"It was amazing Chris and Andy did an amazing job. They used a newer method called trenchless were they dug a 4 by 4 hole by the house and one by the street and used a hydraulic pull machine fusing SDR17 pipe approx 60ft from the house to the street using 2 blue band strong back bands rated for 80 pounds keeping root intrusion out. They gave me a 50 year warranty on all work performed parts,labor and material. I'd definitely use them again very honest,professional and efficient"

"Phenomenally. Robert & his team installed new flooring, painted several bedrooms, installed ceramic tiling in my bathroom, a walk in shower, and bathtub. Also installed hardwood floor in kitchen & bedrooms. I’m beyond happy with the outcome of the work. If you’re needing work done around your home, definitely give him a call. Extremely polite, respectful & great communication as well."

"When you call them, a real person answers the phone! Patrick's wife, Carrie, answers the phone and is very pleasant and schedules a time for Patrick to come out. I've never had to wait more than a few hours! Sometimes Carrie comes out as well. They are both very friendly and pleasant as well as professional.
Patrick seems to know all about different appliances, has the tools and knows where to get whatever else might be needed. He is fast and efficient. He also cleans up any mess that he may have made doing the repairs which I certainly appreciate too!
Thanks to the 3:1 service my disposal is now working. I have another burner on my stove to use.  I have a nice ice maker instead having to use those ancient ice cube trays.
My cats even liked them and they took time to notice them and pet them too!

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

On average, it takes one to four hours for a professional to install a garbage disposal. This includes removing the old unit, taking necessary measurements for positioning, removing and fitting new pipes, and installing the brand-new disposal system. If there are unforeseen issues, such as accessibility concerns, the process takes longer.

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.

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.

Most garbage disposals have a reset button that can be triggered with a tool as simple and accessible as your index finger. That said, if you need to perform a more in-depth troubleshooting step, like manually moving the arms inside the unit or rotating the impeller plate, a hex wrench is the most common tool you’ll need. Most garbage disposals come with a hex wrench.

While unplugging your garbage disposal and plugging it back in may help, most units have an actual reset button, a bright red switch found on the underside of your unit. If your garbage disposal needs resetting, you may notice this button sticking out about a quarter of an inch from the surface of the unit, with which it’s usually flush. Simply depress this reset button to reset the unit, and then test to ensure it’s working about 10 minutes later.
