"I've been using this company off and on for several years. They aren't the least expensive, but I'll tell you, they are the best! I have a vacation rental and a sump pump...not a good combination. Last night, the guest reported sewage backing into the shower and bathtub. I got in touch with Beverly at 8 a.m., and she had someone at the house by 9:30. Beverly has always taken my calls these past few years, and she feels like a family member who is there to help. She is always helpful and talks me off a ledge when I'm stressed about a plumbing issue. Thank you, Beverly! Ryan was my service tech, and, like all their staff, he was prompt, courteous, and professional. He informed me about each step and took pictures to show me what the problem was and the resolution. He handled a disgusting job that almost all people would not touch. They resolved my issue, and my current guest was very happy. Thanks for digging out all the grease that prior guests have dumped down the sink. Not a good combo with the sump pump and plumbing. Happy Holidays to all!"

We are an up and coming Home Remodeling company specializing in HVAC, Replacement Windows, Baths, and so much more. I welcome you to send an email or give us a call anytime. We are very flexible with scheduling and have installers and salesman with over 25 years of experiencing.

"We had accidentally broken a window while doing some remodeling in our kitchen and called RemodAz and a couple other window companies for competitive bids. We ended up signing a contract in October 2020 as we were told by the sales guy they would only take 6-8 weeks to get the job done, and they could do it faster than the others, because if we order now he can get the windows in as part of a large order for a local builder. At the end of December – with no communication other than me constantly inquiring where my windows are, they said they are having sourcing issues due to covid and could not give me an update, but could get me more information the next week after a call with the manufacturer, which I still didn’t get a call and was told it was my fault for not understanding that “next week” isn’t “next week” – it was the week after next week. Since we were adding a large sliding door and we had tile removed, we could not finish flooring until the door was in, so we had to keep deferring that install because we couldn’t get RemodAz to commit. Finally, towards the end of January they were out to install and man what a mess that was. Replacing 5 windows in the kitchen with two side windows and a plate glass window; replacing a window and a sliding glass door with a double slider; and then two windows in the front of the house. All with all aluminum frames, new windows and doors which is great because this matches the rest of the house. The door installation required a new header and some wire re-routing, and they wanted to just tie new wires with the old in the wall cavity which is not legal. I made them put a junction box in and I don’t think the way they crammed 8 wires into a double gang box was legal either but oh well. The new header goes in, and the opening is incorrectly sized for the door and it’s also sticking out a full inch on the left side into the room. 1 inch past the interior drywall and it’s clearly at an angle. They called a drywall guy out to patch the walls and he just laughed and left. They end up shaving the header down and just crumpled up some insulation and stuffed it in holes vs actually putting it into the wall cavity completely. I ended up redoing the insulation myself, oh and also had to supply the insulation and most of the wood myself along with quite a few tools. They ended up having an electrician come out to wire the new switches, and this was before the drywall went on, so the next set of drywall crew cuts new drywall around the switches (not the box) which made a 1/2 inch gap around the box. When I went to install the faceplate, it was impossible. I had to cut the drywall out from around the switch and redo it properly as well. They spent about 5 days out here to install 5 windows and 1 door. The fit and finish on the aluminum is really bad. There are paint issues and gaps in the frame, and the windows and slider are really hard to operate. I checked for plumb and the slider and a couple of windows are tweaked which, well, makes them really hard to open and close. They also broke one of the windows while installing it and told me they ordered a replacement at the same time. This is the replacement of the window that I broke - causing the whole window replacement thing to happen in the first place. Then nothing from them for about a month. They finally coordinated to have someone from the manufacturer come out who also confirmed that the windows were incorrectly installed and out of plumb – but he sprayed some silicone and called it good (which really didn’t help). He did nothing with the broken glass or the sliding door which has major paint defects and is poorly built and installed. Then nothing again until May. That’s when the fun really started. I get a call from Anna saying the manufacturer no longer sells aluminum frames (5 months AFTER the replacement window was “ordered”) and asked me if they could just replace the defective windows with vinyl, which I said if that were the case, they would need to replace all the windows with vinyl, so it wasn’t a mismatch in the same room at least. She didn’t say anything other than she was just the messenger, to which I told her I would like to talk to someone who can actually make decisions and speak for what the company is doing. We are dealing with fair amount of money in windows here, so I expect good quality and consistency, not windows and door that mismatched and hard to open. Then nothing again for another month. I finally got a text on the 10th letting me know Tammy was coming out with the glass guy, and it was confirmed between 10-1 on the 16th of June. June 16th comes and goes. No one comes out - and we are home all day, so this wasn’t a missed connection. This was no call no show from them. Well, fast forward to today (June 22nd). I get another text from Anna threatening to take me to court over not being able to complete the work. This is 9 MONTHS after I chose them, after they said they ordered the defective windows to replace the junk they installed, coming back 6 months afterwards saying they can’t get them anymore, saying they will come out with the guy from the glass company and then not show up. At this point I haven’t been able to finish inside around the broken windows and I would like to finish putting my house back together - I can’t keep waiting for the messenger to figure out the next delay tactic and am being forced to find another company to fix their mistakes. I reiterated to the threatening text that I need someone who can actually make decisions to contact me (now via text ONLY since everything will have to be in writing going forward). It’s been 5 hours and still nothing – maybe I can provide an update here in another month? If you chose this company – this is what you will get. Crappy service, horrible product and threats. And the window that started this all, even having been replaced, IS STILL BROKEN! Good luck!"

