"This was the first time that I used service from Dependable Rooter & Plumbing which sent two very experienced technicians (Mr. Courchane and Gopar) to replace a broken kitchen sink garbage disposal; and they did an excellent job! In addition, they let me know clearly what the cost was before they started their work. There is no double that I will recommend Dependable Rooter & Plumbing to anyone."

"After lining up three plumbing contractors to install a kitchen faucet, a garbage disposal and fix a drainage leak, I selected Superior Plumbing to do the job because their technician seemed to have the necessary professionalism for a good job and they were also the least expensive of the three contractors I contacted. My service tech Armin was on time, cheerful, courteous and knowledgeable. It was obvious that he cared for my particular needs and he even announced that he loves his job and always looks forward to doing things right. He took almost exactly the time that was originally quoted and did an excellent job, cleaning up thoroughly before leaving. I wouldn't hesitate to use their services again. Thanks Armin."

"Alejandro and Oscar were very helpful and professional with their work. They installed my new Formica countertop and installed a new sink to replace my old broken sink. My water lines and shutoff were getting older and worn out so they recommended changing them out as well. Will be using them again for any work needed around the house."

"We highly recommend Carlos for any project you have in your home.  My wife and I are new to the area and wanted to find someone that would help us install some cabinets in our bathroom.  Ended up updating the entire bathroom and we are extremely happy.  For those of you who would like to get more detailed information, please read on.

So, where do I start, how can I provide you, the reader of this review with true and objective information without sounding like I have a vested interest.  Well, you will have to read and believe everything I am telling you.

My wife and I are new to Burlingame, just bought a beautiful 1906 crafstman home, of course with that comes all of the headaches of an old house that needs lots of repair.

We needed someone that could help us with some of the update projects that we've been planning now for a while and of course, as usual we tried to do it ourselves?.Not advisable, if you want to maintain your sanity or would like to be able to spend the little free time you have with your family enjoying your day off.

At any rate, we decided to join Angie's list and look for someone who could help us with our projects.  Boy was that ever the best move. We found Carlos under Handyman/Painting.  I have to say, he is not really just a handyman or a painter, he is really a perfectionist and a real professional.

We started by wanting to install some cabinets in our only bathroom in the house and ended up completely updating the bathroom and this is because we decided that we could trust Carlos and felt that he would be able to do a great and honest job.  Well, he exceeded our expectations by far.  I could go on and on about how great Carlos is and how happy we are with everything he did, however, it would take a while.

I think that if you're looking for an honest, professional who will do the best job and will leave you happy, then you should select Carlos.

We definitely have already a list of future projects that I know Carlos will be busy taking care of for us.  So, please get in line....."

"The job went very well. Nato, the owner, proved very responsive. He came for an estimate the day of the call and answered all my questions addressed my concerns. A quote was made on the spot. The work was performed on schedule and per the quote. There were no hidden costs or unexpected issues. He was flexible and accommodated some additions to the work and helped us find solutions to our drainage issues. The workers were professional and friendly. The crew seemed quite organized. Supplies arrived on time and the workers got the job done expediently. Nato again, was very responsive. He always called back right away and gave us summaries at the end of the day. There was one minor issue with the sprinkler system that showed up a day after the job was done (a wire had gotten loose) and Nato came out and fixed the problem within a couple hours of being called. Overall, I highly recommend Zarco. They are clean, professional, responsive, courteous and really understand what good customer service is. And while they are based in San Mateo, they had no problem coming to the city."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

If the cost of repairing a leaking garbage disposal is close to the cost of replacing the disposal, then fixing the unit might not make sense. When deciding if you should repair or replace your garbage disposal, consider the age of your garbage disposal, the cost of the repair, and whether your garbage disposal has had other problems recently to help you decide if the cost of repairing the leak is better than the cost of replacing the disposal.

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.

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.

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. 

Continuous feed garbage disposals are the favorite model for many homeowners for a reason. As opposed to batch feed models, add food scraps to the drain whenever the disposal is running. This variety is also typically less expensive, more convenient, and easier to clean.
