"It was a great deal and I'm glad we had it done. The crew did the assigned work quickly and efficiently, reporting the results to me and answering my questions about other work. They offered me an alternative for rodding the waste stacks and we are considering it. There was no heavy pressure, just good information and description. It's more expensive than what we are doing now but the technique looked interesting so I will pursue and get back to them. Even if we don't do the hydroblasting we may still use this company for the rest of our work."

"I called Reliable Basement Services (RBS) to get some information.  Although they use an answering service when busy, I got a quick call back from Lisa.  She was extremely helpful in answering my long list of questions.  I scheduled the service and to my surprise they were able to come out in 2 days!  
The installer called ahead of time and asked to come early, which worked out great for me.  He was extremely thorough, conscientious, cleaned up his work, and most important thorough.  He did an excellent job of asking me questions where he thought I might have a preference and explaining the new system.  Two example: 1) the sump pit lid had been hacked up due to a radon mitigation system and was quite messy.  The installer informed me and gave me a couple of options.  2) I had originally wanted a conduit hole sealed due to water intrusion.  After inspecting it and calling his supervisor, he recommended an electrician come out to look at it more thoroughly.  I had him seal another instead and it was a small up-charge since it was a larger job. 
I was extremely happy with the price too!  I shopped around calling about half a dozen plumbers.  RBS was on the less expensive side w/ the Angie's list discount, and considering that I got better equipment than some of the cheaper estimates, I feel like I got the best product and services all for a great price!  I would highly recommend them to anyone.

"The coupon deal was exactly what we needed to discover the origin of a leak identified by our newly installed water meter system.  Matt and Mike were both courteous, personable and professional.  They quickly completed the inspections, determined the leak and estimated repairs.  The plus was we took them around and discussed additional plumbing projects/problems and Matt wrote up a detailed estimate for each on the spot!  Estimates are so important in planning and budgeting for all our projects.  In addition, we appreciate they are a family owned, local business.  Thank you J.Blanton Plumbing's Mike and Matt for a great experience!

"Everything went great. Having repeated back-ups in the basement I decided it was time to do something. Black Diamond came out and put a snake camera down the access pipe while I watched. I was able to see the several places where roots had become an issue in the outside pipe. After explaining my options clearly I decided to have them install an outside access pipe to get to the "root" of the problems more easily. The pricing was fair and they came out exactly when they said they would - even though the temps were around zero outside! Despite the cold the work was done pretty quickly. The only drawback is a minor one. A mound was left behind at the dig site which I was told would settle after the ground thawed and perhaps some rains. It did settle a little bit, but there is still a good sized mound of dirt in my front yard. No big deal. I have had no plumbing issues since they installed the pipe and did a proper routing of the pipes. Overall great job.

"Since this is the 1st time I change HVAC system, I spent quite of time on researching various brands and contractors. After reading consumer report, reviews in Angie's list/Yelp, and talking to friends, neighbors and colleagues, I finally decided to go with TDH Mechanical for Trane system.

The reason I selected TDH is simply: best price + best system + 12-year labor warranty. Based on consumer report, Trane is one of the top tree who has the least reported issues. And some friend highly recommend me Trane system. Then, I went to Trane's website to find TDH listed as one of the local authorized dealer and also read all their reviews on Angie's list to confirm that they could provide quality service. I thought it could be expensive, but surprisingly, their quote beat all the other contractors I've talked to. And they're the only dealer who provide 12-year labor warranty.

After the installation, I knew that I made the best decision. The technicians are very nice, polite, knowledgeable and most importantly, did a fantastic job on installing the new system. Brian, the main salesman, is also very nice and responsive. I was so happy to work with him as well during the whole process from quoting to installation."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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.

In some cases, it’s more cost-effective in the long run to replace a garbage disposal, but it depends on the specific issue you’re having and the age of your disposal. You should ask a garbage disposal repair tech for a quote to repair your appliance and then see if it would be more worthwhile to replace it. Additionally, garbage disposals last for around 15 years, so if you know your appliance is reaching that age, it’s likely better to pay for a new garbage disposal rather than sink money into repairs.

These appliances do unscrew, but you need to disconnect everything properly when you replace your garbage disposal. Make sure you shut the power off to the area first and check that it’s off with a voltage detector. Disconnect the main drain line and P-trap, and then disconnect the dishwasher drain line if you have one connected. You can then unscrew your garbage disposal using a disposal wrench. Just make sure you disconnect the electrical lines before removing your appliance.

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.

Never put glass in the garbage disposal. It can damage your disposal or eject shards of glass out of the disposal and cause injury. If you get broken glass in your garbage disposal, turn it off and cut the power from the breaker, use a tool like pliers or tongs to remove the glass, and use a wet-dry vacuum to remove the remaining glass pieces. If you can’t access the disposal safely, call a garbage disposal repair pro.
