"In 2020....I had ACE Concrete to come to my residence and widen my driveway. The owner, David Stallings arrived and was very abrasive, however, that didn't deter me from using him because everyone doesn't have to have a sunny disposition, however, Great Customer service doesn't hurt. He was very dismissive in his communication. Ironically, he observed a political flag next to my property and it seems that he automatically assumed that I was complicit with my neighbor's political views (and I was), his attitude got even worse. His work was average, therefore, I paid him and after payment, I noticed him washing his tools and emptying the remnants of the concrete that he had used for my job onto my grass. I requested that he not do so, he stopped advising that it would not hurt my grass. I went back inside and then through my window, I observed him leaving my residence. I went outside to see that he had finished dumping the excess of concrete into my grass. I took his word, and did not attempt to irrigate the spot that he had dumped that waste. The next morning I awoke to see that the mixture had hardened and I had to dig the concrete waste up from where Stallings had dumped, totally reseeding the grass, it took months for that spot which was bald to grow back. My opinion is that Stallings saw the melanin on my skin and observed the political sign of my neighbor let his own prejudice skew his judgment, and instead of being a professional, he committed an egregious act as destroying a part of yard by dumping concrete waste onto my grass, which was totally uncalled for because I did nothing or said anything to him to even provoke him to do what he did. Stallings is unprofessional and should not be in business and if I had the time and extra money for an attorney, I would have sued him civilly for his egregious act. Stallings if you are in business...you are in business for EVERYONE and not just a select few...the color that should matter for any entrepreneur. If you all ask, WHY it took me so long to report him, well, I actually lost information and JUST found his information to report him!"

Concrete Disposal questions, answered by experts

Generally speaking, it’s absolutely worth it to repair a garbage disposal, so long as it’s eight years old or younger. Once you pass that eight-year threshold, it depends on the issue. If it’s a simple jam and the core components remain unaffected, call a local plumber for a quick repair. If it seems like the motor is wearing down, spring for a replacement unit. 

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.

Soil is just one of the items you shouldn't put down a garbage disposal. Garbage disposals are only meant for soft, non-fibrous foods. Large amounts of topsoil, dirt, or rocks will damage the blades of your garbage disposal or clog the pipes. If a small amount of dirt goes down the drain as you repot a plant, you shouldn't have to worry, but never dump a whole pot of soil in the sink for fast disposal.

If the cost of repairing a leaking garbage disposal is close to the cost of replacing the disposal, then fixing the unit might not make sense. When deciding if you should repair or replace your garbage disposal, consider the age of your garbage disposal, the cost of the repair, and whether your garbage disposal has had other problems recently to help you decide if the cost of repairing the leak is better than the cost of replacing the disposal.

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.
