"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

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.

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.

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.

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. 

Once you have your garbage disposal disconnected, you can remove the mounting bracket by unscrewing the bolts that are holding the bracket. You can back them out just enough to pop off the snap ring, which prevents the bottom portion of the bracket from disconnecting from the top when you unscrew the bolts. Use a regular screwdriver to pop off the snap ring, and the rest of the components should fall off by themselves.