Drain Doctor Plumbing offers fast, quality, and honest plumbing work including emergency services. Call us to get the job done at your convenience and done right the first time. I am fully insured with a $1,000,000 general liability insurance plan to protect your home from unintended damages. Although I am currently not a licensed contractor I am legally allowed to perform any plumbing work under the handyman exemption for jobs up to a $1000. I can perform the same quality of work for much less than anyone else in town, so quit paying too much for your plumbing needs and call today!

"After calling Aaron, he was at our house within an hour. He put a camera down our cleanout and located a clog. He quoted a price that was a fraction quoted by the bigger contractors and started within a few days. After replacing the pipe, it was discovered that there was a crack in the city's pipe, Gila county was called and responded saying that we were responsible for that part of the sewer line. Aaron was able to dig under the road, locate the broken joint, cleaned out huge root balls, replace the pipe and wouldn't leave until after dark holes were filled in and area looked good. This had been a problem in this house for many years, long before we moved here. I am confident it was fixed and fixed right. Highly recommend."

Our team of professionals will meet all your needs from planning, renovations and building new residential and commercial buildings. We know how important it is to stay within the budget, provide quality work in a timely manner.

"I cannot say enough about Aaron Schwarder and Schwarder Construction. We bought a home that had not been updated since 1964. Plumbing included. Aarons crews redid both baths and the kitchen. Beautiful bright Carrera look tile, white counter tops, beadboard, wainscoting. New light and plumbing fixtures. Kitchen went from dark and cave like with fluorescent lights in plexiglass recessed ceiling thing, to raised ceiling, high end appliances, beadboard cabinets and an open to the dining room floor plan. Aaron was not satisfied with the cabinet surfaces and repainted them himself. All custom cabinets. Very important to me is the comfort level of having people working in my home. It can be awkward, to say the least. Aaron's guys are very respectful and always clean up at the end of the day, even if they are coming back in the morning. They were very careful not to let the animals escape. Recently I called the home depot pro desk with some questions about installing a new entry door and the first name they gave me was Schwarder Construction. I was raised to believe that a man's word is his worth. You can take Aaron at his word. 5 stars only because you cannot rate higher."

Garbage Disposal Repair questions, answered by experts

You can pour boiling water down the garbage disposal only when cleaning it. Use hot water to flush baking soda and vinegar down the drain for a quick clean-up. For running food down the disposal, always use cold water.

Garbage disposals can last between 10 and 12 years, so if your unit is pushing its lifespan, it may be a good idea to replace it. If your unit isn’t approaching the 10-year mark, try investigating other parts of the disposal to see if there's an affordable repair on the horizon. For example, rubber has a shorter lifespan than 10 years, connections and hoses loosen over time, and sink flanges can cause leaks that have nothing to do with disposals.

Many homeowners wonder if a garbage disposal is necessary with a dishwasher. After all, many dishwashers are powerful enough to handle bits of food with no issues.  

Still, your dishwasher should not act as a replacement for a disposal. Subjecting your dishwasher to continuous leftovers could lead to major clogs. If you don’t want a garbage disposal in your kitchen, simply scrape away any extra food into your trash can or compost pile.

The most common garbage disposal size in the U.S. is 1/2 horsepower. This size is ideal for households with three or fewer people or those that don't produce much food waste. Although 1/2 horsepower can't handle the typical food waste load for a household of four (which is about 250 pounds of food waste annually) as effectively as 3/4 horsepower, it remains the most common size of garbage disposal on the market.

These appliances certainly increase the number of things allowed down the drain, but they’re not foolproof. There are several items you shouldn’t put in your garbage disposal, according to manufacturers and technicians. Don’t put coffee grounds down the drain. The same goes for eggshells, potato peels, hard foods, onion skins, and any dry, expandable food. Most importantly, never put grease or oils down the drain.
