"At 5am on January 2nd, I had an emergency leak under my kitchen sink. I left a message at Tony's Plumbing and they promptly called me at 730 and said that a plumber will be at my home between 8-9am. Paul arrived at 8:30am, replaced the waste disposer, cleaned up, and was out of there by 9:20am. Paul was prompt, super courteous, clean and efficient. The charge was very reasonable. I am absolutely pleased with Paul and the other plumbers that work at Tony's. I would recommend them to anyone."

Customers say: True professional

"It went very well and we are very pleased with the final outcome. It is beautiful. Lou and his StoneAge team are highly professional and were responsive to all our requests. They did all of the demolition, tileing, electrical and plastering. He also did all the subcontracting for the cabinets, floors, and painting. The folks he works with are all very professional and attentive to detail. It was great to have one person responsible for the entire project. We did run in to unexpected plumbing and sewer issues which stretched out the timeline. But Lou and crew dealt with it in a professional and timely manner and brought in a great plumbing crew. It turned into a bigger project than we originally planned. But we are very pleased with the final outcome and our guests are very complimentary about the excellent work on our home."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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.

Whether it's worth repairing your garbage disposal depends on its age and the specific problem. Generally, if the unit is eight years old or younger, repair is a good option. For minor issues like a bad seal or a simple jam, a repair can be inexpensive, sometimes under $10. However, if the motor is broken (a repair that can cost $150 or more) or the unit is getting old, it's often more cost-effective to replace the entire disposal.

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.

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.

When a dishwasher discharges its wastewater, it uses a pump to quickly move a lot of water. If anything in the drain line or the garbage disposal impedes the high volume of water, it will back up into the sink through the drain or the garbage disposal. Following regular dishwasher maintenance tips like clearing clogs, keeping them cleared, and occasionally running the disposal will eliminate the problem.
