"Called via phone, asked for an estimate and was quoted a great price. I called another company prior to calling 5 Star Plumbing and another company wanted to charge me 4 times the amount. Peter arrived early, installed the part, and tested the water heater. Provided excellent work and customer service. Highly recommend and would use his services again. Peter also came out within 10-15 minutes after speaking to him since we're located nearby. Thanks!"

"I have had two satisfactory experiences but the third time they sent a rookie, who clearly did not know what he was doing and he made a big mistake installing the disposal. But he did scold us on what he perceived to be our misuse of the garbage disposal, how we must have done A, B or C and that's why a relatively new disposal went bad, even though we'd done no such thing! We called to complained that the new disposal leaked badly under the sink and spit water out the air gap when using the dishwasher. To ES&D's credit, they did quickly send a different person out to fix the problem free of charge, but the repairman was clearly unhappy about it, grumbling about how we were getting a better disposal than we deserved because it was "all he had on the truck," and he too scolded us on misuse of the disposal. That is NOT how you follow up on a customer complaint. I could have excused the first guy if I'd received a little respect from the second guy. I am done with this company."

"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."

"I was so happy with The Plumbing Therapist!!! I needed to replace a garbage disposal and a faucet in a kitchen vegetable sink. I had already bought both replacements and had them ready for them when they got there. After looking at the disposal he found that he might be able to dislodge what was stuck inside instead of installing the new one to save me the cost of the replacement. After working on it he found that he could not and installed the new disposal. He then started on the faucet and found that it was still under warranty with the manufacturer. Who new after 14 years!!! He helped me contact them while he was there and got a brand new replacement sent to me for FREE!!! It is a little scary taking a chance on new service providers with the hope that they are honest, hardworking and professional and The Plumbing Therapist was all 3!!! I will definitely refer them to all of my friends and neighbors.

"I can't say enough good things about Ryan Murrary, the owner of Murray Plumbing. Ryan and his assistant Dayton. I needed his help installing a new disposal in my kitchen sink. He and Dayton were at my house the very next day installing and correcting the previous plumbers installations mistakes. Ryan and Dayton are very knowledgeable guys when it comes to anything dealing with Plumbing. They finished their work in short time. Cleaned up after themselves and were very polite. They went out of their way to help me and to be sure I was satisfied with work. Murray Plumbing is the one to call for all your plumbing needs. You won't be disappointed. I can assure of that."

"The installation of the copper piping involved removing all galvanized piping and installing copper from beneath the house. Some walls needed to be cut into in order to replace the piping. All sheet rock was repaired and re-tiled where needed. The finish product was like new. There was 2 or 3 men working at all times, always doing their best to least interrupt our daily lives.We never saw the men take a break or waste any time. Very impressive.. Everyone was very punctual, on time when they said they would be. Dave Sargent, owner and his supervisor, Jessie, were always available with helpful advice and supervising the project. If you are looking for outstanding quality of work and professionalism, this is the company you want to contact. Highly recommended -*/."

"Leo and Bernadette Velasquez are very personable as well as professional people.  Bernadette maintains excellent, timely communication/emails and answers all your questions.  Leo was on time and willing to spend the time to answer questions and offer recommendations.  He was also careful to ask our input on the variables to complete the work. 
We first met when we took advantage of the Four Aces deal thru Angieslist for $125 for a ceiling fan installation. 
From the Angieslist deal for $849 electric panel replacement, we also got an estimate for replacing/upgrading the entire panel including installing a ground/lightening rod thru the concrete.  Leo spent considerable time with us going over all the details.  We will certainly have them do that job when finances permit.
BTW, it was new to me was that he took pics with his cell phone of the panel we want to replace.  What a cool, smart idea.  
I also love that they additionally use email, and send estimates by email as well.
I see why Four Aces has rave reviews on Angieslist, so add ours to the list. 
PS: Four Aces refers to their four children having names all ending with ?ace.?  ;-)

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Garbage disposals can be considered bad for the environment due to their electricity usage, but good for the environment because they reduce the food waste sent to landfills. If everyone used a garbage disposal, it would tax the wastewater treatment facilities in that region, but if we had to choose one of the options, we’d say they are a net positive on the environment when used correctly. 

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.
