"We have hired many landscapers through the years. We have not had anyone compare to Mantz's Landscaping. I called for an estimate on Friday and Bruce Mantz came out on Saturday. He text us an estimate on Monday. He was proffesional and very kind. He really listened to our needs and gave us lots of good ideas. He was prompt in starting. He was on the job every day to make sure we were happy and to check on his crew. Speaking of crew, they were wonderful! They were also very professional and kind. We were so pleased with the final project that we had them do two more large areas around our pool. Bruce is a true artist! I had a difficult time visualizing what we needed. Bruce asked if we would trust him. Oh, my!!! Everything far exceeded what we could have ever imagined. I love rocks in landscaping and Bruce really heard that. We now have a bed of rocks formed to look like a waterfall going into the pool area. The entire area is perfect. Bruce is amazing! We have absolutely no complaints. He treats you like a good friend."

"Miller and his colleagues were able to do a lot of things quickly. Along with everything else, they also grabbed some old furniture that I needed help moving to the curb. They took several cares to make sure nothing was damaged during the move, including wrapping the furniture, turning off all the lights, and packaging the picture frames."

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

Continuous feed garbage disposals are the favorite model for many homeowners for a reason. As opposed to batch feed models, add food scraps to the drain whenever the disposal is running. This variety is also typically less expensive, more convenient, and easier to clean.

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 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.

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.

The two main negatives of garbage disposals are they are a safety hazard in homes with children, and they frequently encounter blockage issues. While they might be annoying to fix and monitor, garbage disposals can significantly lower your trash use and are a great way to dispose of organic waste. While there are negatives, the vast majority of homeowners acknowledge the positives are enough to install a disposal in their home.
