"Billy, from Devlin's specializing in finding leaks! We had the contractor and the plumbing service that installed our master bathroom come and find a leak that was affecting our main floor guest room below.  After 1 week, removing ceiling dry wall and $1,300 later, they couldn't find the leak.  When I called Devlin, they sent Billy because he knows his way around leaks.  Billy took a look around for about 5mins and figured it out  - he is the best!!!  Professionally sealed the area and done in about 30mins, clean and professional."

"We have a one-year home warranty (we purchased our house within the past year) and when we had plumbing issues one Sunday afternoon (water started flowing out of the toilet and onto the floor) our warranty company contracted with Triangle Plumbing and Backflow to come address the issue. Even though it was one a Sunday, Eric showed up within a few hours and immediately go to work resolving the issue. Unlike some of the negative reviews below (once I knew what company was coming I researched them and started to get worried) Eric was very clear about the issues and potential costs. He let us know that if he could fix it outside the house, it would be covered by our warranty but that if he had to remove a toilet to access the blockage, the warranty would not cover it and he broke down the costs for us. Despite my wife nor I knowing where the access point was closest to the house, Eric got out a shovel and estimated where it would be and started digging under some shrubbery to find the access point. As it was already past 8:00 on a Sunday night and the temperature was just over freezing, he could have said he'd come back another day or immediately moved to the more expensive approach from reaching the plumbing inside the house. Eric clearly knew what he was doing because he found the access point within minutes (it had been buried about 8" by the previous owner) and promptly resolved the issue, explaining how it happened and helping us avoid it in the future. We found Eric to be prompt, courteous, and willing to go the extra mile/step to help us. While we had never used this company before (or known them) we will be using them in the future.
Unrelated to this, while talking to Eric we learned of a flat-fee plumbing inspection they complete to help with preventive issues in your home (I think Angie's List has a coupon for it). I wish we had known about that prior to purchasing our home as we could have utilized them during the home inspection and saved us several hundred dollars in plumbing repairs that the inspector did not catch. Based upon Eric's professionalism and experience, for anyone purchasing a home, I would recommend they use this service as part of their inspection process - I know I wish we had (it would not have caught the issue we had but it would have caught several others that we had once we started living in the home).

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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. 

It’s one thing that helps, alongside vinegar and baking soda. Ice acts as an exfoliant, helping to lift off any bits of food stuck on the disposal blades.

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. 

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.

If your garbage disposal powers up and you can hear it hum, but the arms inside aren’t moving, the problem might be a stubborn clog, a build-up of grease, or a jam of the impeller plate. To troubleshoot these, ensure your unit is off and disconnected from its power source before checking inside the drain or attempting to manually rotate the impeller arms or plate from the underside of the unit. A hex wrench can help.
