"I hired James for two days last year to remove some broken tile from the bathroom and install a shower surround in its place. It's more complicated than it sounds because there's a window in that wall of the bathroom, and he also reconstructed the sill and border with water-safe materials rather than the original wood. He did the job quickly, the price was right and I was happy with the results.
This year I wanted to do some more work on the bathroom (see above), so I contacted James again. Again he was able to schedule the work quickly and gave me an estimate that was right in line with the preliminary figures we'd talked about the previous year. We agreed on which supplies I'd pick up and which ones he'd be responsible for, and he was responsive and helpful -- even loading a vanity I'd previously bought into his trailer and bringing it to Home Depot so I could return it when I decided I'd rather have a different one. There was an error with a can of paint he picked up for some of the painting I was going to do -- it was a deep base that needed to be tinted, so it didn't actually have any color on its own. James removed it from my bill for materials, and I bought my own replacement. This was a three-day project, and again I'm happy with how it turned out. The only issue was that we agreed he'd return the following week to rehang the mirror and the linen cabinet doors after I'd finished painting; I had a tough time getting a hold of him to pin down an appointment, and it ended up being the next week before those final touches were completed. I don't care about the delay itself -- it came about in part because of an illness in his family -- but the lack of communication that week was frustrating.
But overall, I can recommend James' work and his rates, and I will hire him again. We've discussed a Phase Three of the bathroom remodel, redoing the floor with tile later this year, and I've also considered having him do a collection of other jobs like installing a garbage disposal and painting the exterior doors."

Garbage Collection FAQs, answered by experts

No, you do not need a garbage disposal to have a dishwasher. A dishwasher will work without one, and while it's rare to see a home with a dishwasher that doesn't have a disposal, it is possible. The two appliances pair well and are often installed together because a disposal simplifies meal cleanup.

However, your dishwasher should not be used as a replacement for a garbage disposal. Subjecting it to continuous food leftovers can lead to major clogs. If you choose not to install a garbage disposal, you should thoroughly rinse your plates or scrape excess food into the trash or a compost pile before loading them into the dishwasher to prevent plumbing issues.

If your garbage disposal powers up and you can hear it hum, but the arms inside aren’t moving, the problem might be a stubborn clog, a build-up of grease, or a jam of the impeller plate. To troubleshoot these, ensure your unit is off and disconnected from its power source before checking inside the drain or attempting to manually rotate the impeller arms or plate from the underside of the unit. A hex wrench can help.

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.

These appliances certainly increase the number of things allowed down the drain, but they’re not foolproof. There are several items you shouldn’t put in your garbage disposal, according to manufacturers and technicians. Don’t put coffee grounds down the drain. The same goes for eggshells, potato peels, hard foods, onion skins, and any dry, expandable food. Most importantly, never put grease or oils down the drain.

While the drain connection for a garbage disposal is nearly universal and fits standard sink drain holes of 3 1/2 to 4 inches, the size of the disposal unit itself is not. You must have enough space in the cabinet underneath your sink to accommodate the disposal's housing. A larger model may not fit in a compact cabinet or if the existing plumbing is arranged in an unusual way. Before buying a new garbage disposal, measure the available space under your sink. If you are replacing an old unit, it's often easiest to choose a new model of a similar size.
