"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."

"I was provided a two hour window to expect the plumber.  He called 20 minutes prior to the appointment window to let me know when to expect him.  He was able to diagnose and fix the problem with my garbage disposal in about an hour.  He provided tips on maintenance to prevent future clogs.  He then tightened a toilet upstairs that had a leak around the base.  The cost was less than I expected and he completed the repairs quickly.  It has been over a week since the repairs were done and so far everything is draining without a problem and there is no leak at the base of the toilet.

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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.

While unplugging your garbage disposal and plugging it back in may help, most units have an actual reset button, a bright red switch found on the underside of your unit. If your garbage disposal needs resetting, you may notice this button sticking out about a quarter of an inch from the surface of the unit, with which it’s usually flush. Simply depress this reset button to reset the unit, and then test to ensure it’s working about 10 minutes later.

As with many appliances, proper maintenance is key to maximizing your garbage disposal’s life span. If everyone in your household is on board with proper care and maintenance, like running water while operating the disposal, you should get plenty of years out of your unit. Avoid putting the wrong food items down the disposal, including pasta, rice, bread, and more.

While the drain connection for a garbage disposal is nearly universal and fits standard sink drain holes of 3 1/2 to 4 inches, the size of the disposal unit itself is not. You must have enough space in the cabinet underneath your sink to accommodate the disposal's housing. A larger model may not fit in a compact cabinet or if the existing plumbing is arranged in an unusual way. Before buying a new garbage disposal, measure the available space under your sink. If you are replacing an old unit, it's often easiest to choose a new model of a similar size.

These appliances do unscrew, but you need to disconnect everything properly when you replace your garbage disposal. Make sure you shut the power off to the area first and check that it’s off with a voltage detector. Disconnect the main drain line and P-trap, and then disconnect the dishwasher drain line if you have one connected. You can then unscrew your garbage disposal using a disposal wrench. Just make sure you disconnect the electrical lines before removing your appliance.
