"Greg did an amazing job installing new laminate floors for me after I had some water damage. He is very reasonably priced (the most reasonable out of the three quotes I received) and definitely works hard to go above and beyond! The process went smoothly - he arrived early, got done in the time he said he would, and updated me almost everyday on the progress (he was very patient with all of my questions and concerns). I will absolutely hire Greg in the future for any other work I need and I highly recommend him to anyone else."

"We experienced an emergency with our hot water heater, which had stopped working due to its age. Living Water Drain and Plumbing responded immediately and arrived just as fast. All the necessary materials were on-site within just a few hours, and by the evening, we had a new hot water heater installed and operational the same day. The pricing was honest and fair, and Chris, the plumber was exceptional. He takes great pride in his work and is committed to delivering quality service, which is a rare trait these days. I would highly suggest using Living Water Drain and Plumbing.�"

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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. 

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.

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.

Garbage disposals are durable appliances that usually last at least eight years as long as you clean and maintain them. It’s relatively rare for a garbage disposal to break on its own, as most malfunctions happen due to user errors, like overstuffing the grinding compartment or damaging the blades by trying to dispose of metal or bone. Eventually, cracks or leaks could develop in the unit, which requires a full replacement. 

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.
