"JBC Plumbing was great he did a fast job good job and it was worth the quoted and delivered price of $200. JBC replaced my leaky kitchen sink pipes and my broken garbage disposal in 2 hours for $200. Good work JBC! "
"The technician was great and had all the parts needed to fix the leak and was able to unjam the disposal. Was great not being coaxed into replacing pricey plumbing fixtures. Would hire again!"
"Arrived on time and was given 1/2 hour notice prior to plumber showing up. Evaluated work that needed to be done and gave me options to help reduce cost. They use flat rate pricing, so there is no surprise costs at the end. Final quote was about 40% less than other quotes we received, so I had him begin work right away since he was available. Installed all new plumbing fixtures under kitchen sink including shut off valves and drain pipes."
"I returned from a two-week vacation to find the top floor of my condo flooded and damage to the ceiling on the floor below. There was no obvious source of the leak. I called other plumbers, but Clive Stephens was the only one who was able to come out that day and help me. I'm not in his usual service area, but when I told him a previous customer recommended him, and the plumber he referred me to couldn't fit me in for 5 days, he was able to come out that evening. He found the leak (a cracked toilet tank) and isolated it so I could have water in the rest of the house. Mr. Stephens was courteous and professional. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs plumbing services. We made arrangements for him to return and replace the toilet as well the garbage disposal in my kitchen that was not working. Unfortunately, he suffers from cat allergies and will not be able to return. "
"I had never heard of product before program. Installation went well. It seemed thorough and quick. Efficiency of product will tell in time. I would use this company again if product works as stated."
"I bought the new one myself, but it’s not always easy to install, and the guy was here to fix the upstairs bathroom drain needed to be fixed, so I had him do it. I get what I pay for, and they did a good job."
"It went very well. There was a very quick response to my deal purchase. I really did not know what to expect since I had not purchased one of the deals before so I was pleasantly surprised by the quick scheduling and the overall response and workmanship. Actually the installer had to return today on the 7th for a quick update and he and his partner were very kind and quick to help. This company and the owner are very committed to making the customer and their needs first priority. Very easy to work with, and that is very important these day. I highly recommend Dublin Plumbing and I would call them again for other plumbing needs. Give them a call. They can help. "
"The process took much longer than expected, but that was in part due to Mark getting sick for an extended time. My one complaint would be the lack of communication especially during the sub-contractor work, but happy with the overall finished product and the price. Thanks Mark"
Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts
The most common garbage disposal size in the U.S. is 1/2 horsepower. This size is ideal for households with three or fewer people or those that don't produce much food waste. Although 1/2 horsepower can't handle the typical food waste load for a household of four (which is about 250 pounds of food waste annually) as effectively as 3/4 horsepower, it remains the most common size of garbage disposal on the market.
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.
No, you do not need a garbage disposal to have a dishwasher. A dishwasher will work without one, and while it's rare to see a home with a dishwasher that doesn't have a disposal, it is possible. The two appliances pair well and are often installed together because a disposal simplifies meal cleanup.
However, your dishwasher should not be used as a replacement for a garbage disposal. Subjecting it to continuous food leftovers can lead to major clogs. If you choose not to install a garbage disposal, you should thoroughly rinse your plates or scrape excess food into the trash or a compost pile before loading them into the dishwasher to prevent plumbing issues.
As with many appliances, proper maintenance is key to maximizing your garbage disposal’s life span. If everyone in your household is on board with proper care and maintenance, like running water while operating the disposal, you should get plenty of years out of your unit. Avoid putting the wrong food items down the disposal, including pasta, rice, bread, and more.
When a dishwasher discharges its wastewater, it uses a pump to quickly move a lot of water. If anything in the drain line or the garbage disposal impedes the high volume of water, it will back up into the sink through the drain or the garbage disposal. Following regular dishwasher maintenance tips like clearing clogs, keeping them cleared, and occasionally running the disposal will eliminate the problem.
