"I initially contacted one of the big plumbing companies in the area for an estimate to install my new hybrid hot water heater.  The estimate that I received was exorbitantly high.  I called Peter Zereski and he immediately got back to me with a much more reasonable and appropriate estimate.  Once the heater was delivered, I contacted him again and he promptly set up an appointment to install.
Everything went very smoothly with installation. Peter was professional, courteous, and a really nice guy.  He facilitated a permit and inspection of the installation with the town.  Any questions that I had were quickly answered via email.  
I was very pleased with Peter Zereski.  He was a pleasure to work with and we will definitely call him in the future for any plumbing needs that we may have.

"Replied quickly, had lowest quoted price (significantly lower than my other quotes), did a really nice Roth tank installation in a tough spot, did NOT price gouge me for some extra piping that was needed, on time, cleaned up after work was completed. Solid A rating from me, I would recommend his services if your in need of an oil tank replacement or upgrade."

"All three jobs went great. For the water heater replacement Lewis came to my house at a convenient time for me, removed the heater changed out the rotted pipes and installed a new one with warranty. The price was great too. This job was time sensitive and he made me a priority to get it done. For the bathroom tub drain unclog he was very professional and did a great job. My garbage disposal was leaking and I came home to a pool of water in my cabinet and on the floor. Lewis came out quickly to resolve the issue for me. He replaced everything under the sink and showed me what he was doing each step of the way. I think that he is a great plumber if you want to get quality work and learn about each job too."

"We purchased to of the big deal coupons for toilet installation to replace low toilets with comfort height ones.  Scheduling was easy- Jake was available to come in the evening, and gave us several options for which day would work best for us.  He arrived on time and installed both toilets quickly and cleanly.  He also reviewed some other changes we were considering, and told us which were practical and which would require more extensive work.  We made arrangements to hire him again to install a disposal and he gave us very clear directions on what we needed for the job. Very happy with the service and will hire again.

"They arrived punctually and were very pleasant. Quickly completed work and provided a clever solution to a repair job that had perplexed us. We were amazed how much they accomplished in a day. We would have given them full marks in every category but next day we saw paint overruns on sides of two cabinets and spots on the window. Also did not dispose of old wood and gutter they had replaced. In their defense it was dark and maybe they missed seeing these things. But otherwise we are pleased with their work."

"Sorry, looks like this review got stuck in draft mode for quite a while. But the good thing about that is everyone gets to read a review with an update 1.5 years later on the quality of the work completed! In late 2020 I had recently moved into my new home and the gas water heater wasn't working properly. It was leaky and at least needed the pressure relief valve replaced, but the tank was well past it's expected lifetime. The techs were very helpful, kind and knowledgeable. The valve replacement wasn't going to work because repairing the tank could damage it further, so the tank was replaced instead. The price was very reasonable and installation was done really well. They did a great job with cleanup too! One and a half years later and the tank has had zero issues! I would definitely recommend them for heavy jobs like this or more simple ones around the house. Thank you very much!"

"I had 100 year old columns that were rotting from ant damage. I had new columns custom made, and hired MA Design to remove the old ones and install the new ones. John L. the foreman, was friendly, helpful and competent as was the team that assisted. The job was not an easy one, as the new columns were difficult to match. I was pleased with the final result."

Install Garbage Disposal FAQs, 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.

On average, it takes one to four hours for a professional to install a garbage disposal. This includes removing the old unit, taking necessary measurements for positioning, removing and fitting new pipes, and installing the brand-new disposal system. If there are unforeseen issues, such as accessibility concerns, the process takes longer.

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.

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.

You may be able to install a garbage disposal on your own, especially if you're handy or have some experience with plumbing. However, if you have any concerns or want to make absolutely sure that the connections are installed correctly, you may be better off hiring a local garbage disposal installer to do the job.
