"An amazing experience for my landscape lighting. From sales to scheduling to installation... All around a terrific experience and one that we’ve become used to with Tanzer. In the past, they've installed and modified our irrigation to perfection as well. The installers didn’t make a complete mess of the property, especially when they were digging the trenches. The sod was put back nicely, which is a HUGE deal for me. And they took their shoes off to go into the basement after working in mulch, grass and dirt. If you're looking for a landscape lighting and/or irrigation professional, they're the BEST!"

"Ed and his team were excellent. Price was very reasonable for the work that was required. They were on time, explained the process as installing to let us know hot water would be turned off, etc. They went over the completed work and cleaned up. Left our garage very clean. Would recommend Orange County Mechanical. They are very professional, friendly and knowledgeable."

"Tom and Matt arrived in a timely fashion, completed the work efficiently, and cleaned up once the job was done. They went above and beyond to ensure the install was done well and were professional in every way. We are very happy with the services provided and fully intend to use them again in the future. Thanks so much!"

"The owner, Frank, was excellent and professional. Also his guys were very efficient by doing the job. They installed a brand new furnace and the job was immaculately done. they came to do the job when promised and finished in a timely fashion. The owner, himself, stayed at the job site after installation to make sure the equipment function good. they also call back after certain time to make sure that everything was good with the system. This is a company that do the job and do not disappear. They care about their customers. I recommend them and will keep using them."

"Mark did a fantastic job of installing the new dishwasher. I'm in a 70-year-old building, with 35-year-old kitchen counters. Getting the dishwasher to fit into the space and run properly required a lot of imagination, and Mark figured it out. He's a professional and his work is excellent. While he was working on the dishwasher, he also upgraded some of the kitchen plumbing, so now we're in great shape. He's a real professional!"

"Although there was a delay of 2 weeks in getting started, once begun, Patrick and his assistant DJ worked non stop to complete the job.  They installed shelving, moved 2 electrical outlets, phone jack and repaired and painted the wall.  Their workmanship was precise and very professional. |In addition, both men were pleasant, courteous and helpful. In short, they did and excellent job and I'd be happy to have them do work for me again."

"Aziz came and provided a reasonable estimate and  was able to start within a few days. He purchased all the supplies and gave me the receipts for reimbursements. He keeps a tight ship with his crew and hires people he can trust which is key to ensuring continuity and completion of a job. He is proactive in making sure everything is in tip top shape and gives blunt orders to his employees if they do not pay attention to detail. He has good oversight of his crew and did a great job fixing the mishaps the last guy left behind. I will be using him for my upcoming projects."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

The main issue with garbage disposals is clogging. This can mean a clogging of the pipes that expel the food along with water, or a clogging of the mechanical parts themselves. The problem lies in the solution because you can’t easily see clogs if they’re inside the system, and reaching in to dislodge stuck items is a risky proposal. Call a pro and ask what they would do, but if you can’t see the clog easily, and running the unit won’t free it, you need to let a professional handle the fix. 

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 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.

On average, it takes one to four hours for a professional to install a garbage disposal. This includes removing the old unit, taking necessary measurements for positioning, removing and fitting new pipes, and installing the brand-new disposal system. If there are unforeseen issues, such as accessibility concerns, the process takes longer.

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.
