"Required plumbing services due to a leaking pipe at the main water line shut-off valve located within the outside wall of our home. Viking was highly recommended by a party that just recently had used them.  We contacted them, provided pictures of the problem, and were given a quote over the phone.  First company who gave a quote from looking at the picture, we didn't have to pay extra for a trip charge.  We scheduled repairs for the next day.  Aaron called before scheduled time with ETA and was on time.   He was very informative, courteous and helpful. He constantly updated us throughout the repair cycle as to findings discovered once the wall was opened with options. Aaron has pride in his work and reputation. We learned so much from him.  A fine young man, which says a lot about his parents. It was such a great experience, he gave us options without being pushy at all, we were so relieved and comfortable with him and felt that he was very trustworthy.  We would highly recommend Viking Sewer and Camera Inspections and will use them again."

"Everything, from start to finish, was top-notch and professional. The owners came out first to assess the project and then sent the crew back a few hours later and they were able to take care of my sink clog pretty quickly. This company is one I would highly recommend and I will use them again should I be in need of plumbing services. Another company wanted to charge us almost double to do the work. Encinas Plumbing does superior work at a fair and honest price. Everyone I met on the Encinas team was professional, courteous with a high level of expertise. They cleaned up very nicely once the work was completed and sincerely appreciated my business."

"Horrible place ... Spent 500 to them to fix one problem and after they came I had more problems to fix.... I tried telling the. For months it was something they did... They then told me no it wasn't then and something magically broke when they fixed the other issue... Telling me I needed to spend another 500 to fix a broken piece... And they never actually looking inside to find the problem ... Just said they knew what it was... So a month later I smelled burning from my dryer .. almost on fire at that point because they put belt on wrong pulley... Dangerous .. could've burned house down if I hadn't caught the smell in living room before going to lay down..... After I got belt fixed by other company .. another 200 plus dollars they created ... I called and told them the issue they caused... They denied it. Like in the past ., and said nope we didn't do it.... And refused to stand by their work and honor the fact they made a mistake... The Russian guys that did the work were very smug and spoke in Russian the entire time doing the work so I had no idea what they were saying .. and I have no issues with anyone .. but it made me feel like there was a reason they were not speaking so I could understand them . Bc they spoke English fine when I asked something ... Had this all not have happened I wouldn't even bring it up ... I just don't want anyone to go through what I went through... I couldn't dry clothes at night bc my sister couldn't sleep bc of the screeching noise it made after they replaced the element .... RUN THE OTHER WAY"

Garbage Disposal Repair questions, answered by experts

Garbage disposals last an average of seven years but can function well past 10 years. However, as time goes on and more food is ground, the grinding plates will slowly lose their edge and need replacing. A motor likely won’t last 10 or more years, but you should be able to get a minimum of five years at least, even under heavy usage. 

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.

Generally speaking, it’s absolutely worth it to repair a garbage disposal, so long as it’s eight years old or younger. Once you pass that eight-year threshold, it depends on the issue. If it’s a simple jam and the core components remain unaffected, call a local plumber for a quick repair. If it seems like the motor is wearing down, spring for a replacement unit. 

As with many appliances, proper maintenance is key to maximizing your garbage disposal’s life span. If everyone in your household is on board with proper care and maintenance, like running water while operating the disposal, you should get plenty of years out of your unit. Avoid putting the wrong food items down the disposal, including pasta, rice, bread, and more.

No, you don’t need a garbage disposal for a dishwasher. A dishwasher will work without a garbage disposal. However, the two appliances pair well and are often installed together. It is rare to see a home with a dishwasher that doesn’t have a garbage disposal, but that doesn’t mean it's not possible. Each appliance serves its own purpose.
