"Everything went fine. RJ and Angel were promptly on the job. They explained what they were going to do. During the cleaning process they showed me the progress via their sewer line camera. I am very pleased with the work and appreciated their professionalism."

"If you are looking for a great plumbing company, focused on performing quality and reliable work at reasonable cost--look no further! Alliance United Plumbing has our highest recommendation and Javier, Alliance Unitedâ s owner, is the only plumbing pro and expert we now call when we have any plumbing problems or require other plumbing services/maintenance. This year, Alliance United completed 3 plumbing projects for us. In Jan-Feb 2023, Alliance United replaced a combined length of 46-ft (approx.) of deteriorating 3-in cast iron sewer line on our 4-unit property. About 30-ft ran under a ground floor concrete slab, under the front steps, and onto the city sidewalk to the city sewer line. A lot of jack hammering and hand digging with shovels was required to expose and replace this deteriorating sewer line. Following city inspection, which passed without a hitch, every bit of excavated dirt/soil was put back in place, compacted, and new concrete was poured to replace all that was jack hammered. In the process, another 3-in sewer line was discovered to be buried under our garage concrete slab that connected to the street. Thankfully, Javier determined (via cable camera) this 18-ft cast iron pipe could be serviced (hydro jetting) and the interior relined using a chemical resin/fiberglass process. That section of sewer pipe now has a strong and smooth resin lumen, fortified with fiberglass, and should last for decades! In early May 2023, a second story toilet and bath tub backed up with raw sewage each time a third floor toilet was used and flushed. Alliance United cut away the ceiling sheet rock on the ground floor and exposed a horizontal 3-in cast iron branch line that was obstructed by scale build up, waste, and rust. Leakage was also imminent due to cracks in the pipe walls. All the connections to this branch line were replaced using ABS, including the 23-ft (approx.) branch line itself. Now the second and third floor toilets flush and the bath tubs drain without any backflow, without obstruction, and without any leaks! In June 2023, we experienced another leak from the ground floor ceiling. When the sheet rock was opened, a 2-in cast iron horizontal branch line that drained the third floor kitchen sink was found to be rusting and leaking from several cracks in the cast iron. This 5-1/2 ft cast iron branch line was replaced with ABS, along with several other cast iron fittings. Like the other two earlier plumbing problems, the Alliance United team resolved this issue like the pros they are! My husband and I are dubbing 2023, the â Year of the Leaksâ ! Throughout each of our plumbing nightmares, there was one plumbing company, Alliance United Plumbing,that helped us to resolve all these problems. Javier and his team are truly honorable individuals who care most about doing their best work, offering the best service, quality, and warranty to all their customers at reasonable cost. They are clearly knowledgeable and experienced with a wide range of plumbing systems, both residential and commercial, always putting customer service first! Given our experiences with Javier and his team (including Javier Jr.!) and the service and quality of work they have provided each time, Alliance United Plumbing has earned our customer loyalty. Alliance United Plumbing will always be our plumbing company of choice and once again, we cannot recommend Alliance United more highly! Thank you, Javier, for helping us through our plumbing nightmares over the past 6-months. You and your team are absolutely the best!"

"Removed p-trap, and ran a snake into the main bathroom's sink drain, but was unable to clear clog due to the poor condition of the old plumbing. However, effort is appreciated and commended because the stench coming from the drain was unbearable. Recommended replacement of santi within wall, and provided estimate. Same procedure was followed to clear clog in sink drain of second bathroom. Although I was disappointed that it was against the service provider's policy to snake the drains from the vent pipes via the roof, one of the drains was cleared, and a good effort was made to clear the other."

"I had gas line installed, from garage to kitchen. Every aspect of the job was a positive experience. Initial contact was made through Angi's List. MVP was the first to respond. Communication throughout was extremely proactive and informative. From the estimate appointment, to the install date, Cristian and Daniel kept me informed every step of the way. I can't say enough about their professionalism and kindness. Work began on-time and was done to my total satisfaction. These people are the best!"

"I have much appreciation for HomeX. They're prompt, courteous, and professional, and their prices are reasonable. I called to have a new garbage disposal installed. Enrique, on the phone, was friendly and quick, and plumber Joey was professional and knowledgeable and informed me of some additional concerns under my sink that I need to keep an eye one. A+ to the professionalism and quality of the HomeX team!"

"Absolutely the best decision to go with these guys. We had several quotes. Sewer Bros came out, looked at everything, provided an accurate and well written quote, which we immediately signed. Came back out a few days later with a whole crew and spent the whole day and then some, hours past 4pm. It was done. The work site was clean - cleaner even than before they got here - and they double checked everything again before leaving. Best experience."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

Your garbage disposal will only affect the health of your septic tank if you’re using it too frequently, or filling it with organic waste that doesn’t fully break down. If the tank fills up with too many solids, the bacteria won’t have enough time to consume it before more is added, which can lead to an overflow in the drain field. Your tank will need to be pumped more frequently with excessive or improper garbage disposal use.

As with many appliances, proper maintenance is key to maximizing your garbage disposal’s life span. If everyone in your household is on board with proper care and maintenance, like running water while operating the disposal, you should get plenty of years out of your unit. Avoid putting the wrong food items down the disposal, including pasta, rice, bread, and more.

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.

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.

On average, a garbage disposal can last anywhere from 7 to 12 years, with many models functioning well for about 10 years. With heavy usage, a motor may last a minimum of five years, while grinding plates will wear down over time. It's generally a good idea to consider a replacement if your unit is approaching the 10-year mark. Other signs that it's time for a new disposal include frequent leaks, persistent clogs, lingering odors, lack of power, or unusual noises. If your unit is not that old, it's worth investigating if a less expensive part, like a rubber seal or a loose hose, is causing the issue.
