"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!"

"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."

"KBK Construction recently remodeled a guest bathroom for us and we are extremely pleased with their work! Karol provided high quality workmanship and professionalism in all aspects of the remodel. Both the tub surround tile and the floor tile were expertly done. The vanity, sink and all fixtures were installed beautifully as well. Karol provided updates as needed, and if a problem arose, he would offer suggestions for ways to solve the issue. Karol and his assistant arrived on time each day and everything was completely cleaned up at the end of the day. We always knew the work schedule for the day. We plan to hire KBK Construction for a master bath and kitchen remodel."

"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"

"On-time appointment was a great start to what turned out to be a long, long day.  Water was tested, and hot water heating improvements were discussed (I learned a lot!)  The foot-valve was not the issue.  Tim, hustled to the job-site where we adjusted our plan which was now to install a new well-pump, this time an in-well pump while we re-piped the run from well to cellar (and its conditioning unit.)  The water came back on well after dark with no complaints by the gung-ho team of Griswold.  The following week, per our newly scheduled follow-up appointment Jeremy showed up (again, of course on time) and began the task of installing a UV light in our new (and working!) water system.  As I was working and could not check in as I'd done on our prior appointment I was happy to find (when freeing myself of work and checking in with the plumber near the end of my his job) that he'd checked off 3 or 4 of the minor to medium-sized tasks on our list.  Great initiative and a nice relief.  We then went over our (now revised) plan to tend to the other issues on property and I have the utmost confidence that Griswold will once again follow through professionally, courteously, and with a keen eye on quality and good-heartedness.  Thank you.

"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.

"I really want to thank everyone (sales rep, crew, foreman, etc) for
improving my families air quality. My husband and my son both have
asthma, and have been having a very difficult time breathing lately. The
sales rep actually performed a mold test in the house, and I found the
mold I thought was only on the walls was actually in the air in my
entire house. They came a few days later to install an Easy-Breathe
system and later came to fix my basement water issues.
 I chose Dry-X  Waterproofing because I know a lot of contractors,
and they agree that the company stands behind the product and service.
Another "big" reason I chose them is because they have done business
under the same name for many, many years.
It has been a couple weeks since the basement was complete, and the
dirt is still settling and the basement is a lot less damp and humid. I
am so happy I decided to choose Dry-X . Every single person I dealt
with was professional and courteous to me, my husband, and my children.
We highly recommend using their services.

Install Garbage Disposal questions, 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.

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.

On average, it takes one to four hours for a professional to install a garbage disposal. This includes removing the old unit, taking necessary measurements for positioning, removing and fitting new pipes, and installing the brand-new disposal system. If there are unforeseen issues, such as accessibility concerns, the process takes longer.

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.

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.
