"I wish to thank Andy for the great and prompt work. This is the second time I’ve called him and he came when he said he would. He is dependable, respectful, affordable, and I stand by his work and integrity 100%. I almost had given up on there being anyone out there who I could trust until I met Andy. Thank you for reassuring me there are still good people out there."

"Pat Was absolutely fabulous! I was having problems with my sink draining. He came on time and was extremely polite and courteous. After checking my sink he quickly found the problem and explained to me the issue and how he planned to fix it. Not long after that he had my sink completely fixed! He kept a clean work area and did not dilly dally. When the work was done he presented me the bill and the price and it was very reasonable. Once the bill was paid we had a small and pleasant conversation and he left. I will definitely be using him again and will be referring him to all of my friends and family. Great guy that does great work."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

It’s one thing that helps, alongside vinegar and baking soda. Ice acts as an exfoliant, helping to lift off any bits of food stuck on the disposal blades.

Your garbage disposal will only affect the health of your septic tank if you’re using it too frequently, or filling it with organic waste that doesn’t fully break down. If the tank fills up with too many solids, the bacteria won’t have enough time to consume it before more is added, which can lead to an overflow in the drain field. Your tank will need to be pumped more frequently with excessive or improper garbage disposal use.

Soil is just one of the items you shouldn't put down a garbage disposal. Garbage disposals are only meant for soft, non-fibrous foods. Large amounts of topsoil, dirt, or rocks will damage the blades of your garbage disposal or clog the pipes. If a small amount of dirt goes down the drain as you repot a plant, you shouldn't have to worry, but never dump a whole pot of soil in the sink for fast disposal.

Once you have your garbage disposal disconnected, you can remove the mounting bracket by unscrewing the bolts that are holding the bracket. You can back them out just enough to pop off the snap ring, which prevents the bottom portion of the bracket from disconnecting from the top when you unscrew the bolts. Use a regular screwdriver to pop off the snap ring, and the rest of the components should fall off by themselves.

While the drain connection for a garbage disposal is nearly universal and fits standard sink drain holes of 3 1/2 to 4 inches, the size of the disposal unit itself is not. You must have enough space in the cabinet underneath your sink to accommodate the disposal's housing. A larger model may not fit in a compact cabinet or if the existing plumbing is arranged in an unusual way. Before buying a new garbage disposal, measure the available space under your sink. If you are replacing an old unit, it's often easiest to choose a new model of a similar size.
