"I left a message on Bob's phone for an estimate.  He responded within hours.  We discussed in detail over the phone the repairs I was needing.  He gave me a verbal estimate on the phone and scheduled an appointment to see the work and schedule the job date.  He was able to visit my home the next week and after seeing the job, he confirmed the amount discussed over the phone.  He got to work the next day, and even fit in the installation of a garbage disposal that broke the night before he arrived.  He did a fabulous job!  I had an invoice in the mail the following Monday, which was right on target and budget as agreed.  I will definately use Bob Goodman of Lighthouse Handyman in the future.

"It went very well.  The company called back with 24 hours to schedule an appointment and was able to come at a time that fit my schedule at the last minute.  The service tech was nice, on time and helpful.  He changed out the drain during the tub reglazing even though he was not required to do so.  Only recommendation would be to use their own trash bags vs. my bathroom trash bin as it left dust and film in it.  Other than that the experience was great."

"Sean arrived at 8:00 a.m. ready to work.  He gave us a short explanation of the process and explained that it would take most of the day and we would need to let the surface cure for 48 hours after he was finished.   He worked at a steady pace, was careful to cover everything so that there was no mess and no mistakes.  Our tub went from a real mess to a beautiful, easy to clean surface.  We would definitely call The Tub Company again and recommend them highly. 
Do plan to be away from the house for a couple of days as the odor from the chemicals is overwhelming.

"We purchased the big deal for two hours of handyman service and were completely satisfied. Bill was really knowledgeable and professional. When looking at our garbage disposal, he realized the water pressure from the kitchen faucet was bad and took it apart to fix it. I had no idea how bad it was! Then we had some old built-in bookshelves we wanted removed. Bill was extremely careful dismantling the shelves, so there was no damage to the walls or cabinetry below. We would definitely use A Good Guy again in the future!

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.

The two main negatives of garbage disposals are they are a safety hazard in homes with children, and they frequently encounter blockage issues. While they might be annoying to fix and monitor, garbage disposals can significantly lower your trash use and are a great way to dispose of organic waste. While there are negatives, the vast majority of homeowners acknowledge the positives are enough to install a disposal in their home. 

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. 

Once you have your garbage disposal disconnected, you can remove the mounting bracket by unscrewing the bolts that are holding the bracket. You can back them out just enough to pop off the snap ring, which prevents the bottom portion of the bracket from disconnecting from the top when you unscrew the bolts. Use a regular screwdriver to pop off the snap ring, and the rest of the components should fall off by themselves.

No, you do not need a garbage disposal to have a dishwasher. A dishwasher will work without one, and while it's rare to see a home with a dishwasher that doesn't have a disposal, it is possible. The two appliances pair well and are often installed together because a disposal simplifies meal cleanup.

However, your dishwasher should not be used as a replacement for a garbage disposal. Subjecting it to continuous food leftovers can lead to major clogs. If you choose not to install a garbage disposal, you should thoroughly rinse your plates or scrape excess food into the trash or a compost pile before loading them into the dishwasher to prevent plumbing issues.
