"The representative from Modern Plumbing took pictures, explained possible sources and how to figure out the source from use. Once the source was found, described the repair and had it done in 20 minutes with a minimum of fuss. Very impressed with the detailed explanation throughout this issue. FYI, this was done via my Home Warranty, so the cost is not indicative of the actual charges."

"There was a section of vinyl caulk that was installed between the backsplash and the counter. The caulk was old and deteriorated and became dis colored and did not cure. Since the problem was caused by the initial installation, Granite Transformation should have corrected the work under warantee. In fact, they want to charge me a service call. Since they did not stand behind their work, I would not recommend them. I had to call them back to repair plumbing problems, They failed to plug in the refrigerator completely. Beautiful job, but for &7,000 they should stand behind their work

"Miller Services did an exceptional job. My unit was 18 years old and stopped working. They came out to give estimate on new unit and got old unit running to get us through until they could get new unit ordered and installed."

"EXCELLENT  prompt courteous and professional service.  Bill Graves, sales rep, is dynamic.  I appreciate his attention to detail and getting things done in a timely manner.   I called 4 companies on  Thursday for an estimate, 2 companies on Angie's A list did not bother to call back until Monday. I selected Alpine's quote  the system was installed and completed Tuesday morning.  Bill made this a "smooth transaction".  Thank you Bill with a special thanks to Laura in customer service. I am very satisfied!

"The entire trim had to be removed and replaced.  While this sounds simple the workers had to install a roof jack type scaffold due to the angle of the roof.   The trim was removed, replaced, sealed and painted.  The workers were very thorough and cleaned up as if they were never there.

"After calling around I found the price quoted by The Water Heater Experts was about $150 cheaper than their competition.  This would have normally concerned me, but I decided to go with them since they have such great reviews on Angie's list.  I am glad I did.
The new water heater was installed two days after I placed the order (as scheduled - I did NOT have an emergency situation).  The guys showed up as expected and within three hours had removed the old water heater and installed the new one.  Through the entire process they went out of their way to explain what they were doing and why they were doing it.  They took the time to show me how to change settings and pointed out a couple of things to keep an eye on with some of the existing older plumbing attached to the heater.  
Every aspect of my dealings with them was a very good experience.  These guys understand the meaning of customer service!

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.

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.

Whether it's worth repairing your garbage disposal depends on its age and the specific problem. Generally, if the unit is eight years old or younger, repair is a good option. For minor issues like a bad seal or a simple jam, a repair can be inexpensive, sometimes under $10. However, if the motor is broken (a repair that can cost $150 or more) or the unit is getting old, it's often more cost-effective to replace the entire disposal.

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.

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.
