How To Replace A Water Shut Off Valve Under A Sink

What happens here

The video starts by showing a leaking angle stop, specifically from the supply line nut, and notes that the valve itself doesn't shut off. The first crucial step is to shut off the main water supply to the house before proceeding with any repair. A bucket is placed underneath to catch any drips.

Goal: Identify the source of the plumbing leak, which is an angle stop supply line nut and a non-functioning valve. Prepare a bucket to catch any residual water during the repair.

Alright folks, so I came down to my neighbor's house to change out a leaking angle stop. It is leaking from the supply line right here, the supply line nut, but it also doesn't shut off. It's still leaking. First thing we need to do is shut the water off. For that, we got to go outside. So I don't know if you guys remember, but Gil actually dug this whole yard up. And we're going to just go up back to the meter, right, he's tidy, lefty, loosey, to holes
