops! Keep up the good work.
One more thing, I just purchased today, the Dewalt Atomic compact 20v set that has the drill w/ 1/2" chuck, the 1/4" impact driver, the Sawzall and the orbital vibrating saw, got to use the impact driver, man that extra inch made all the difference, (insert joke here) I had sent you a message on Instagram and ask if you used those, or knew anything about them, but I know, your busy etc. LOL anyway, I am going to see how the hold up, definitely like them over the 14 year old Craftsman, as far as the weight goes, hopefully they make the grade.
A tradesperson who takes pride in their work and wont settle for half-assed work is invaluable. I hate these people who promise to do work where they either 1) dont really understand how to do well, or 2) dont give a shit to try to do it well. Someone who cares about their work and is knowledgeable enough to do it well is worth every penny you pay them.
@@TheHandyman1 Thank you for the quick reply. Nice clamps and video. When I installed some cabinets for my son in his garage I just had bessey clamps, shims, and 28" level clamped to the "previous" cabinet bottom (used to align cabinet bottoms and as my third hand to rest the new cabinet). Wish I had a third hand/red pole and those red clamps as it would have made everything a whole bunch easier.
Is there a finale for this project? We're still missing the cabinets around the fridge and the window that will become the door, and skinning the cabinets. Or do I have to wait for your show on TLC or HGTV haha!
Despite the headaches, it's clearly a beautiful kitchen. Great job Handyman. (Amazing what lighting a 🔥 under someone's butt can do. The countertops look good - like big slabs of fresh white queso. 😁🌶️)
Yo handyman! You’ve got awesome content. Thanks for all you do. Gotta say tho- didn’t look like you actually got any grease in your hinges. You couldn’t get even one squeeze into them! Always need to get a little grease to weep out the hinge before you’re done.
All labor is made of felons and criminals around here. There are no other options. That's why I created my business and why I have so much work at an extremely high price.
*WOW* !!!! *LOVE that Mexican music* !!!!! *LOL* !!!!!! *This FAB video was WELL worth the wait* !!!! *The cabinets and drawers look perfect* !!!!! *It's a SHAME the countertop is just okay* !!!! *MAYBE the next kitchen you will NOT have Larry, Moe, Curly and Shem as helpers...* !!!!????? *NO, they did NOT install the counters correctly* !!!! #MassiveKitchenReno #TheHandyman
Handyman, Great appropriate background music while they installed the counter ! I bet it feels good getting that counter installed correctly ! Great video as usual.
Hey Handyman! I just want to say, Thank You for turning us on to the Golbrico brand soft close drawer slides, these things are Great! and at anywhere from a third to more than half the price of other brands. Have a Great Weekend!
because if companies had to vet every single person who was capable of doing the work, to make sure they did everything 100%. they would have to hire an extra person for every worker just to babysit the babysitters. people are people and even if someone can do the job right, doesn't mean they will. workers still have to be trusted to a certain degree, but it shows that they knew their guys work wasn't good before they sent them out because they didn't even question whether or not the work was actually questionable.
Gotta admit, at 4:52, I said out loud, "Oh, shit. Not again." Then, you had me LOL with the music playing in the background. Did they compensate you for the extra time, pain, and suffering you had to endure?
LoL when the mariachi crew showed up I immediate thought OH NO NOT AGAIN! I thought you were messing with us by showing us old footage. But alas, I was wrong, I guess it would take 4 or so guys to lift up and maneuver a big heavy counter top without trashing everything around it. Did you really have an appointment or did the crew need a siesta? Kidding - but seriously you should have been eating some Chipotle while watching them work...they would have doubled down to get done in time so they could bolt and get some lunch. Wishing I had a Chipotle burrito about right now...
@the handyman - the beard is too much, take it down another comb, what is it, a 4 or 5, take it down 1 to a 4, or 3 or just grow it out at the front and down, not all around, sorry for being Negative about your Beard Grooming, but it looks funny on Screen, so if it looks funny on Screen, it looks funny with a Customer, and the Customer pays your Bills.
It shows the work ethic that you put into this kitchen, you took your time and paid attention to the details and work through situations with a great attitude. Thanks for this.
I actually spit my beer out laughing so hard when the counter install music started. PERFECT!
Yeah. Subtle, but a nice touch...
Christmas? Have I been self isolating that long?
The Mexican music was a great touch I was laughing the whole time.
I got the slight hit too lol
I lost it when it came on lol
Same thought.
Hilarious!!
That's rac sist

