"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."

"Tommy is the best! Christmas Day my finished basement had particles of food and water on the carpet! The next morning I called Tommy, not only was he responsive but also sympathetic. He rearranged his schedule and came out that morning. He cleared the clog and also taught be a lot about what shouldn't go down a garbage disposal. I highly recommend him!!"

"It was a very good experience with them. They were able to accommodate our schedule and it was kind of a tricky schedule because we had other contractors that had to work on the same day. They kept me informed the whole time about what was going on. There was a problem with the existing pluming and they were able to take care of it. They finished all the work on the same day. Their price was also great."

"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!

"Two man team. First arrived a bit early to set up, second came a few minutes later. Originally estimated the work would take an hour (camera, jet, camera again), but Ty spent a bit longer making sure the job was done right. Provided clear explanation and recommendations about what to do next. Cleaned up after completing the job. Ty was the only person to enter the residence. He removed his shoes and did not wear a mask. We didn't discuss either of these."

"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."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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. 

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. 

While the drain connection for a garbage disposal is nearly universal and fits standard sink drain holes of 3 1/2 to 4 inches, the size of the disposal unit itself is not. You must have enough space in the cabinet underneath your sink to accommodate the disposal's housing. A larger model may not fit in a compact cabinet or if the existing plumbing is arranged in an unusual way. Before buying a new garbage disposal, measure the available space under your sink. If you are replacing an old unit, it's often easiest to choose a new model of a similar size.

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.

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.
