"Finally an honest Solar company!! I went through several companies trying to get quotes for one of my properties, either they were ridiculously expensive or they didn't return my calls. A friend of mine referred me to Mega Sun and I have to say I am very pleased. Within a couple days from the initial phone call I already had an estimate and once i decided to go with them the installation was completed in one week. Its been a little over a month since they completed the install and everything is working smoothly.

I was amazed at just how great the customer service was. I just want to say thank you to the whole team who helped out, I really appreciate all your hard work. Now I know you guys are the ones to call for all future jobs."

"They responded to my call much faster than I had thought possible. They came in and were very organized and efficient. They were done with the cleanup much earlier than I anticipated, and I spent the night in my house."

"First, Flood Doctor is the most professional and accomplished company I have ever dealt with in my 68 years. Starting with the owner Nathan Suazo, Jack his lead assistant, and then down to all his other workers, there is an extremely obvious desire for their work to be the best and completely satisfy the customer. I have never seen such passion to do outstanding work!! For example, his painter painted a room and it looked fine to us. Mr. Suazo came by and made the painter return to get the room perfect. They are so trustworthy that we allowed them to put the house on a lock box and have free run of the house when we were away for several days. I can tell you that I am extremely paranoid about those things and basically trust virtually no one outside of my family. Their work was timely and Mr. Suazo went out of his way to help so many times that I lost count. Several examples are: coming to the house when the insurance adjuster came out to ensure that the adjuster gave us fair and complete compensation for all repairs; installing new door handles and lighting plates at no charge for labor when he noticed they were old or tarnished; bringing tile samples to us several times and then going to a show room to help us select new tile; and many other extra efforts too numerous to list. Bottom line: I give this company the highest recommendation possible"

"The young guy who did the work was prompt and professional, but not well trained. He power washed my patio BEFORE blowing the leaves and sticks off my roof, so all the debris landed on my just cleaned patio, and he didn't follow up to clean it off.
He forgot to do the garage door and was all packed up when he asked me to inspect, so I just let it ride.

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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.

These appliances do unscrew, but you need to disconnect everything properly when you replace your garbage disposal. Make sure you shut the power off to the area first and check that it’s off with a voltage detector. Disconnect the main drain line and P-trap, and then disconnect the dishwasher drain line if you have one connected. You can then unscrew your garbage disposal using a disposal wrench. Just make sure you disconnect the electrical lines before removing your appliance.
