    Oh yeah, no question washed rock. I'll get a sock to go over it and then filter cloth lining the ditch.

    I installed 23K worth of cabinets in a basement bar. The house had about 100k worth of cabs in it.

    Good job but you're dishwasher is being contaminated with sewer gas due to being tied in behind the trap,downstream. It needs to be upstream,before the trap. And the dishwasher hose needs to be raised as high as ya can get it to keep sewer back up from entering dishwasher.

    That looks REALLY good. Nice work.

    Good eye! I knew about the dishwasher line needing to be high but I hadn't ever thought about the sewer gas. I'm gonna check mine when i get home but I'm pretty sure I come in above the trap.

    I just now realized that's an IKEA kitchen! Had I not just put one in myself I never would've known. Looks fantastic, well done.

    I had to say something,I'm a plumber :)

    It's a little tight with the old tee being up high. Another weekend project would be to cut out all the old waste pipe and repipe in PVC with a cleanout at shelf level.
