"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."

"The plumber who came out was professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. He took the time to explain what the issue was with my plumbing and gave me a few options for how to fix it. The work was completed efficiently, and the area was left clean. The pricing was fair, and there were no hidden fees. I highly recommend PHD Plumbing for anyone needing reliable and quality plumbing services."

"I called Alex at 24/7 Handyman to provide me with a quote for a master bathroom remodel.  We live in a development that was built in the late 70s and all the master bathrooms are tight (about 6' x 9').  We bought our house two years ago and the master bath hadn't been updated since it was built (yellow vanity top, yellow toilet, horrific wallpaper, etc.).  Before even coming out to provide an estimate Alex asked me several general questions about our bathroom and what our expectations were for the remodel.  I was very impressed with his attention to detail and professionalism on the phone and looked forward to meeting him in person.  The first visit Alex came out by himself and took all the measurements of the bathroom and presented us with several options for the remodel.  He explained that he would need approximately 2 weeks to complete the work, but he wanted to check with his head contractor to be sure.  He worked up a quote to not only completely gut the bathroom, but he also gave us a quote on a bathroom expansion.  Alex came back about a week later with his contractor Robert and he took a look at the surrounding wall structure and told us the expansion did not involve any load bearing walls.  He also went into our attic to find a direct route to install a ventilation fan in the bathroom.  I was equally impressed with Robert as I was when I met Alex; both men were incredibly professional and took us step by step through the whole project.  The quote for the expansion came in at just over $8,000.  Every aspect of the project was itemized on the quote so we could see exactly what work was going to be done and what each step would cost.  Alex provides all the materials and provides an allowance to you in the quote (example would be tile, toilet, vanity).  He clearly lets you know that his allowance figures are averages and that customers have gone very high end for fixtures and some stayed more with stock items.  In the end we put the project on hold due to other financial priorities, but I will absolutely give Alex a call back once this project makes its way back to the top of our list."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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.

Garbage disposals can be considered bad for the environment due to their electricity usage, but good for the environment because they reduce the food waste sent to landfills. If everyone used a garbage disposal, it would tax the wastewater treatment facilities in that region, but if we had to choose one of the options, we’d say they are a net positive on the environment when used correctly. 

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.

Replacing a garbage disposal costs anywhere from $150 to $950, but the average cost is somewhere around $550. There are two types of garbage disposal units, and continuous feed disposals tend to cost more than batch feed disposals. Going for an aluminum garbage disposal is also significantly cheaper than choosing a stainless steel garbage disposal. You'll also need to factor in the horsepower of the motor, labor, and the removal and disposal of your old unit.

On average, a garbage disposal can last anywhere from 7 to 12 years, with many models functioning well for about 10 years. With heavy usage, a motor may last a minimum of five years, while grinding plates will wear down over time. It's generally a good idea to consider a replacement if your unit is approaching the 10-year mark. Other signs that it's time for a new disposal include frequent leaks, persistent clogs, lingering odors, lack of power, or unusual noises. If your unit is not that old, it's worth investigating if a less expensive part, like a rubber seal or a loose hose, is causing the issue.
