Customers say: True professional

"The company owner (Lal) arrived within the time range original specified to clear (snake) a clogged kitchen sink drain. He cleaned up the cabinetry from any grime extracted from piping, and answered a few general questions of mine regarding plumbing (I discovered the drain clog while trying to replace an old (and clogged) garbage disposal with regular PVC piping), as I thought the blog was only in the disposal unit. Lal called at 7AM the day after I placed the HomeAdvisor request and accepted his request, which I did the evening before sometime around 9-10 PM. This was perfect, as am an early riser. For reference, Lal charged $250 for cleaning the drain. For my last clogged drain (bathroom tub), Hughes Mechanical charged me $275 to snake it. Len the Plumber quoted me $600-something for snaking the tub drain. Lal says he worked for Len the Plumber and Roto-Rooter in the past, showing me a $600-something charge for snaking from a Roto-Rooter price booklet (The Len the Plumber rep for the tub clog had a similar booklet which he used to explain his price when I balked). Lal advised me to pay him to replace the older garbage disposal with a new disposal rather than pipe as I had originally intended. He quoted me $550 to install a 1/2 Horsepower Badger 500 Continuous Feed Disposer, and when I balked, offered to reduce to $450. I declined and just completed the pipe installation myself."

"Sterling was the best!!! He came on short notice and during the middle of a snow storm. He even shoveled our driveway so he could service us. He fixed our problem and then tripled checked to make sure everything ran smoothly. He also fixed our garbage disposal which was a bonus as that was a separate issue. He was professional courteous and very patient with us explaining every single detail of the job he had to perform. I would highly recommend him for services and would definately use him again in the future. Sterling was a GOD send In helping us get our draining problem fixedð"

"Great experience with Tawn from Day & Night Plumber! He arrived on time, wore a mask, was friendly and professional, and quickly replaced our broken garbage disposal. Day & Night Plumber was even offering a fantastic deal on garbage disposal replacement so Tawn came prepared with the new disposal and the cost was far less than I had anticipated. I'm happy with the work and plan to use the company again."

"I hired this company as the previous company scheduled to install my garbage disposal were a no-show. I called this company at 4:30pm. James arrived an hour later. By 6pm, he completed the job. A plumber is pricey but the quality of the work is top notch. I'd be elated to hire this company again."

"Two gentlemen showed up- ON TIME and both had masks on and were very polite. Per my request, they texted when they were close so I could get my large dog settled. They took out the old garbage disposal and installed new one. The space under my sink is very tight, so it was not an easy job! They completed the job- did not leave any trash behind. Very clean and very respectful."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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.

Garbage disposals can be considered bad for the environment due to their electricity usage, but good for the environment because they reduce the food waste sent to landfills. If everyone used a garbage disposal, it would tax the wastewater treatment facilities in that region, but if we had to choose one of the options, we’d say they are a net positive on the environment when used correctly. 

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.

In some cases, it’s more cost-effective in the long run to replace a garbage disposal, but it depends on the specific issue you’re having and the age of your disposal. You should ask a garbage disposal repair tech for a quote to repair your appliance and then see if it would be more worthwhile to replace it. Additionally, garbage disposals last for around 15 years, so if you know your appliance is reaching that age, it’s likely better to pay for a new garbage disposal rather than sink money into repairs.

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.
