"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

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.

In some cases, it’s more cost-effective in the long run to replace a garbage disposal, but it depends on the specific issue you’re having and the age of your disposal. You should ask a garbage disposal repair tech for a quote to repair your appliance and then see if it would be more worthwhile to replace it. Additionally, garbage disposals last for around 15 years, so if you know your appliance is reaching that age, it’s likely better to pay for a new garbage disposal rather than sink money into repairs.

There are many maintenance and repair issues that lead to a malfunctioning garbage disposal. Regular clogs place wear and tear on the motors, leading to an eventual shutdown. Electrical issues at the breaker, wall outlet, or disposal itself can fry the unit. The most common cause is simply a worn-down motor. These motors can only handle so much use before powering down for good. 

If your garbage disposal powers up and you can hear it hum, but the arms inside aren’t moving, the problem might be a stubborn clog, a build-up of grease, or a jam of the impeller plate. To troubleshoot these, ensure your unit is off and disconnected from its power source before checking inside the drain or attempting to manually rotate the impeller arms or plate from the underside of the unit. A hex wrench can help.

No, you do not need a garbage disposal to have a dishwasher. A dishwasher will work without one, and while it's rare to see a home with a dishwasher that doesn't have a disposal, it is possible. The two appliances pair well and are often installed together because a disposal simplifies meal cleanup.

However, your dishwasher should not be used as a replacement for a garbage disposal. Subjecting it to continuous food leftovers can lead to major clogs. If you choose not to install a garbage disposal, you should thoroughly rinse your plates or scrape excess food into the trash or a compost pile before loading them into the dishwasher to prevent plumbing issues.
