"The Dun Rite technician, Sterling Collick, performed the sink drain cleaning I requested with great skill and professionalism. The project was completed in less than an hour, and the bathroom was cleared of all trace of plumbing work. The sink is now operating as good as new."

"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."

"I forgot to do this review but am glad I did because I am two years out having waterproofing services by this company. The drain and sump pump recommended by Robert Ellis is absolutely worth it. I no longer am anxious about weather forecasts because of the work done. Robert evaluated my home, gave me options and soft recommendations then allowed me space to make the best long term decision. Completely satisfied and would recommend."

"Home Systems Appliance Repair did an excellent repair on my 18 year old panel-ready 42 inch Built-In counter depth GE Profile Refrigerator. The original GE tech who looked at the leak in the freezer evaporator a year ago, told me the refrigerator was non repairable because the "vacuum pump" retrofit part it needed was no longer available. After paying his $200 visit fee for a 2 minute consultation, he offered me a discount on a new GE refrigerator to fit which had not been built yet. Fast forward to now, GE does have 42 inch built-in counter depth Monogram side-by-side for $12,000 and $2,000 of Kraftmaid panels. Home Systems Appliance Repair cost me $400 to identify and fix a broken heat transfer tab in the freezer evaporator unit. I saved $15,000 - - not bad for paying Appliance Repair for a 2 hour job. They seriously looked and found the problem. I highly recommend Manny (the tech who did the work), and Home Systems Appliance Repair. Susan"

"We were very happy with the response and service. Frank & Sam came same-day to diagnose our problem. They diagnosed & cleared a clog in the drain line and cleaned our sump basin to remove the odor. Once the clog was cleared, they also ran the drain camera throughout the lines under the house to check the integrity of the pipes. They were professional, personable, and efficient. They cleaned up thoroughly after they were finished. We'd definitely hire them again."

"I had compiled a list of projects we were considering having done to improve our home which was built in 1986.  After doing a great deal of research, we decided on Perryhall Remodeling, based on the number of positive reviews reported on Angie's List.  I contacted the Company by phone and explained a little bit about what improvements we were looking to have done to our 28 year old home and asked that the owner return the call.  I received a call back from Gary Howard, Sr., the owner of the company, within 24 hours and we arranged a meeting at our home two days later.  Gary Howard, Sr. and his brother Tim Howard arrived on time and we got down to business.  Gary, Sr and Tim were very friendly and professional as we discussed the work we were considering.  Gary and I walked through the inside and outside of the house as I explained what we needed.  Gary was very attentive, and took notes and asked questions and made professional suggestions as we walked.  The most urgent projects included replacing 3 skylights which had been leaking for sometime and repair to the surrounding drywall, which had been severely damaged.  We needed two new patio doors along with the restoration of two decks, plus power washing of the entire house.  I wanted floor tile installed in the  powder room and master bath.  I also wanted the gutters in the front and back of the house cleaned out and gutter guards installed throughout.  I needed something done with the downspout next to the porch that was allowing water to damage the side of the porch, plus the replacement of 3 ceiling fans, the weatherproofing of the front door and the shaving of the bottom of an interior door that was scraping the floor plus replacing the door bell ringer. 
We agreed on a price, and I signed off on a written contract. 
Gary, Sr. was worried about the weather and wanted to get started on the outside work as soon as possible. I, of course, agreed and the skylight project started within a week.  Gary, Tim and the work crew arrived bright and early on the agreed upon date to install the skylights and service the roof.   Gary had upgraded the skylights he purchased for us without additional charge.   He was very concerned that we never experience the water leakage we had experienced with the old skylights.
(I found a repeat of this kind of thoughtfulness throughout our working relationship.  Just a few examples would include the following:  When two pieces of damaged siding previously hidden behind the old deck boards, was now revealed, Gary, Sr. replaced the siding with undamaged pieces of siding we had saved, at no charge.  He had his team install three ceiling fans for us at no charge.  He purchased and installed a door bell ringer at no charge and Gary, Jr. replaced our flood lights for us at no charge). 
Now back to the skylight project:  The 3 Skylights were installed without a problem and they looked amazing from the street and from inside the house.  No more leaks!!!   At the same time that the Skylight were being installed, Gary and his son, Gary, Jr., walked the entire roof and found there were some imperfections in the previous re-construction of the chimney.  They recommended a reconstruct upgrade to the chimney with new plywood and aluminum.  I agreed to the improvements, because we had problems in the past with water leakage from that chimney.  Since this remodel of the chimney, I have not had any further problems with water leakage.
Gary, Jr. also worked on the redirecting of the downspout away from the front porch. This downspout was directing rain water too close to the house which resulted in an incredible amount of damage to the side of the front porch.  To fix the problem, Gary, Jr. cut off the downspout just directly about the porch roof gutter, resulting in a direct feed into this gutter which eliminated direct water damage to the side of the porch.  (How simple a fix and how Genius!! - Thanks Gary, Sr. for the solution)   The damaged cement was cleaned up and new cement was pored to protect the side porch in the future.  
The next major outside project was the restoration of two (2) decks.  My husband and I had not taken the best of care of the original decks, and this resulted in a lot of damage to the wood. Gary, Sr. recommended that we forgo the power washing of these decks because of the poor condition of the deck boards.  Instead the deck boards would  be replaced with pressure treated decking and the railing be replaced with white vinyl railings.  He told us that the decks foundations appeared to be undamaged and did not need to be replaced.
A four man crew got to work with the demolition and rebuild of the two decks.  The finished decks are beautiful!  The workmanship is impressive!  I get compliments on these decks all the time.           
  Kudos to the Team!  Thank you Mike, Josh, Bill and Gary, Jr. 

