"Our 25-year old garbage disposal died and backed up our kitchen sink. We needed it replaced quickly. Most companies we called were 2-4 days out. “At Your Service Plumbing” was able to come out that afternoon. The technician called and said he was running ahead of schedule and would it be OK for him to come early. We were happy to accommodate him. He quoted us a price before he started the project. The price was reasonable and we gave him the OK to proceed. He replaced the garbage disposal in a reasonable amount of time and addressed our questions and concerns throughout the process. When he completed the job, he ran the new garbage disposal and it was clear that the kitchen drain was also clogged and needed to be snaked. That was likely the problem all along. He quoted us a price to snake the drain that was based on completing the project within a 1-hour timeframe. He showed us what the price would be for each additional 15-minute interval. He was very upfront with the pricing and it seemed reasonable to us, so we gave him the OK to proceed. The clock didn’t start until he actually started snaking the drain. We were not charged for his time to bring in the equipment and disconnect the plumbing. It was a very difficult process and he ended up using two different snakes to get the job accomplished, but he was successful and completed the job within the 1-hour timeframe. He worked very diligently and efficiently. We were very satisfied with the end result and will certainly call them first the next time we have a plumbing issue."

"Within the last two years, we had used Proserve to repair our fridge and our hot water tank.  I had been very pleased with their staff, services, and fair pricing.  When one of our upstairs toilets stopped working, I decided to call Proserve to try their plumbing services.  I am extremely happy I did. 

Sam and his son, Marshall, were sent on the call to our house.  I love these guys; they are the reason I did all these plumbing projects now.  They listen to what I want and suggest repairs that are functional and aesthetically pleasing while trying to keep my costs low.  They are extremely neat and clean up after their work; true professionals.

We bought our home, a foreclosed house, about two years ago from FNMA.  It was built in 1998 and the plumbing had not been updated or well maintained.   We knew it was time for plumbing updates and repairs. 

Toilets and Flanges Replacement: They only charged me $200 per toilet replacement which included labor and the actual toilet. I have seen other plumbers advertise $190 for just the labor and you provide the toilet!  These are nice standard low flow toilets, which flush adequately with just one flush. 

Of course, the flange replacements were not included in the $200.  They cleaned and disinfected during each step of the repairs.  Sam came on a Wednesday to do the estimate for the toilet replacements, and was able to come the next morning to do the work.
Outdoor Irrigation Pressure Regulator:  They replaced the pressure regulator for our irrigation system which had cracked during the winter.  They emphasized we should get an insulated cover to use during the winter months.

Roman Tub Faucet Replacement:  When the faucet handle of my Roman tub fell off, Lowes and Home Depot told me that I would have to remove the entire tub to gain access to the pipes or I would need to try to repair the old faucet by ordering parts from Moen.  I put this repair off for months.  When Sam did the toilets estimate, I asked him for advice about the Roman tub.  He noticed that the toilet closet was behind the Roman tub faucet.  He said he could cut into the toilet closet wall to access the Roman tub?s pipes and then put in a removable access panel so we could always have easy access to these pipes.  I liked his plan so we did it.  A few months ago, I put new faucets in the sinks of this bathroom.  Sam took photos then found me a Kohler Roman tub faucet to match the style of the sink faucets.  He created the access panel with an attractive removable cover and installed the new faucet; looks great.

Replace Kitchen Sink and Faucet:  This was a tricky installation as we have ceramic counter tops and I wanted a bigger deeper sink.  Sam and Marshall had to cut the ceramic tile, rework the under-sink plumbing, remove and reinstall the garbage disposal to
fit the larger new Kohler stainless steel sink into the cabinetry.  They did an amazing job that looks beautiful.
I am extremely pleased with the quality of work, materials, and fixtures that Sam and Marshall of ProServ provided me.  I think the pricing was fair for the amount of work done and the quality of the toilets, faucets, and sinks.  I plan to use their services again. I have already suggested my mother-in-law use them for her future plumbing repairs and would recommend them to my friends."

"I was super impressed with Rocky Mountain services. They showed up after their normal business hours because I was freaking out.. my furnace went out all of a sudden and my house was freezing to the point I was afraid the pipes would freeze. No one else answered the phone but Rocky Mountain services answered right away and came out immediately. They got the heat back on that same night. I’d highly recommend them to family and friends. Infact, they’re coming back in the spring to install an AC unit for our house before summer. Super excited!!!"

"Les was helpful before he even arrived. I needed a new filter and other parts and Les suggested that I order them online and that he would install them. That way I could save the cost of him coming out to figure out the specific parts and ordering them himself. Les and his co-worker then were able to schedule an appointment with me within 48 hours of my call and they arrived promptly at the agreed upon time. They did the start up and repairs and explained why why the repairs were needed and how to avoid them in the future. Les also offered helpful tips about making the swamp cooler work more effectively in my house by opening different windows than I had been."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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. 

While the drain connection for a garbage disposal is nearly universal and fits standard sink drain holes of 3 1/2 to 4 inches, the size of the disposal unit itself is not. You must have enough space in the cabinet underneath your sink to accommodate the disposal's housing. A larger model may not fit in a compact cabinet or if the existing plumbing is arranged in an unusual way. Before buying a new garbage disposal, measure the available space under your sink. If you are replacing an old unit, it's often easiest to choose a new model of a similar size.

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.

Most garbage disposals have a reset button that can be triggered with a tool as simple and accessible as your index finger. That said, if you need to perform a more in-depth troubleshooting step, like manually moving the arms inside the unit or rotating the impeller plate, a hex wrench is the most common tool you’ll need. Most garbage disposals come with a hex wrench.

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.
