"Truly a custom plumbing job beautifully done for an old cottage. It should be seen. Jamie hunted down and FOUND a rare water heater, installed on a Saturday morning no extra charge and added a bonus freeze proof external hose bib with easy shut off and NEW lines! He was diligent, focused and positive. The new beautiful sauntered lines look like art. THANK YOU FOR BEING THE FIRST CONTRACTOR IN A LONG TIME WHO I ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND. “GOT YOUR 6 ” Plumbing: -found and order a rare sized water heater -installed it thru a small opening-crawling dozens of feet across a narrow space - replaced a cheap hose bib and the flimsy plastic lines with sturdy plumbing - drove 40 minutes on two lane back roads then miles on a one lane road to the property on a Saturday morning pulling a trailer! Thank you so much for the peace of mind that a leak free hot hot water heater and the joy of a fancy hose bib. (Appreciate the koozies ! )"

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

While unplugging your garbage disposal and plugging it back in may help, most units have an actual reset button, a bright red switch found on the underside of your unit. If your garbage disposal needs resetting, you may notice this button sticking out about a quarter of an inch from the surface of the unit, with which it’s usually flush. Simply depress this reset button to reset the unit, and then test to ensure it’s working about 10 minutes later.

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.

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.

Whether it's worth repairing your garbage disposal depends on its age and the specific problem. Generally, if the unit is eight years old or younger, repair is a good option. For minor issues like a bad seal or a simple jam, a repair can be inexpensive, sometimes under $10. However, if the motor is broken (a repair that can cost $150 or more) or the unit is getting old, it's often more cost-effective to replace the entire disposal.

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.
