"I recently had a junk haul done and couldn’t be happier with the service. My nephew referred me, and I’m glad I listened because the whole process was smooth from start to finish. They showed up on time, were professional, and worked quickly without cutting corners. What really stood out was how respectful they were of my space—they made sure everything was cleaned up before they left, which I definitely appreciated. Pricing was fair, no surprises, and they handled everything from old furniture to random clutter with no issues at all. If you’re looking for a reliable junk removal company, I’d definitely recommend giving them a call."

"I retained J G to remove caulk and to re-caulk in and around a bathtub and a shower in two bathrooms (old caulking was 25 years old and badly worn-out and cracking). Also, J G fixed a wooden door strip to a bathroom door and did some needed re-caulking around a kitchen sink. Work was done promptly after hire and excellently in less than one day,"

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

On average, a garbage disposal can last anywhere from 7 to 12 years, with many models functioning well for about 10 years. With heavy usage, a motor may last a minimum of five years, while grinding plates will wear down over time. It's generally a good idea to consider a replacement if your unit is approaching the 10-year mark. Other signs that it's time for a new disposal include frequent leaks, persistent clogs, lingering odors, lack of power, or unusual noises. If your unit is not that old, it's worth investigating if a less expensive part, like a rubber seal or a loose hose, is causing the issue.

If the cost of repairing a leaking garbage disposal is close to the cost of replacing the disposal, then fixing the unit might not make sense. When deciding if you should repair or replace your garbage disposal, consider the age of your garbage disposal, the cost of the repair, and whether your garbage disposal has had other problems recently to help you decide if the cost of repairing the leak is better than the cost of replacing the disposal.

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.

Continuous feed garbage disposals are the favorite model for many homeowners for a reason. As opposed to batch feed models, add food scraps to the drain whenever the disposal is running. This variety is also typically less expensive, more convenient, and easier to clean.

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.
