"Diego did excellent work originally installing our garbage disposal system. I again called Diego to install the whole house humidifier system and he did a great job with that as well. He was a pro during both visits and personally a very nice guy to deal with. He found the time to come over during the week when I was free and did the work. He not only installed what I needed but also found an existing issue and resolved that as well (much appreciated). I would highly recommend Diego to anyone who needs work done right the first time. I'll definitely refer Diego to my neighbors and friends. Thanks"

"Very positive experience with Tim and his crew. We have horrible well water, and there were time constraints due to real estate purchase. Everything was done within the specified time-frame, neat and professionally. Responsive to inquiries, and helpful in educating during the process. They offer competitive pricing, and there is no pressure. You can tell that their main goal is to provide safe water to their clientele. It has been a few months since completion, and it is nice to have peace of mind that our plumbing, fixtures, and appliances are protected by some of the best equipment on the market."

"They installed new washers in the bathtub faucets. They had to work around the management of the complex not being willing to turn the water off and on and were very gracious about the delay (over an hour of their time) that caused. | |They were late but their office also called to let us know. Very nice people to work with."

"I was in a big need for a spring deep cleaning and they were quick to response. Job was done very well and they also had a car cleaning service I didn’t know about and they were also able to clean my car on the spot. Very pleasantly surprised at the end."

"Excellent!  We were provided a contract describing the hardware and model numbers to be installed, services to be performed including removal of old HVAC units and related materials, and total cost.  Initially I was surprised that unit costs and labor costs were not enumerated.  Don't be concerned.  Using the model numbers of the components, I did on-line product and installation pricing and was satisfied with the proposal.  We set a time and date; they were extraordinarily punctual.  They completed all work in a single day (do clear all working areas and access doors beforehand).  They did an overview of operational and maintenance issues.  Left all the work areas cleaner than they were at the start and took 'garbage' with them.  As needed, I will be using them in the future for all of the services they provide."

"I was very satisfied with the installation.  The workers arrived on time, worked efficiently, and from all indications the installed product is of high quality.  The supervisor was extremely helpful with the planning and managed the job well.  He responded quickly when I notified the company a few days after the installation that some adjustment was needed on three of the sprinklers. The supervisor, workers, and the office staff that I interacted with were professional in every way.  I would not hesitate to recommend this company.   "

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
