"Very pleased with EcoWater Systems. Marcus came out to our house to explain our options based on our water quality. We have very hard water, which we knew, so we didn't qualify for the water softener that was only $1200.00, however, he still had a coupon for several hundred dollars off of another system. We had already shopped for systems and knew this was a fair price. We felt he gave an honest presentation and was not a hard sell or pushed us to up-sell, which we liked. He did offer additional  products and services but when we decided against them, he did not push us. The installation was scheduled two days later (per our schedule, he could have had it next day). The installer, Dave, was very professional. He clearly explained the process prior to the start, cleaned up thoroughly when he was finished, and gave a very good brief explanation of the product and what we would need to do (which turns out to be nothing because their route maintenance is extremely reasonable and we signed up for it). We have only had the system for one day but everything they told us worked just as expected. I saved some water from the tap prior to the install to compare with after the install and the difference was amazing! So far, we can already tell the difference in drinking quality, laundry and showers. The fact that the regeneration water is beneficial to our yard (potassium) is just one more added benefit! I would definitely recommend the company and the product.

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.

"Plumber was prompt and arrived when scheduled.  He unclogged my bathroom pool toilet.  He then gave me a price for the installation of a laundry tub.  He came the next day and neatly broke through the garage wall to get to the pipes to be able to install  the laundry tub.  This precise cutting of the sheetrock made it possible for my husband to reinstall it  without any problem.  I would recommend this company and will use them again."

"We had quarts countertops installed and tile work in the kitcken and three bathroom remodeled with quarts countertops installed as my project. I am extremely satisfied with how well they communicated with me. The various work crews were polite, professional, and highly skilled. The level of detail to ensure the project ran smoothly from the demolition, installation, and clean up was beyond my expectations. This is a top notch organization and would be the first company I will call for future projects."

"I worked with many contractors from Angi, a few of them are terrible. But surface professionals LLC is extremely good, they are very professional and honest, provide me very detailed proposal, ask and answer my questions, they help me to order the tile and take care of the delivery. Start and Finish the floor installation on time, keep my house and furniture very clean. Excellent job. Highly recommend them."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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. 

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.

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 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.

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.
