"I called them at around noon. They returned my call in few minutes and informed me they will come after they finished the 2 jobs the had that afternoon. They came around 45 minutes late because of the traffic around 6:00 pm. I am actually glad they came. They were very polite an professional and explained to me that previous repaired was not done correctly and the wrong kind of pipe was used. Metal residues or what looked like it were build up.. The cleared the clog and replaced the valve of the sewer outlet.. He explained to me the sewer outlet was very old and there were lots of derbies from deterioration residues.. They replaced the part which is outside the wall. The had to go to store to get the right size valve. They were very clean. I am happy for the work. He gave me advice what not to put in the garbage disposal and explained the plumbing of my house to me. The whole job did not take very long. I definitely would use their service again."

"I bought the big deal for three men for two hours for $149 - a steal in any situation.  Alex then charged $80 for use of the truck.  Despite horrendous traffic, the three personable young men efficiently cleared out a storage unit, loaded the truck and off-loaded everything in good shape and accessible. They followed my directions, made suggestions of their own and everything worked out well for all.

"The plumbers were very knowledgeable and quickly figured out the problem with the faucet installation and how to fix it. They also spotted that the “new” faucet contained parts that had been used before, and we got the store to provide new replacements for them."

"Art was extremely helpful and accommodating at every step of the project, from bidding through scheduling and even some additional work we needed a few weeks later. The team worked efficiently, doing a new main line install (going under our sidewalk and concrete without any demolition), re-piped the horizontal pipes under the house with copper (they were 100 year old galvanized), and setup a new shut off and regulator outside. They did everything in a day and cleaned up nicely. When we had other contractors working on our foundation 2 weeks later, they bent over backwards to get plumbers out the next day to make some fixes to drain pipe and at an excellent price. I got quotes from three companies and Repipe Pro was the most competitive and also great responsiveness from Art and his wife Thelma who run the business. To anyone looking for a repipe of a home or new main line or having drain work done, I definitely recommend contacting Art at Repipe Pro."

"After our renters moved out, we decided to do some work on our rental home but had a short time frame to find a contractor. Since this is our rental, we wanted the work to be started right away so that we could quickly find new renters to move in. We called a few referrals and contractors from Angie's List but none was available for a job within the next few weeks. Luckily, we found OMC and Tony. We scheduled a meeting within a couple of days, received a reasonable quote verbally, discussed some additions/changes and received a final quote in writing. We agreed to move forward and his team started demo started within the next couple of days!
We wanted a budget but functional and stylish remodel for the bathroom, mostly to address recurring plumbing problems in the old 1950s shower. This was our first time working with a contractor for a project this large and our first time remodeling anything, so we appreciated the guidance and recommendations on materials and vendors that we received from Tony. For example, he counseled us to use porcelain tile in the kitchen and bath floor for maximum durability, and he helped clarify which items we needed to purchase (tile, fixtures, grout, paint) vs the materials he would provide. If I were to offer any suggestions to folks remodeling their homes for the first time, it would be to identify all of those materials needed as early as possible, and buy extra -- Home Depot has a great return policy for unused materials. I ran out of the tile I purchased a couple of times, slowing down OMC's work. Luckily they were very patient and able to work on other areas of the home until my next shipments came in.
We ended up doing a full bathroom remodel, tearing out a tiny old cave-like shower and replacing it with a lighter and brighter glass-walled stall (installed separately by outside vendor). A dividing wall was cut down into a pony wall, a vent pipe moved, niches built into shower and bath walls, repiping done (hallelujah!), fixtures installed, and tile installed meticulously. We also replaced the most antique elements of the home (wallpaper, linoleum floors, dirty carpet) with newly coated/painted walls and modern flooring.
All I can say is that we now love our "new" rental home! The house is completely transformed and looks contemporary and high end. We were able to raise rent 13% after the remodel.
I've heard many horror stories about contractors over the years, so I feel lucky that my first experience in this world with Tony/OMC was a great one. I can't say enough how amazing it was working with a contractor/team that I could trust to do a solid job on every detail even when I was not around to check up on their progress each day (more like every other weekend). It was my preference to communicate with Tony mostly via text message, and I found it was very convenient to be able to receive updates and make quick decisions in this manner. When any bigger decisions were needed, he would contact me immediately and we would talk on the phone or meet at the house to look at what needed to be done. As the majority of the work wrapped up, Tony and his team were very quick to address any little details we wanted touched up or changed to perfect the work. It was such a pleasure working with him, and I would not hesitate to work with OMC again or to recommend them to my friends... in fact, I already have.

Install Garbage Disposal FAQs, answered by experts

While unplugging your garbage disposal and plugging it back in may help, most units have an actual reset button, a bright red switch found on the underside of your unit. If your garbage disposal needs resetting, you may notice this button sticking out about a quarter of an inch from the surface of the unit, with which it’s usually flush. Simply depress this reset button to reset the unit, and then test to ensure it’s working about 10 minutes later.

The two main negatives of garbage disposals are they are a safety hazard in homes with children, and they frequently encounter blockage issues. While they might be annoying to fix and monitor, garbage disposals can significantly lower your trash use and are a great way to dispose of organic waste. While there are negatives, the vast majority of homeowners acknowledge the positives are enough to install a disposal in their home. 

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.

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.

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.
