"I have now had 4 pickups from this company. Each time it has been with different items: I have had my kitchen remodeled, a deck torn down and rebuilt, a new roof put on, old fencing disc arded, and a yard cleanup. The only difference in pricing was for the roofing and even though ti was more money it was STILL CHEAPER than a dumpster!!! I don't know how these guys do it, but they pickup on time, without issue andfor the cost quoted. I have turned each of my contractors onto them - now they are using them. SO MUCH cheaper and better service than any dumpster company I have used!"
"I believe it went great the pricing was was on point and accurate the work was very cleanI've absolutely no issues with the work that they've done installing my new shower and my new tub and my two toilets everything was great"
"Technicians were courteous and prompt and even called ahead to offer to fit us in earlier, which we accepted. Resolved the issue in a professional manner and made the inspection and provided an estimate that was well within the range of prices we had looked at from other sources. Work was done quickly and professionally, and the garbage disposal was repaired with no issues. Would definitely hire them again for future plumbing needs."
"The job was done quickly and professionally. Demo and installation was started and completed within one week's time (May 20-May 27). The results look fantastic and we are very satisfied."
"I called Oliver Beer of Bauhaus because he had done work for us last fall. He gave me an estimated price that was agreeable. Once he started work he discovered, that like the windows he had installed in our garage last fall, the bathroom needed more work than estimated. Because my husband was going to be released from rehab in a matter of weeks, it was work that needed completion as soon as possible. Oliver worked week-ends and the 4th of July, for a total of 30+ days, removing the old plaster and putting up new wallboard. He got the old tub out and put in a beautiful shower floor; installed a new heating element; ceiling fan/light; a new medicine cabinet, flush and vanity sink. It took him more than 300 hours to give us a showroom quality bath. Incidentally, he painted our living room so that it would be comfortable for my husband to spend most of his time in. This older house challenged him at every project he started, whether it was the plumbing, ceiling lights or lack of outlets in the living room. i will certainly hire him if we need more work done in the done in the future"
"I purchased an deal for $99 for 2 hours of labor. Originally I intended to apply the time toward replacement of a shower faucet, but the same week, three gate valves in my basement began to fail. Lew was very responsive and able to accommodate my schedule, and replaced all three valves with ball valves as well as the piping in the area. I purchased an additional $150 worth of parts from Lew which are warrantied for a year. What I appreciated most was Lew's evaluation of the shower faucet, which he looked at while he was at my house. He pointed out that the faucet that I had purchased would not meet my long-term needs and made recommendations so that I could purchase (on my own) a model that would be better for me. He also gave a very rough quote for the labor that would be required. Lew could have just installed the faucet I purchased and waited until it failed in another year and installed another one and made twice as much money, but he didn't. I'll certainly have him back again. "
"They were a very hardworking crew and pleasant to deal with. When John showed up, he took a good amount of time to think about the job and come up with some creative ideas to make the job run smoothly. The first day was just for job preparation. They prepped the area with heavy tarps and plastic to keep the area clean. "
Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts
You may be able to install a garbage disposal on your own, especially if you're handy or have some experience with plumbing. However, if you have any concerns or want to make absolutely sure that the connections are installed correctly, you may be better off hiring a local garbage disposal installer to do the job.
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.
It’s one thing that helps, alongside vinegar and baking soda. Ice acts as an exfoliant, helping to lift off any bits of food stuck on the disposal blades.
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.
Once you have your garbage disposal disconnected, you can remove the mounting bracket by unscrewing the bolts that are holding the bracket. You can back them out just enough to pop off the snap ring, which prevents the bottom portion of the bracket from disconnecting from the top when you unscrew the bolts. Use a regular screwdriver to pop off the snap ring, and the rest of the components should fall off by themselves.
