"Since Karol and KBK construction had previously renovated two bathrooms in our home, we felt comfortable with having the work done while we were on vacation. We arrived home to beautifully done hardwood floors, sparkling white trim with new doors and new overhead lighting. The final price was as quoted. we couldn't be happier with the job."
"This is the kind of guy you want on your job. Name a quality as a tradesman, he has it - responsive, punctual, skilled, hard working, reliable. But perhaps his best quality is as a person: he's honest and fair. When Troy schedules something, tells you what has to happen, gives you choices, you can be sure he is giving it to you square. I've used Troy numerous times and he has always created solutions and improved the project. I've called him on a Sunday after botching some electrical work and he came right over, and for a very reasonable price. He can do anything. He is also very tech savvy and can make your head spin with his digital estimates with photos of the work. I highly endorse Troy Rosebrock. Great guy. "
"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. "

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts
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.
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.
If your garbage disposal powers up and you can hear it hum, but the arms inside aren’t moving, the problem might be a stubborn clog, a build-up of grease, or a jam of the impeller plate. To troubleshoot these, ensure your unit is off and disconnected from its power source before checking inside the drain or attempting to manually rotate the impeller arms or plate from the underside of the unit. A hex wrench can help.
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.
The most common garbage disposal size in the U.S. is 1/2 horsepower. This size is ideal for households with three or fewer people or those that don't produce much food waste. Although 1/2 horsepower can't handle the typical food waste load for a household of four (which is about 250 pounds of food waste annually) as effectively as 3/4 horsepower, it remains the most common size of garbage disposal on the market.
