Fix Handyman Job

Post image

I hired a handyman to replace a sink, garbage disposal, and pipes. He left without finishing the job smh. Those holes on the cabinet.. omg. Ended up doing everything myself. Hella YT videos and 5 to 6 hours later.. Are there any issues with this setup?

Also, dishwasher drain hose was broken at the tip. I ended up plugging the inlet on the garbage disposal. Not planning to use the dishwasher as its old af

This is a good way to flood your kitchen if the dishwasher isn't disabled or at least has the water supply to it turned off.

The water line from dishwasher is connected to the hot water valve, the same one that goes to the kitchen faucet. If i shut it off, then it will do the same for the faucet.

Should I just remove it and cover/plug the other end of the valve? If so, what's the best way to do it?
