"Turns out the filter to the drain field was clogged with hair, so the sewage was backing up. They recommend the filter be cleaned every year or two to prevent a reoccurrence. They offer this service, too. while they were here I had them pump the septic, although he advised I could wait a few years before it really needed it. He also had me run a lot of water through the drain pipes to flush out any backed up sewage. 
They were helpful and informative, unlike many contracted services (in other states) I have dealt with.

"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."

"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."

"We were extremely pleased with the presentation and how everything was explained in detail by Tom and Larry. The day of installation they arrived exactly on time. Matt Jones and Eddie Batista came out to put in the new system. Matt is absolutely awesome. They ran into a couple of problems with trying to fit the new system in where the old one was but Matt totally figured it out and when they finished everything looked great and worked great. They were helpful in explaining how the new system worked. We really appreciate their hard work.

"Sales personnel helpful, not too pushy. Installers prompt, pleasant. Left everything neat and clean. Great job on bathrooms. However, I had tile floors installed in both bathrooms. Installer obviously did not know how to install tile floors. Floors not finished under cabinets. (Out of sight, out of mind?) Tile not even, not level. Grout too low. One bathroom regrouted within a week. It has been one year this month and bathroom #2 is in desperate need of regrouting. Pieces of grout fell out within the first month or so. I would highly recommend them for bathroom renovations. Surrounds are very easy to clean/maintain. Cabinets are nice. Workmanship was excellent (except floors). If having a tile floor installed, be sure to ask for someone with tile experience and be sure to actually watch the entire floor installation."

"I called on Craftsman Direct for help with a rescued kitten! She always wants to be up high, so I needed to find some safe ways for her to do that. I called Craftsman Direct right smack in the middle of the Christmas/New Year holidays to install some shelving on my walls. Lee responded to me immediately and came out to do a free estimate shortly thereafter. Lee was very patient with me, as I wasn?t exactly sure what I needed. As an avid animal lover, he understood my kitty?s wants perfectly, and as important, he understood how the shelves needed to be installed to ensure their stability.
I received my detailed quote the next day, which incorporated necessary items I had not thought to ask for--and received a wonderful holiday surprise: Lee told me he would donate all the profits from my shelving project to Second Chance Pet Adoptions?a rescue organization he has long supported.
After I approved the quote, his craftsman Ed adjusted his schedule to come out to my home over the New Year holiday to complete the project. This holiday scheduling was a huge benefit for me! Ed did a wonderful job. He rolled with the punches when I discovered the shelf brackets originally quoted weren?t going to work and helped me pick new brackets?even though the new brackets required more painting on his part. He hung the shelving exactly as I requested. Of great importance to me, I had 100% confidence in Ed and felt comfortable leaving him at home with my kittens while I ran an errand. I knew he would ensure their safety and would not let them get outside.
Based on my experience with Craftsman Direct, I have called them back to install additional shelves for both my kitties to enjoy!"

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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.

These appliances certainly increase the number of things allowed down the drain, but they’re not foolproof. There are several items you shouldn’t put in your garbage disposal, according to manufacturers and technicians. Don’t put coffee grounds down the drain. The same goes for eggshells, potato peels, hard foods, onion skins, and any dry, expandable food. Most importantly, never put grease or oils down the drain.

Your garbage disposal will only affect the health of your septic tank if you’re using it too frequently, or filling it with organic waste that doesn’t fully break down. If the tank fills up with too many solids, the bacteria won’t have enough time to consume it before more is added, which can lead to an overflow in the drain field. Your tank will need to be pumped more frequently with excessive or improper garbage disposal use.

The main issue with garbage disposals is clogging. This can mean a clogging of the pipes that expel the food along with water, or a clogging of the mechanical parts themselves. The problem lies in the solution because you can’t easily see clogs if they’re inside the system, and reaching in to dislodge stuck items is a risky proposal. Call a pro and ask what they would do, but if you can’t see the clog easily, and running the unit won’t free it, you need to let a professional handle the fix. 

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.
