"Eli came at a moment's notice to check out the dishwasher and garbage disposal. He was professional and friendly and explained exactly what the issue was. He was able to stop the disposal from draining into the dishwasher and made sure the dishwasher was able to drain the water after each use. He explained how to avoid this issue in the future. I am so glad Eli was flexible and able to help us right away."

"It took a lot of detective work to find the problem (due to the rarity of the problem), but they discovered it and took care of the problem. They did a good job and cleaned up very well. They told us that if had they installed the water heater that this problem would not have happened. It was a ball of some sort that had blocked the hot water pipe and they always remove those when they install a new water heater."

"I am very happy with Tampa Bay Plumbers. Billy performed a very thorough inspection of my septic system, installed a new pump, and made his recommendations. The next day the two Carlos came out and installed risers, a new filter, and a new alarm. Jeff even came out and offered his assessment and advice. The employees at Tampa Bay Plumbers really know their business and are experts on various septic systems. I would recommend them to anyone needing septic work."

"Dan investigated the machine and told me how the whole process works. He pointed out a few things that were not set correctly and reset them. He said he could clean it, but if I had a shop vac, that I could do it and wouldn't need to pay him for that service. He then said the machine works fine and that moving it to the garage would be a waste of money because it was absolutely ok where it was. I was prepared to pay him to move it and had told him that upon arrival. After he reset the controls and showed me how to clean the tank, he got me started. It's clean and works fine, and I have knowledge for the future. Dan just asked for the $30 service call (Angie's List discount), and I was happy to pay. Great service, great price. I will not call anyone else other than Dan for any future needs with regard to water treatment or water softeners."

"

We purchased the $79 deal to get $200 worth of plumbing.   We requested that the plumber install a faucet in the bathroom and a garbage disposal.   He did install a faucet in the bathroom and told us not to use it for 24 hours.   We did not use it for at least 30 hours.   My son took a shower and when he turned the water off the faucet cover popped off and broke.    We were without a shower in that bathroom two more days until my husband fixed it himself.   The plumber said he would not replace our garbage disposal because it was not hooked up the way it was suppose to be.   He said he would come back out the following Monday (if we bought and install kit and gave him an extra $75).   Anyway, we could not afford to give them any additional money.   My husband installed the garbage disposal and the faucet himself.   I guess we spent $79 to take off the old faucet.   Not a great deal in my opinion.

He was able to resolve an issue with sewage backup that others were never able to fully fix. My husband and I are beyond pleased and happy we can now utilize our toilets and tub"

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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.

The two main negatives of garbage disposals are they are a safety hazard in homes with children, and they frequently encounter blockage issues. While they might be annoying to fix and monitor, garbage disposals can significantly lower your trash use and are a great way to dispose of organic waste. While there are negatives, the vast majority of homeowners acknowledge the positives are enough to install a disposal in their home. 

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. 

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.

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.
