"I had a problem where a 10x8 foot portion of my roofing shingles blew off of my house, I knew I needed a full roof replacement. Bob's company was just one of those I called for an estimate. He came out right away to look at my job, and he could tell I was very upset about the missing shingles and I was worried about the rain coming in. He had one of his workers come out that Saturday and nail the shingles back on before I even signed a contract with him. That's a man who really cares about people. The roofing job he did for me was done in the winter time. It was cold and nasty but they did a great job and a very good clean up. I've had roofers before in other places who left nails and garbage all over. This company did a great clean up. I highly recommend them."

"They came within 24 hours and were able to get my air conditioning working the same day. They determined that the freon needed to be charged. The person we talked to on the phone and the technician that came out were both professional and helpful. They were clear about the cost and the timing. The only surprise was that they were able to fix it sooner than what they estimated."

"We've used Jaime about 10 times. . . . .we don't feel there is anyone else worth calling in the area, can do it all. Ran new electrical box to wall and installed electric fireplace in our finished basement side. Jaime had to get creative as the wall was discovered to be solid and not regular drywall. But he does it like it's nothing. Thanks again."

"I was having drainage problems with my downspouts on the back of my house not draining correctly. Since I bought a house almost 50 years old I had no idea where the water should come out and why it was backing up. Designs of Akron-Canton came in assessed my problem gave me an idea of what should be done what a great price. The owner Kevan was very professional, and very easy to talk and the quote seemed very reasonable so honestly I just didn’t have the time or patience to keep having people come in, so I just went with them and I’m glad I did. they did a great job and they did the job in a timely manner and best of all they didn’t leave a mess around my house."

"Excellent Service...Ryan and his team came out and gave an estimate within 24 hours of us contacting him and had the new Carrier 120k BTU dual stage furnace and April whole house humidifier installed 3 days later. Communication was great, super competitive pricing, didn't oversell or try to add on long term service contracts. Ryan and crew arrived on time at 7:30am the day of install, completed the work as planned, layed cloths on areas they were waking and clean-up when done. Awesome service and a great price....would recommend to anyone in the area."

"As far as my wife and I are concerned it really did appear that the whole project went without a hitch. The first day was demo day. The job required Matt and his crew to come through our garage, down a hallway and into our bedroom to get to the job. They did all the things necessary to make sure the area was covered and protected from any kind of dirt or damage.. Once they got going there really wasn't a lot of back and forth going for tools and whatnot. Apparently they went back there with most everything they needed shut the door and went to work. When the day was over they cleaned everything up and left. The bathroom was clean, completely usable and ready for the next days installation. Same thing the next day they came in worked all day. And at the end of the day we had our new walk in tub. For us, it really did go that well.. Our condo is built on a slab so the electrical work had to be done through the attic. I went up there to get something after everything was finished and couldn't hardly tell that anybody had even been up there.. I honestly can say that we have no complaints. ACC was here on time, the workers were clean and well mannered. They worked non stop all day, cleaned up afterwards and at the end of the two days we had our new walk-in tub as the only evidence that they had been here. We highly recommend them."

"My main sewer line was backed up. I called several other businesses which all quoted me in within the thousands. Luckily, when called Jimmy Jets they assured me that all I needed was a jetting job which would clear my lines. As a result, this would end up saving me thousands of dollars in the process. They were extremely professional, efficient, and ran their business with integrity. Not often do you see businesses go out of their way to save you money."

Install Garbage Disposal FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

These appliances do unscrew, but you need to disconnect everything properly when you replace your garbage disposal. Make sure you shut the power off to the area first and check that it’s off with a voltage detector. Disconnect the main drain line and P-trap, and then disconnect the dishwasher drain line if you have one connected. You can then unscrew your garbage disposal using a disposal wrench. Just make sure you disconnect the electrical lines before removing your appliance.

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.

If your garbage disposal powers up and you can hear it hum, but the arms inside aren’t moving, the problem might be a stubborn clog, a build-up of grease, or a jam of the impeller plate. To troubleshoot these, ensure your unit is off and disconnected from its power source before checking inside the drain or attempting to manually rotate the impeller arms or plate from the underside of the unit. A hex wrench can help.
