"Very smooth install. Ed was nice, personable, and timely. He installed the solar lights efficiently and correctly. And they function perfectly. Fee was very reasonable as well. He’s agreed to install similar lights next weekend at our daughter’s home located about 10 minutes away. We’re in the market for a new handyman, so would not hesitate to contact Ed again. Thank you."

"It took a few phone calls to get to speak to Lori (she was at lunch when I was calling), but once I got her on the phone, I was very pleased. She was helpful in explaining how they priced their work and answering my questions, much more so than anyone else I called. She promptly set up an appointment for a time convenient for us. The repair person was on time and did the work promptly. On the first visit he was only able to install the garbage disposal, kitchen faucet, and ice maker, as the other repairs required parts he didn't have with him. They said that they'd call for a follow up appointment once they had pricing for the parts needed. They didn't call back, so I had to call them on Friday of the next week. Lori said that the parts were in and wanted to schedule an appointment. My husband was annoyed that they didn't call with the prices, but I figured we had to have the work done anyway. It would have been nice if they had called me, though, instead of my having to follow up with them. A different plumber came for the second appointment. He was early, which was nice. Unfortunately, as he wasn't the one who did the initial assessment, he had to leave to get different parts than what he was told to bring. That was a bit annoying because I ended up paying for the time he spent driving back and forth, when I thought he should've come with everything he needed. In the end, everyone we dealt with was courteous, pleasant and the plumbers did great work. I would definitely use this company again. Lori was very responsive to my questions, and flexible with appointment scheduling. She even corrected a billing error before processing my credit card (saving me from being overcharged)."

"Joe answered the phone on a Sunday afternoon and set the appointment for the next day.  He was punctual and went straight to work.  The replacement of the faucet, garbage disposal and sink went well without any hiccups.  He also found a link in the main drain and  repaired it.  We purchased a "big deal" and he completed the work in the time within the time frame.  We would definitely use Joe again for our plumbing needs!

"It was great. He was early! - with warning. Friendly and professional. He reset the garbage disposal with an allen wrench - he even gave me one! He said it was a lower level model and said I should think about replacing but with no pressure. He gave me an estimate if I decided to replace in the future."

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. 

Garbage disposals can be considered bad for the environment due to their electricity usage, but good for the environment because they reduce the food waste sent to landfills. If everyone used a garbage disposal, it would tax the wastewater treatment facilities in that region, but if we had to choose one of the options, we’d say they are a net positive on the environment when used correctly. 

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.

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.

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.
