"It went fine. They did a good job of working around the maze of piping under our kitchen sink, trouble shooting, and giving me clear descriptions of 2 different repair options. The repair person had some good advice regarding removing grease build
up ourselves and how to avoid clogs that may come from a garbage disposal. (I don't know if ours did.)
The only thing I didn't like was that the bill at the end seemed a little high, and they didn't include a breakdown of how they had arrived at that amount. (e.g. parts and service hourly costs. Big Deal discounts, etc.)

"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.

"Mike and Matt were great, they were skilled, efficient, and friendly. I thought replacing an under-mount stainless steel sink in an existing granite cutout would be very difficult at best. I knew replacing the faucet and disposal would be a routine job. I was pleasantly surprised that the entire job went fine and they were finished in 2.5 hours. They cleaned up the work area and hauled away the old sink, etc. I will say that their prices are high, but I was willing to pay for quality work, especially with the tricky sink replacement."

"It worked wonderful for us. I didn't have to pay anything extra. Because they were so good with the installation and great to work with, a couple of weeks ago, I just had someone else from Black Diamond over here to sign up an annual contract with them."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

There are many maintenance and repair issues that lead to a malfunctioning garbage disposal. Regular clogs place wear and tear on the motors, leading to an eventual shutdown. Electrical issues at the breaker, wall outlet, or disposal itself can fry the unit. The most common cause is simply a worn-down motor. These motors can only handle so much use before powering down for good. 

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.

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.

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.

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.