Next on the project check off list was the repair to all drywall that was damaged by the water leakage from the 3 old skylights. The walls that were water damaged included the front entry foyer walls and ceiling, the 3 skylight wells including the master bathroom ceiling, front hallway ceiling and additional patching throughout.  Followed by 2 coats of paint.  Again, an excellent job!!
During this same time the entire house was power washed and the gutters and downspouts were cleaned out, in preparation for gutter guards to be installed. 
Once the gutters were cleaned, Gary Howard, Sr. and his brother Tim Howard arrived a few days later to personally install the gutter guards.  A few more leaves had to be removed from the gutters first.  Gary recommended that the gutters at the top of the house, front and back should have new white aluminum flashing installed under the roof into gutters along with new spikes in the back and front of the house before the guards were installed.  The lower gutters did not need the flashing and new spikes.  I agreed to the improvement and he did the work.  After the flashing and spikes were installed, gutter guards were installed throughout.  (Another job well done!)
(I just wanted to mention that Gary, Sr. has excellent communication skills.  He stops over at least a few times a week to touch base and review the project in progress.  He has kept us updated as to the timetable of our projects so we know what to expect.  We have appreciated this communication.)
Next up was the renovation of the Powder Room.  I had originally thought that I would like to have floor tile installed,  although I was worried about the condition of the floor.  It seemed very soft and uneven and I was worried about the tile breaking later.  Gary, Sr. and I discussed the situation and he agreed that the floor should be stabilized before the tile was installed. I decided I would also like to have the existing wallpaper removed, the walls repaired and painted and  the vanity sink and toilet replaced.  I refinished the old vanity myself and it turned out great.  Our contract was updated and the work began.  Once the sub-floor was upgraded, the floor was as solid as a rock. The "A" team worked on this project and did an another amazing job!  We love it!!
Next we're moving right along with the repair and replacement of damaged drywall in the kitchen/family room walls and ceilings plus patchwork throughout the rooms as needed.  Followed by 2 coats of paint.  We had qu"

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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.

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. 

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.

Replacing a garbage disposal costs anywhere from $150 to $950, but the average cost is somewhere around $550. There are two types of garbage disposal units, and continuous feed disposals tend to cost more than batch feed disposals. Going for an aluminum garbage disposal is also significantly cheaper than choosing a stainless steel garbage disposal. You'll also need to factor in the horsepower of the motor, labor, and the removal and disposal of your old unit.

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.
