"Just had this done in Feb 2019. Turns out vendor who I used then didn't clean any of the solid waste from cesspool . He only drained fluids. Had same overflow problem again this weekend and was pretty mad. Call Mid Suffolk and was greeted very professionally and kindly on phone by Christine on Saturday night Sept 14th 2019. Was told her husband Bob would show up Sunday morning. He did at 11am and provided much need excellent service and advice. Completely serviced both pools for a reasonable price. Was neat and would call again without any second thought."

"We priced out dumpsters and initially, the dumpsters looked like the way to go but upon reading the fine print, we realized they would have cost more than a bullbag. Each dumpster was about $150-$200 BUT each ONLY included up to 1 ton of material, and the companies would charge me an additional $85/ton over it. The bullbag price was NOT based on weight but rather just filling the bag to the top of the bag. The bullbag not only saved me money, but the people were nice to deal with, but everything they said, they actually did. We have a house on the Cape and we will use them there too in March. We were told up front that there would be an additional $75 fee because of the location, but it is STILL cheaper and easier than a metal dumpster."

"John was right on time, knew his business, did the install in a timely fashion, and the price quoted over the phone was the price we paid. Very happy with the work performed and would recommend and use again."

"I cannot say enough good things about Dan Bolger and Island Homecraft. Dan is a fantastic project manager who brought in a great team of talented professionals. Everyone came on time and did a wonderful job, quickly, and each was pleasant, patient, and great to work with. Everyone cleaned up at the end of each day and did their best to minimize the inconvenience to our daughter. My husband and I were traveling from New Jersey to help our daughter. Dan did an amazing job in scheduling the crew and subcontractors to make it easy for us to manage our travel and to minimize the time that our daughter was unable to use her space. (I should note that we helped by having all decisions made and all materials ready – this is very important, we know.) The project required a new glass slider, which Kevin and Steve managed to fit into a very tight rough opening (another contractor had been gun-shy to attempt this). It also involved tile work, plumbing, electrical work, and installation of a large amount of cabinets, as well as all new appliances. The cabinets required finished tops since these are visible from the stairs. Kevin completed these beautifully, along with the crown moldings, baseboard trim, and special raised panels on the peninsula. Dan recommended finished under surfaces for the cabinets with LED light strips. These provided a beautiful, sleek look, and we were glad we took his advice. This was not our first rodeo, so with such a big project, we expected a few glitches. Dan and his people took these in their stride and quickly figured out the work arounds, even when it meant extra time and work for them. For instance, when the bookcase above one base cabinet turned out to be too short to quite reach the granite counter, Larry used scraps of trim left from other parts of the kitchen to craft a bottom molding that covers the gap and makes the bookcase look like a piece of fine furniture. Dan also recommended Gary Epstein and his business, 1-800-Paint-Job of Long Island, to paint the rooms when the construction was completed. Gary and his crew did a wonderful job, and we are grateful for the recommendation. Please see my separate review of Gary’s business for details and photos. We have worked with a number of contractors over the years, and Dan is up there in lights. Our daughter’s friend said the pictures do not do justice, and she is right. Many thanks to Dan’s crew, Kevin, Steve, and Larry, for the fine work they did and their courteous, considerate attitude. We look forward to working with Island Homecraft for the additional remodeling still needed at this home. We also want to thank Dan’s subcontractors for their outstanding work: • Gabco Demo arrived early the first morning and had the kitchen stripped in a couple of hours. They moved the old fridge to the living room for temporary use, were careful moving discards and debris out through the living room, and were able to get all the old linoleum tile up from the floor, even the parts stuck on especially tight. They took everything away. • Two Brothers Ceramic Tile arrived very early each day, completed their work super fast with no mistakes, and did not waste one single piece of tile. For the kitchen backsplash, they were able to stretch the marble pencil moldings to substitute for the too-thin edge pieces we’d bought, saving time and money. The tile floors are perfectly level. • Rob Beck of Biagio Plumbing lives locally and was wonderfully available and responsive. He had our daughter’s gas stove and her fridge hooked up and ready to use less than two weeks after demo began so that she could cook while she waited for her counters and other finishes. He also came back to reverse her new front load washer and dryer when we realized the doors banged into each other. Please see my separate review of Biaggio Plumbing. • Shamus, George, and their apprentice, Frank, from Sure Line Electric did a super job installing under cabinet LEDs, relocating switches, outlets, and a security sensor, replacing the porch light and a ceiling light, installing a new larger electrical box and electric for the pump for the new basement slop sink, and trouble-shooting and activating several outlets that didn’t work since the home was built. George saved a good deal of money by assuring us that the electrical panel did not require upgrading to 200 amps (as another contractor had said). He advised us instead to install a larger panel box with more outlets, eliminating the existing crowding and allowing space for the slop sink pump."

"The joe and allen were polite and clearly explained what caused the leak before starting. He gave us the exact price upfront, fixed the pipe quickly, and left the workspace completely clean. Highly recommend them for any home plumbing problems and will call SAFEHAVEN HOME SERVICESif needed in the future."

"My plumber, Mark, was extremely professional, communicative, and did excellent work. He went out of his way to work around my schedule and explain every step of the process to me. The new install was done quickly and was certainly done better than whoever installed the last one. I would absolutely recommend MFS for anyone looking for a plumber."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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.

There are many maintenance and repair issues that lead to a malfunctioning garbage disposal. Regular clogs place wear and tear on the motors, leading to an eventual shutdown. Electrical issues at the breaker, wall outlet, or disposal itself can fry the unit. The most common cause is simply a worn-down motor. These motors can only handle so much use before powering down for good. 

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.

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.

Garbage disposals are durable appliances that usually last at least eight years as long as you clean and maintain them. It’s relatively rare for a garbage disposal to break on its own, as most malfunctions happen due to user errors, like overstuffing the grinding compartment or damaging the blades by trying to dispose of metal or bone. Eventually, cracks or leaks could develop in the unit, which requires a full replacement.
