"I am the luckiest customer in the world to have hired the best plumber in the world to fix a sudden water torrent leak from my garbage disposal. That's how I felt after the outstanding job that he did. Jose Hernandez of Smart Choice Plumbing & Rooter, Inc., in my estimation, has perfected the art of plumbing. He is super knowledgeable, competent, highly organized, and ultra kind. His best is the very best and if you like, he'll explain the process as he goes along. He knows his stuff very well! He did a beautiful job replacing my suddenly broken garbage disposal and also my kitchen faucet which I couldn't turn right or left for the last 5 years. He was so careful with each step he took, including using his strong water extractor which he brought with him just in case to remove as much water as possible under the sink's flooded area. This made for a much better working space under the sink, as well as taking loads of dirty leftover water filled with the floating white based peeling paint from the floor of the cupboard coming loose from the wetness from the sudden leak. Just watching the care he put into each step was amazing. Each step built upon the next, and before I knew it, he had that under-sink cupboard rid of all the loose peeling paint and dirty water and looking so much safer and well-managed again, with the new kitchen faucet and garbage disposal installed perfectly, as well. I am so impressed with the great INTEGRITY this man has in every big or little step in the process the job called for. You rarely see that honorable type of commitment anymore, and it is such a gift to be the recipient of a truly honorable professional who literally takes his job to heart. Jose came in his wonderful truck that always contains several items of everything that he might need to use for many different projects needing to be fixed, replaced, or restored, so he rarely has to stop what he's doing in order to go get one or two special parts. This makes the job take less time in the long run because he has what he needs. And when he says he'll come back tomorrow, he comes back tomorrow. Jose Hernandez is a man who keeps his word and who always finishes the job successfully, no matter how complicated some jobs may be. I have told my neighbors and friends that when they have need for a plumber, go no further than calling Jose Hernandez. He will make you feel so safe as you watch the meticulous way he works, while always keeping calm throughout each job, and informing you of what he is doing. He is conscientious to a "T" and he leaves everything neater than when he came! In my experience and estimation, Jose Hernandez is OUTSTANDING in his profession and I would recommend him every time, even to the Queen of England!! His standards and integrity are amazing and the BEST. He is a man of his word, and he takes ownership of the responsibility of giving his ALL to every commitment he makes. I feel so lucky to be one of his customers. I think you will be, as well. * Jose Hernandez's Company: SMART CHOICE Plumbing & Rooter."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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.

If you cook a lot or have a larger household, a garbage disposal can be worth it, since it streamlines your kitchen duties and helps to keep food waste out of landfills. It helps to know the cost of garbage disposal installation before you make your decision. The average price is about $400, but you can expect to pay more for higher-end models or if you hire a pro to do the job for you.
