"You will see in the picture that the tub faucets aren't level , the caulk didn't dry and it's still mushy and gross looking , switch on wall has a bunch of cardboard not sure why but looks like a fire hazard .the sink isn't level , he put clear caulk on the sink so when I painted the wall you can see the dark drywall . Major **** up. He told me he cut the carpet from under the toilet but NO he didn't. Around the switch plate the dry wall was ruined. I paid for drywall to be up but her never put up drywall tape or plaster . I was in a hurry because I needed to get to an appointment so I signed the without fully inspecting it . Sure wish I did . They more or less robbed this old couple of $16,000 .oh and the guy was pressuring us to let him stay longer to do more work . 10:00 pm I made him go . Instead of 1 day guarantee to finish he finishe so he says , on the second day . It still isn't complete. We got screwed. Oh . The sink is bigger than I wanted . "

Garbage Disposal Repair questions, answered by experts

While the part of the garbage disposal that attaches to the sink is universal, not every single disposal will work in every sink cabinet. A larger disposal may be too big to fit in a compact space, for example. If the pipes under your sink are arranged in an unusual way, it may be difficult to put in a bigger disposal, even if there technically is enough space.

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.

Soil is just one of the items you shouldn't put down a garbage disposal. Garbage disposals are only meant for soft, non-fibrous foods. Large amounts of topsoil, dirt, or rocks will damage the blades of your garbage disposal or clog the pipes. If a small amount of dirt goes down the drain as you repot a plant, you shouldn't have to worry, but never dump a whole pot of soil in the sink for fast disposal.

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.

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.
