"Joe connected my washer and dryer from the basement to the upstairs room. Since I didn't have my new dryer yet, he had to come back on another day to install the exhaust vent. He did a great job and didn't overcharge me like many plumbers do. I definitely will call him back for more jobs in the future."

"Chris the office manager was friendly and kept us updated regarding when the plumber would arrive. Sean the plumber arrived on time and completed the work. He explained why the disposal needed to be replaced and showed me how the new unit worked. We were happy with the service and would use them again ."

On Friday, Aug. 1st,I noticed that my garbage disposal was leaking when I turned the water on.  I called Ed and he said he was going on vacation and one of his associates would be able to get to me on Monday.  I was disappointed because I was having guests over on Sat. and it was going to be difficult to prepare things with a leaking sink.


To my great surprise and relief, I rec'd a call from Ed Sat. morning asking me if I'd like him to come out and I, of course, said yes.  He was at my house 1/2 hour later and installed a garbage disposal that we purchased at Home Depot. The installation got a little more involved because the pipe was badly corroded and also needed to be replaced.


I greatly appreciated the fact that he squeezed in my job before departing for his vacation.


We've used him in the past for other jobs at our house and at my mother-in-law's house and I would highly recommend him.

"Everyone from the sales person to the installers was great to work with. The salesman recommended a color after we narrowed it down to two colors, and we are happy with the recommendation. The installation went smoothly, and we had no issues with it. The plumber they used for the faucet was great as well. If we were staying in the house we're in, we would use them again for our bathroom counters."

"The plumber arrived at the specified time and went right to work diagnosing the problem,  He diagnosed the problem quickley and snaked out the drain.  Unfortunately, I had an additional problem with clogging shotly after the tech left & called lthe office.  They arranged for another tech to come out the next day and he found & fixed the left over problem within an  hour.  I would  definitely use McHales again & recommend them to anyone looking for a plumber.

Both techs left the bathroom clean (I scrubbed the toilet & shower after they left & it looks great!)"

The furnace crew took  2 full days and the insulation crew took 3 full days.

These are 2 emails I sent to the company:

1/.  Just wanted to convey to you that my wife and I were deeply impressed by the 2 crews that were assigned to our upgrades. The furnace crew; Brian, Todd, and Tony had the additional task of disassembling a old heater into pieces small enough to get it out through an interior stairwell. They did an excellent job and left the job site spotless. The insulation crew; Todd, Doug, and Jeremy were presented with many challenges in attempting to meet the contract specifications and always came up with innovative ideas to overcome 19th century construction techniques. These craftsmen also did an excellent job and left the job site spotless. My wife commented that they always seemed to be working and never took a break. It was a pleasure having them all work on our house.

2/.  In the last two days I had 4 inspectors for the permits come out and we passed all the final inspections.  The Fire, Plumbing, and Electrical Inspectors for the furnace all were impressed with the installation. They particularly liked the manner in which Brian hung and braced the intake and exhaust pipes. They all said the install was neat, clean, tight, well laid out.  The Building Inspector was impressed with neat and tidy job done by the Todd and the insulation crew.  Please thank them for an excellent job.

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

The two main negatives of garbage disposals are they are a safety hazard in homes with children, and they frequently encounter blockage issues. While they might be annoying to fix and monitor, garbage disposals can significantly lower your trash use and are a great way to dispose of organic waste. While there are negatives, the vast majority of homeowners acknowledge the positives are enough to install a disposal in their home. 

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.

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.

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.
