"I will definitely be using Clear Water Solution again!! I had called a popular plumbing company in area and not only was I ignored, I was quoted huge bill. CWS showed up, listened and fixed for a fraction of the cost. I also inquired about installing a new water softener in the future. Again, a fraction of other company. Obviously the bill is important but he was knowledgeable, friendly and fast. Highly recommend."

"We we were completely satisfied with our experience at Advanced Granite — from the time we walked through the door and met Shelby until our installation was complete. We purchased a remnant piece of granite for a new vanity we had installed in our guest bathroom - a small project to say the least. Everyone at Advanced Granite treated us like we were their best customer. Great quality product and work."

"Everything went great, we have been using Ryan for 3 years now for any of plumbing needs. We have used him for little projects such as installing a new water heater to big projects like installing a new shower and putting in kitchen countertops and a new kitchen sink. My wife and I have always been impressed with his work, and how fair the pricing for the work was. I would 100% recommend R.C. Plumbing."

"My husband and I have hired Mark Snyder and his crew at Handy Helpers for many projects big and small over the last 7 years, since we bought our first home and again now in our second one. We hired Handy Helpers for our kitchen renovation (in our first home) and loved the results. The cabinets, fixtures and hardware were installed absolutely perfectly (meaning the cabinets were so perfectly aligned that the install guys from a separate granite company were shocked at how easy it was to place the counter tops) and the finished kitchen was beautiful. I'm sure it was the reason we sold that home so quickly when it came time to move! The whole project was done in a timely manner and they even went out of their way to find a few pieces of trim to match what was already installed along the floor to save us from having to replace it all. We have also hired Handy Helpers for various other projects including help getting our new lawn into shape and painting in our new house. Handy Helpers offers a great value - general home repairs and renovation projects done correctly, knowledgeably and at a very reasonable cost. We definitely plan to continue hiring them in the coming years!"

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

If you cook a lot or have a larger household, a garbage disposal can be worth it, since it streamlines your kitchen duties and helps to keep food waste out of landfills. It helps to know the cost of garbage disposal installation before you make your decision. The average price is about $400, but you can expect to pay more for higher-end models or if you hire a pro to do the job for you.

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.

Whether it's worth repairing your garbage disposal depends on its age and the specific problem. Generally, if the unit is eight years old or younger, repair is a good option. For minor issues like a bad seal or a simple jam, a repair can be inexpensive, sometimes under $10. However, if the motor is broken (a repair that can cost $150 or more) or the unit is getting old, it's often more cost-effective to replace the entire disposal.
