I understand the needs of customer's first-hand and strive to offer the quickest, most reliable service in the midwest.

I'm a sole proprietor. On very rare occasion, I may need to sub-contract a portion of your repairs. I'm centrally located along the shores of Lake Shelbyville, my shop is just SE of Findlay. Generally, we will discuss payment. It largely depends on the scope of the project. You and I will sit down and discuss completion goals, and if a large project, payment may be required in measurable and pre approved stages.

Courteous and Friendly Professional Movers with 10 years exp! We will give you the attention and personal service you deserve! Loading, Unloading, Driving, Packing N Unpacking, High Quality Service! Additional Contact Name - Cristi Leibold. Additional Email - [email protected].

"They showed up two hours late. We paid extra to have our property insured. After several pieces of furniture were damaged, we found out their insurance company does not exist. They drove my car instead of towing it because I had an extra 1,400 miles added. They were 36 hours late, and only one showed up to unload the truck instead of two, so I had to help him, so why am I paying you? Looking at their gas receipts on a map, they went way out of the way, my assumption is to go to casinos. They wouldn't answer their phone, after I left several phone messages, even when I used different phone numbers to call them."

Garbage Removal questions, answered by experts

The two main negatives of garbage disposals are they are a safety hazard in homes with children, and they frequently encounter blockage issues. While they might be annoying to fix and monitor, garbage disposals can significantly lower your trash use and are a great way to dispose of organic waste. While there are negatives, the vast majority of homeowners acknowledge the positives are enough to install a disposal in their home. 

Once you have your garbage disposal disconnected, you can remove the mounting bracket by unscrewing the bolts that are holding the bracket. You can back them out just enough to pop off the snap ring, which prevents the bottom portion of the bracket from disconnecting from the top when you unscrew the bolts. Use a regular screwdriver to pop off the snap ring, and the rest of the components should fall off by themselves.

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.

You can pour boiling water down the garbage disposal only when cleaning it. Use hot water to flush baking soda and vinegar down the drain for a quick clean-up. For running food down the disposal, always use cold water.

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.
