"Dan arrived early, agreed with my diagnosis of the problem with the first toilet (worn washer) but explained why replacement of the innards would probably be a better, longer lasting solution than trying to repair the 70 year old mechanism, which is what I had suggested it needed. I agreed with his analysis, and the repair was made quickly with parts he had in his truck. While he was doing that work, he gave me some tips on how to repair the sticky bathtub drain lever, should I ever want to do that myself. I then asked for advice on a peculiar flushing behavior on the toilet in another bathroom. His description of probable causes, and the reason why replacement of the toilet was probably the best long term solution, was completely understandable. But I related my perfectly awful experience with a low volume toilet 20-plus years ago, and explained why we were looking at the 6 gallon toilet I'd scrounged to replace the worthless one. His description of their experience with the reliability of the toilet brand they recommend, and the design changes that had been made to achieve that reliability, was persuasive, and I decided to do the replacement. Dan had to go get the new toilet, but the removal and installation went very smoothly, and he was done pretty much within the original window they had predicted for the job I called them to do. All old parts were taken away, and the work areas were left perfectly clean. I thought the bill was quite reasonable for the work and advice I received. And after more than a week, the new toilet is working perfectly. I could not have asked for a better service experience, and will certainly call Burke first if I need (or even think I need) plumbing work done in the future."

James arrived on time and ready to work.  He came in and told me exactly what he was going to do.  He cleaned out the tub and then put in some kind of cleaner and then taped up the bathroom including enclosing the door with a zipper so he could run a vacuum out the window for exhaust. He took his time and was a very pleasant man to work with.  He explained everything he was doing and wanted to know if I had any questions.  It took about 5 hours but he left with it very clean and beautiful.  The bathroom looks so nice we had to go out and buy all new plumbing because the old just did not look good. I would recommend this company (James) to anyone who needs work on their bathroom.  They do a great job and it was well worth the money.

"Bill did a great job. He promptly returned emails and texts, arrived on time for three days and installed the closet systems in a high quality manner. He asked questions along the way to ensure he was installing the different pieces according to our desires. He worked diligently to complete the job in a timely manner. He charged a fair price. We are very happy with the results and would use Bill again for handyman and light remodeling projects. Highly recommended!"

"I contacted several plumbers this day and Mr. Craig was the only one that returned my call. Once I told him the problem he told me a time and a price and he was there to fix the problem. I really appreciated the fact that he was on time and very professional. I would definitely be using this company again."

Install Garbage Disposal FAQs, answered by experts

On average, a garbage disposal can last anywhere from 7 to 12 years, with many models functioning well for about 10 years. With heavy usage, a motor may last a minimum of five years, while grinding plates will wear down over time. It's generally a good idea to consider a replacement if your unit is approaching the 10-year mark. Other signs that it's time for a new disposal include frequent leaks, persistent clogs, lingering odors, lack of power, or unusual noises. If your unit is not that old, it's worth investigating if a less expensive part, like a rubber seal or a loose hose, is causing the issue.

If the cost of repairing a leaking garbage disposal is close to the cost of replacing the disposal, then fixing the unit might not make sense. When deciding if you should repair or replace your garbage disposal, consider the age of your garbage disposal, the cost of the repair, and whether your garbage disposal has had other problems recently to help you decide if the cost of repairing the leak is better than the cost of replacing the disposal.

Most garbage disposals have a reset button that can be triggered with a tool as simple and accessible as your index finger. That said, if you need to perform a more in-depth troubleshooting step, like manually moving the arms inside the unit or rotating the impeller plate, a hex wrench is the most common tool you’ll need. Most garbage disposals come with a hex wrench.

To prevent drain clogs, perform regular maintenance and cleaning. Avoid disposing of substances like grease or coffee grounds down the sink. Additionally, installing and routinely using drain strainers can help catch debris and prevent blockages from forming.

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.
