"We could not be happier with the Puronics Hydronex iGen Whole home treatment system and Micromax 7000 drinking water system provided by Orbit Water Solutions. Justin, the marketing rep who sold us the system, was very professional and accommodating. Justin took about an hour to demonstrate a series of tests which reflected to quality of our water which had more chlorine and hardness than we expected. If you have concerns for lead, Orbit standard demonstration does test for it so you will need to have a separate test done. After some negotiation, we were able to settle on a deal which got us the system and financing for the next 10 years. Orbit provides annual maintenance services on the machine and there is a lifetime warranty on parts which really assured us we were making an investment to improve our water. The best part about it is that the system travels with you. For a small fee, Orbit will pack the system up and ship it to your next home if you move which was a big selling point for us. Orbit also threw in a subscription to PureSelects soap for the next 10 years which was a nice add-on. PureSelects provides every kind of soap or cleaning product you could ask for so it will be nice not to have to purchase additional soap products in the near future. Within a couple days, the installation team came out to install the system. They arrived on time but the installation took a little bit longer than expected. Turns out our the installed garbage disposal was too large to fit with the RO unit tank under the sink. Orbit was very accommodating though. Orbit purchased a new garbage disposal and installed it free of charge which I bet many companies would not have done. I highly recommend getting the larger of the under sink tanks for the RO unit. Even with the two gallon tank, my family has used up all the water in the tank. A 1 gallon tank would just not have been enough. The water in our house has been incredible since we installed the system a few months ago. We noticed an immediate impact to our skin and hair after using it and our drinking water certainly tastes better. Best of all, we feel confident in the quality of the water we use throughout the house to keep us safe and our appliances in good condition. We highly recommend the investment in the water treatment systems through Orbit."

"Install action went fine but after the installer left we had problems with water pressure. It turned out that the manufacturer installed tubes in the heater where the water goes in and comes out restricting the flow. The technician found this and once removed we had our water pressure back. Although it took two days to resolve, the technician stayed on top of it and made sure the heater worked to our satisfaction.

"My husband and I wanted work done to update our early 90's master bathroom and a half bathroom. Originally, we had a big name local contractor out to the house for an estimate on what it would cost to renovate these rooms. Not only was that contractor quoting us an outrageous price- we also realized that we wouldn't be able to have much say in the design. I wanted to be able to pick out everything from the vanity to the faucets and tiles...so we passed on the contractor company and found Kenny on Angie's List, and I'm glad we did! My husband and Kenny arranged a time for him to stop by and look at what we wanted him to do and he was prompt in getting back to us and even took his shoes off when he first came by! If you're looking to do the design yourself but just need someone to install it, Kenny is your man! We had a huge 2 sink vanity and ugly linoleum floors and he removed everything pretty quietly and fast. He also takes care of removing and disposing of the old stuff that was demolished. Kenny is neat and keeps his work areas clean when he leaves for the day. Keep in mind that Kenny is pretty much a one man operation (at least with our job)...and that he doesn't have a secretary around the clock returning calls and checking his emails. It could take some time to get a response back but he always kept in touch with us, even if he was unable to make it (which was only 1 time). Life happens and we totally understood that he was unable to make it that day. I can't understand why any of the reviews for Kenny's work have been given a grade any lower than a "B". Maybe the nitpickers should've called the local contractor company that I didn't  hire?! Kenny is a human being, not a huge corporation like Walmart! Some of the poor graded reviews for him on here are ridulous and petty. Along the way we purchased and returned some things from Lowe's and Home Depot and we had no problems returning those items (even with a lost receipt!) If you take in the items you are returning and have them swipe the card that was used to purchase the items they have no problem with returns. Kenny noticed that one of the toilets we purchased from Lowe's came with a broken toilet seat and he set it aside for us to return, we took it back to Lowe's and they gave us a brand new toilet seat. Again, stuff happens! I didn't blame Kenny for us buying a bum toilet! Kenny showed up at exactly 8am every morning just like he said he would and he got along well with our 3 dogs. Since I am somewhat handy around the house, I decided to do the painting in both bathrooms...so along with my decorating skills and Kenny's handyman skills- I ended up with my dream bathrooms! Kenny was super polite every day and I wish I had the option to post the photos of our beautiful bathroom!
Master Bathroom: Installed new tile flooring, removed old vanity and replaced with new vanity, installed custom cut granite countertop to be used as a make-up table, Installed new toilet, Installed glass tile above and along the outside of the shower
Half Bathroom: Installed new tile flooring, removed old vanity and replaced with new vanity, Installed custom glass tile backsplash along the back of the vanity, Installed new toilet.

"Estimator came out quickly, was very personable, and could schedule my install appointment a few weeks later right then and there. When the tech came out he was polite, efficient, and very quick.  Overall I was very happy with the service and would recommend them to others if the price is competitive with another company.

"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."

"Vince gave us a quote in May to install plumbing for a second sink in the bathroom and to install a bathtub. We were on a tight time frame. He came as scheduled to install the second sink plumbing and then returned a couple weeks later to finish the job once we had finished the drywall in the bathroom, as we had scheduled. He installed the bathtub and even put the claw feet on for us as we were unable to do it. What I appreciated most about the service was that Vince came on time, showed up when he was supposed to, called us back promptly, followed up with quotes...all the things contractors are supposed to do, but so few of them actually come through. We will use him again in the future and have already gotten a quote for a dishwasher install."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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. 

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.

No, you do not need a garbage disposal to have a dishwasher. A dishwasher will work without one, and while it's rare to see a home with a dishwasher that doesn't have a disposal, it is possible. The two appliances pair well and are often installed together because a disposal simplifies meal cleanup.

However, your dishwasher should not be used as a replacement for a garbage disposal. Subjecting it to continuous food leftovers can lead to major clogs. If you choose not to install a garbage disposal, you should thoroughly rinse your plates or scrape excess food into the trash or a compost pile before loading them into the dishwasher to prevent plumbing issues.

The two main negatives of garbage disposals are they are a safety hazard in homes with children, and they frequently encounter blockage issues. While they might be annoying to fix and monitor, garbage disposals can significantly lower your trash use and are a great way to dispose of organic waste. While there are negatives, the vast majority of homeowners acknowledge the positives are enough to install a disposal in their home. 

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.
