"Keith was amazing. Once the initial supply line was moved and the disposal was fitted, the return line was too close to the disposal.. Keith again worked his magic and made the whole thing work. The interesting part was that he found that our plumbing was not to code before he started and he explained what the problem was and how he fixed it. He definitely deserves an A+ when it comes to explaining the process to the home owner and for his creativity and determination to make the job work."

"The guy who came was very nice, professional, and fixed the disposer without us needing a new one (so was honest and didn't try to say we need a replacement). He looked at some other things but they were not under his preview; however, gave us advice where to go to get them taken care of."

"Excellence, perfection, and quality best describes KBR Kitchen and Bath of Bethesda, Maryland. After meeting with four top (A) rated companies from Angie’s List for kitchen estimates, KBR was the only company to provide an actual (kitchen design –in 3D format), while other companies submitted worded descriptions devoid of any creatively or imagination. KBR sent kitchen designer Catherine Harvey to my home, who immediately offered functional design ideals, sketches, material guidance, and budgetary advice to support the best design. Mrs. Harvey’s knowledge of construction and materials was beyond impressive, to include her artistic design execution. As a result, Mrs. Harvey submitted a 4-page kitchen design estimate complete with a 3D design illustration, pricing, and additional sketches. The type of professional estimate you would expect after watching DYI television or the Home and Garden channel (awesome). I immediately hired KBR of Bethesda to renovate my kitchen. After accepting the estimate, I met with Mrs. Harvey at KBR Bethesda headquarters to pick out my materials and to sign the finial contract for construction. Mrs. Harvey presented four designs of top quality material within my budget (see photos) with additional material options. Next, I selected my design and then read over the contract for construction. The contract was very well written, which covered start and completion dates, a detailed construction outline, materials, and flexible dates for unforeseen emergencies. What is more, Mrs. Harvey explained my next meeting would be with project manager Adam Salniturk, who would conduct a walkthrough of the kitchen and introduce me to the construction tech. Project manager Adam Salniturk conducted a comprehensive walkthrough of my kitchen and the construction process, while introducing me to my construction tech Carlos Chicas. Mr. Chicas provided construction updates each day explaining his work and progress. As a result, the kitchen project finished ahead of schedule by 1 and a half weeks (outstanding job). KBR of Bethesda surrounds themselves with a very eclectic group of talented people. People that take pride in their work and care about customer needs. Mrs. Harvey proved to be an exceptional designer, Mr. Salniturk was a firsthand manager, and Mr. Chicas exceptionally talented in every area of construction; each demonstrated great teamwork, pride and coordination. Talent like this is hard to find in today’s home improvement climate. If you want to do good business, I highly recommend KBR Kitchen and Bath of Bethesda. (I’m hiring them back to renovate my master bathroom next year)"

"Bill Martins Flood Crew is excellent. In December, just before Christmas, my finished rec room flooded when my sump pump failed--soaked carpet, cardboard boxes, books, furniture with sewer water. I thought I would not find anybody this time of year to help me. But I called Bill Martins from Flood Crew, and he came out right away. He looked at the basement and gave me an analysis of my damage on the spot. He was wonderful. He took care of getting detailed estimates to my insurance company and then made arrangements for me with all the needed specialists. First, I wouldn't have known where to start, and second I wouldn't have had a clue whom to call. I needed crews to remove the carpet, cut out drywall all around to dry it out, check for mold, test for asbestos, and then remove everything. And, of course, fixing the sump pump, installing flooring, putting everything back, and lots of details in between. All of this obviously can't be completed in a week or even a month. My work was not the only project that busy contractors had. My situation was far more complicated than I thought it would be. Ultimately, it took four months, which I thought was very reasonable. And the result is so beautiful--no corners cut, no putting up with mediocre results, all this for the same price and time or less than others quote. Be patient. Be flexible. Talk with Bill about the results you want. Listen to suggestions. Your results will be beyond anything you thought was possible."

Install Garbage Disposal FAQs, answered by experts

If you cook a lot or have a larger household, a garbage disposal can be worth it, since it streamlines your kitchen duties and helps to keep food waste out of landfills. It helps to know the cost of garbage disposal installation before you make your decision. The average price is about $400, but you can expect to pay more for higher-end models or if you hire a pro to do the job for you.

When a dishwasher discharges its wastewater, it uses a pump to quickly move a lot of water. If anything in the drain line or the garbage disposal impedes the high volume of water, it will back up into the sink through the drain or the garbage disposal. Following regular dishwasher maintenance tips like clearing clogs, keeping them cleared, and occasionally running the disposal will eliminate the problem.

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.

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.

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.
