"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"
"I was very happy with the service provided by Anthony and his crew. They communicated with me constantly, were easy to approach with questions and they worked quickly. There seemed to be a lot of attention to detail. All the debris and asphalt were carted away and the job was left clean. They will be back in the spring when the trenching can be regraded and reseeded. I waited to do this review until we had one good freeze and one good soaking rain and this was the week it happened. No water in the window well, water eliminating where it is supposed to be, and no water near my foundation. Thanks AJ! .
"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 was very pleased with my experience with Griswold Plumbing, they installed a new shower faucet/showerhead and later a water treatment system. They were prompt, very professional, and courteous going the extra mile when needed. I highly recommend Griswold Plumbing and won't hesitate to call them again."
"Lov's wife set up the appointment. A phone call confirmed Lov's arrival time. He was on time. He worked neatly and efficiently to fix the leak. It was Saturday of Labor Day weekend. Lov and his wife were pleasant. Overall a great experience."
"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. "
"We recently hired Mike to install a new shower for us. He showed up on time and left the place as he found it no dust very clean and efficient. We would recomend mike 10 out of 10 times."
Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts
If the cost of repairing a leaking garbage disposal is close to the cost of replacing the disposal, then fixing the unit might not make sense. When deciding if you should repair or replace your garbage disposal, consider the age of your garbage disposal, the cost of the repair, and whether your garbage disposal has had other problems recently to help you decide if the cost of repairing the leak is better than the cost of replacing the disposal.
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.
Replacing a garbage disposal costs anywhere from $150 to $950, but the average cost is somewhere around $550. There are two types of garbage disposal units, and continuous feed disposals tend to cost more than batch feed disposals. Going for an aluminum garbage disposal is also significantly cheaper than choosing a stainless steel garbage disposal. You'll also need to factor in the horsepower of the motor, labor, and the removal and disposal of your old unit.
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.
Whether it's worth repairing your garbage disposal depends on its age and the specific problem. Generally, if the unit is eight years old or younger, repair is a good option. For minor issues like a bad seal or a simple jam, a repair can be inexpensive, sometimes under $10. However, if the motor is broken (a repair that can cost $150 or more) or the unit is getting old, it's often more cost-effective to replace the entire disposal.
