"It is very convenient, and reasonably priced. The only thing that they could work on is the punctuality of the pick up times. The rest of the experience was satisfactory. My daughter has also used them. I would highly recommend this service."

"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. "
"the job was completed well we had a surprise with old water pips when he was installing the new sink but he replaced for me i bought the material and he fix and he did not charge me anything extra im very happy with my new kitchen Note: I had a lowers quote from a cabinet that would cost $ 14,000 only cabinets and he found for me one with very good quality included granite countertop for $ 8,400"

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts
These appliances do unscrew, but you need to disconnect everything properly when you replace your garbage disposal. Make sure you shut the power off to the area first and check that it’s off with a voltage detector. Disconnect the main drain line and P-trap, and then disconnect the dishwasher drain line if you have one connected. You can then unscrew your garbage disposal using a disposal wrench. Just make sure you disconnect the electrical lines before removing your appliance.
Garbage disposals are durable appliances that usually last at least eight years as long as you clean and maintain them. It’s relatively rare for a garbage disposal to break on its own, as most malfunctions happen due to user errors, like overstuffing the grinding compartment or damaging the blades by trying to dispose of metal or bone. Eventually, cracks or leaks could develop in the unit, which requires a full replacement.
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.
The main issue with garbage disposals is clogging. This can mean a clogging of the pipes that expel the food along with water, or a clogging of the mechanical parts themselves. The problem lies in the solution because you can’t easily see clogs if they’re inside the system, and reaching in to dislodge stuck items is a risky proposal. Call a pro and ask what they would do, but if you can’t see the clog easily, and running the unit won’t free it, you need to let a professional handle the fix.
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.