I did not know that WD-40 made grease, so thanks for that! Also, I like that MASSIVE sink. Looks good Handyman!
They make everything. They have a few different grease for diffe3ren temp ratings and things like that.
Greasing things is so satisfying!
Love the way you have correct tools for every step
good on the counter top people for sorting it

Love the slow zooms you put in, but I always think there's going to be a "jump-scare" right at the end. "BOOM!!"
the shop is looking better and better !! keep it up !!

Finally! Some closure on the countertop saga!👍
hey handman, how long did that project take? The whole kitchen.

I hate these people who promise to do work where they either 1) dont really understand how to do well, or 2) dont give a shit to try to do it well.

u pay your people in pennies? you cheap bastard
Yay! Finally some closure LOL!
I wanted to buy the clamps but there's no link. :(
Great job keeping them honest
Hey Handyman, what about those red clamps for aligning the cabinets?
Here are the clamps amzn.to/2SbQ2h3 Here is a video where I show how to use them. th-cam.com/video/_0tieOe--V0/w-d-xo.html

still can't see that seam-didn't know you could hide it that well
On white quartz you can hide them very well. That's why the first seam was unacceptable.
Finally! Lol, good job handy dandy 🤘🇺🇸😊
Air gap not required in your area for the dishwasher
No. I honestly have never even seen one. Just a loop before it plugs into the garbage disposal.
An air gap is usually only needed when a proper vent on the waste line isn't available.
I know you mentioned in an earlier video that you would talk about the price to build those cabinets. Is that video on the business man channel?
Dude, that mariachi music😂😂😂
Awesome work and thanks for the content stay safe
Might want to pull and replace zerks. I don’t think you got grease in the hinges.
I’m very curious. Is it more cost effective to build your own cabinets vs buying them. Or do you build them better? Thanks.
Usually cheaper to buy but you can buy better materials or make them fit your specific area.
I heard about a perfect phone call. Is it the same kind of perfect?
"F-ing broke it, F!" lol half speed for the win
😉
Impressive work.
Perfect music selection 😂😂😂
Not from my house I can't see it
The music choice was great
The sound of your voice when you don’t grease your pins in 10 years lol. Rock on handyman
So what is the trick behind concealing the seams on the Granite? Seams were non-existent based on what you showed
The right color epoxy.
Are those clamps made for cabinet face frames?! 😃
yes
That's sweet
It's taking forever to renovate this kitchen. LOL
Nice touch on the Mexican music
Great video handyman ,hope you and your family are all safe and well, great job
The mexican music 🎵 👍Mexican people are the best👍
Yo handyman! You’ve got awesome content. Thanks for all you do. Gotta say tho- didn’t look like you actually got any grease in your hinges. You couldn’t get even one squeeze into them! Always need to get a little grease to weep out the hinge before you’re done.
How much did the countertops cost?
Wait, its not done! Where's the rest?
You man to tell me your contractors cant work in a customers house without you babysitting?....Where do you get these guys from, the local prison?
All labor is made of felons and criminals around here. There are no other options. That's why I created my business and why I have so much work at an extremely high price.
Looking great!

Thanks for all your nice supportive comments.
So what background music would you have put if they were African American?
The theme song to the TV show Cops...
Or white? Ted Nugent?
Lol love the Spanish music!
Awww man Christmas is coming. Little did we know.......😳
This is the video I’ve been waiting for!
Handyman, Great appropriate background music while they installed the counter ! I bet it feels good getting that counter installed correctly ! Great video as usual.

