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."

"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."

"Kap from Joseph Plumbing and Drain was great. I requested a quote Saturday morning and they came out within a few hours. We scheduled the work for Friday and they arrived on time, were friendly and professional, and did excellent work installing my new main water shut-off valve. Highly recommend."

"Very well; the garbage disposal that was already installed was a bit unusual of a configuration, so he had to do some extra work. If not for that, the total cost would have been even less. (And, after getting a couple of other quotes just for the garbage disposal, not including the necessary modifications, his total price was still a bit less.)"

"This company was prompt, professional and provided good service. Installation of the treatment tank was well managed and they were very informative. Word to those considering a treatment tank -- we found about 2 months after installation that the treatment system had over-corrected and we then had extremely alkaline water (which yes is supposed to be healthy to a degree but it wreaks havoc on your hair). My husband and I both found our hair had quickly become brittle and dry and it took a bit of discussion to figure out the only recent change was our water treatment system. I called R&G back and they re-tested and determined we now needed a water softener system. They did install and that resolved all the issues. If I had one concern it is that the company should, based on their experience, anticipate something like that and at least provide the warning in advance or return within a week and re-test your water to determine if the over-correction had occurred. It would have been better to be so informed and pro-active about addressing rather than experiencing the effects of the alkaline system and then fixing. Also, would have been helpful to be able to anticipate the additional cost. Each water treatment tank is about $1700 - so ultimately we did have to expend twice as much as originally planned in order to arrive at appropriate pH levels. They are a good, professional and knowledgeable company. Just anticipate the potential for overcorrection and ask for re-testing after install so that you can make sure your system is where you need it to be."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

There are many maintenance and repair issues that lead to a malfunctioning garbage disposal. Regular clogs place wear and tear on the motors, leading to an eventual shutdown. Electrical issues at the breaker, wall outlet, or disposal itself can fry the unit. The most common cause is simply a worn-down motor. These motors can only handle so much use before powering down for good. 

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.

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.

Garbage disposals are durable appliances that usually last at least eight years as long as you clean and maintain them. It’s relatively rare for a garbage disposal to break on its own, as most malfunctions happen due to user errors, like overstuffing the grinding compartment or damaging the blades by trying to dispose of metal or bone. Eventually, cracks or leaks could develop in the unit, which requires a full replacement. 

Soil is just one of the items you shouldn't put down a garbage disposal. Garbage disposals are only meant for soft, non-fibrous foods. Large amounts of topsoil, dirt, or rocks will damage the blades of your garbage disposal or clog the pipes. If a small amount of dirt goes down the drain as you repot a plant, you shouldn't have to worry, but never dump a whole pot of soil in the sink for fast disposal.
