"I called Green’s Environmental Services because they had amazing ratings on Angie’s List. I thought it might have been a really long time since the septic tank had been pumped out, and with the toilets having issues, I needed help quickly. They came out first thing the next morning and took care of everything with no attempts to upsell unnecessarily. They were incredibly easy to work with and the owner really went above and beyond to make sure everything was done correctly. Highly recommend these guys."

"We dealt directly with Steve. He 100% knows what he's doing. The city hires him for all kinds of things. We checked out quite a few competitors for water softener prices. Really no comparison. We ended up buying a water softener on Craig's List and then purchased the whole house filtration. Steve exceeded our expectations on the installation. YES I would use him again. Very knowledgable and competitive pricing."

"He came and inspected and gave a good honest opinion that no major repairs would be needed at the time. They did not try and upsell us and looked out for ways to save cost without replacing the current disposal.

"They were quick to respond and very professional. I can’t remember the name of the gentleman who came to find and fix our pool leak, but he was very professional, friendly, and thorough; he found one leak and fixed it quickly. We are very happy with the work."

"Excellent work done by Andre owner of A&W plumbing services. He excelled all expectations, timely, detail oriented, precise, quickly adapted to challenges while installing and cleaned up after work. He also took the old tank for disposal. I will recommend him for anyone who would need plumbing services at a reasonable price. Good job Angi in listing Andre as one of your service providers."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

While unplugging your garbage disposal and plugging it back in may help, most units have an actual reset button, a bright red switch found on the underside of your unit. If your garbage disposal needs resetting, you may notice this button sticking out about a quarter of an inch from the surface of the unit, with which it’s usually flush. Simply depress this reset button to reset the unit, and then test to ensure it’s working about 10 minutes later.

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. 

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.

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.
