"My well pump was having trouble keeping up with my water demand. I didn't know if the well had gone dry or the pump had failed. I placed the service call Friday evening of Labor Day weekend and told the customer service person that I could wait for the repair until after the holiday. Tuesday morning I received a call from the Water Specialist and was told a technician would be out by mid-day.
He arrived before noon and quickly determined that the pump had failed and the water level in the well was just fine.
Since I use my well water for my water-source heat pumps, it requires a larger than normal size pump. They didn't have one in stock, but Ray Sparrow, the owner, procured one by early afternoon allowing the technician to keep working on removing the old pump, installing the new pump wire, and removing the old plumbing. Everything was back together and up and running by that evening.
All the work was very neat and the technician wet-vacuumed up any water spilled in the process. I have been doing business with The Water Specialist for almost 30 years. The charges are not cheap, but you won't get better knowledgeable service. Their work and materials is alway top-notch and they are prompt and courteous.

"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.

"Keith punctual and professional. He explained what caused the clog and how to remove the hair from the drain. Then he explained that Drano was not helping the problem and only made this worst. My clogged issue was never going away with Drano. This was good information. He was told me what to use if the drain became clogged again. I was very grateful that he took the time to explain everything and gave advise as to what would unclog the drain,if another clog happened. I will definitely call Kevin again for any plumbing issues I may have in the future. Thank you!!"

"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

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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.

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. 

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.

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.

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.