Looks great.
What are you doing about the ugly pocket holes ?
Every thing got skinned.
@@TheHandyman1 For the 20th time. Geesh.. People are still asking about the pocket holes!?! Haven't they been following along? LOL!
I guess not.
Compare this seam to the other one from the other installer, wow
Was it a perfect call too? :) Love those cabinets... so sexy. Putting cans and tools on top of the counter. ¡Ay, caramba!
Looks great - loved the music!
Its Corona time!
The music choice during the countertop installation was on point
Looks great man!
The Latin music = Perfection!! 😂😂😂
I hate whistling while you work...
Was that the same crew from the first installation? If so, why the hell didn't they do the job right the first time?
No
because if companies had to vet every single person who was capable of doing the work, to make sure they did everything 100%. they would have to hire an extra person for every worker just to babysit the babysitters. people are people and even if someone can do the job right, doesn't mean they will.

Oh you are a ball buster and I love the music LOL
How long has this job taken so far?
I finished it last year. It took about a month and a half.
Was that a mfr at 2:33? lol
You must have slowed it down. I snapped the head of that screw off.
Is this really the last time we will see this kitchen I hope not
I have some tricks up my sleeve for this November.
Great video 😀😀😀😀😀
Love the Mexican Music LOL
Is that acetone?! Omfg. Report to Cambria please!
$1,400 on drawer slides IS a lot.
Probably alot of high quality soft closing slides
😳
OMG its massive
Is that music getting louder the longer they take or is it me? lol
It is lol
OMG that mariachi music !!!! LOST IT @ WORK lol!!!!!
Love it!
That circular saw blade t-shirt needs to be carbide-tipped.
are you getting more viewers with this insane lockdown.
Gotta admit, at 4:52, I said out loud, "Oh, shit. Not again." Then, you had me LOL with the music playing in the background. Did they compensate you for the extra time, pain, and suffering you had to endure?
Adding in that Mexican music was the perfect touch 😂👌
Like it never even happened!
Great job....On the music what if they are NOT Mexican they might from El Salvador or Guatemala 🤷🏽♂️ just saying
They are Mexican.
Holy guacamole that music at Quatro Cinco Dos (452) is making me hungry lol.
Quite a few pocket holes showing ???
No pocket holes are showing on the finished cabinets.
@@TheHandyman1 thought u were showing finished cabs . & kitchen..
Nope. Far from finished in this video
I don’t normally want music in videos, especially yours, but in this case I NEEDED the music. Thank you
First sub I’ve seen you use
LMAO that music during the counter top install omg
LoL when the mariachi crew showed up I immediate thought OH NO NOT AGAIN! I thought you were messing with us by showing us old footage. But alas, I was wrong, I guess it would take 4 or so guys to lift up and maneuver a big heavy counter top without trashing everything around it. Did you really have an appointment or did the crew need a siesta? Kidding - but seriously you should have been eating some Chipotle while watching them work...they would have doubled down to get done in time so they could bolt and get some lunch.

Arriba! Christmas ... ?
$1400 in drawer slides?!?
Lots of drawers
@the handyman - the beard is too much, take it down another comb, what is it, a 4 or 5, take it down 1 to a 4, or 3 or just grow it out at the front and down, not all around, sorry for being Negative about your Beard Grooming, but it looks funny on Screen, so if it looks funny on Screen, it looks funny with a Customer, and the Customer pays your Bills.
Music choice was terrible. Country music next time please handyman! I was blasting the video and had to mute it.
I like how he plays Hispanic music when those Hispanic dudes show up
#108 thumbs up
Thanks Steve.
The music had me dying! 😂
The music 😆
I spit my drink out when you started the mexican music. 😂
Im glad you enjoyed the video.
