The company gave us a completive quote and was able to install the replacement hot water heater the next day. The tech showed up in the morning and did a nice job installing the replacement hot water heater. I would use the company again.

Mark and his installers were very professional. Communication was fantastic. The quality of the cabinet doors was excellent and Mark was able to match our box style and color exactly. Refacing cost was much less expensive than replacing the total cabinet boxes and a lot less of a remodeling...

TJ Radom thoroughly explained the options that applied to my house. They laid down drop clothes over the carpet to keep it clean. Quickly install the system. And they left the areas of their work cleaner than they found them. Great experience

Dishwasher Installation questions, answered by experts

Descaling a dishwasher is important if you want to keep it working as efficiently and effectively as possible. Limescale builds up quickly in dishwashers that are used regularly, especially in areas with hard tap water. You need to descale your dishwasher regularly to ensure that your dishes come out clean.

Leaks, poor drainage, failure to start, water not heating, and excessive noise frequently require service.

Some common signs you have a dirty dishwasher filter are:

Food sticking to your dishes even after a thorough wash cycle
Odor coming from your dishwasher
Stains left on dishes and utensils
Water pooling in your dishwasher
Food stuck to parts of the dishwasher, like the racks, walls, or sprayer arm

Dishwashers should be cleaned a minimum of once every 3 months, but really it should be done monthly. This is to prevent germ buildup and will help keep your machine running smoothly. Dishwasher maintenance isn’t too difficult, you’ll simply clean the filter, wipe down the spray arms with vinegar or rubbing alcohol, and run the cycle on empty. If there is any debris, you can remove it with a small metal pick. Do not use wood as the tip can break off inside the machine.

The average cost to repair a dishwasher that’s leaking is $200, but your total will depend on the underlying problem. Having a professional replace a faulty door gasket or a gasket in a supply line could cost as little as $50, while replacing a leaking dishwasher pump could total as much as $600.
