"We are in the midst of cleaning up our rental house (after the worst-ever renters), and we found a large area of mildew under the vinyl beside the bathtub. Servant Plumbing has been great in the past, professional, prompt, and friendly, so we called them again.
 Louie runs a top-notch business. 
Jay Stephens came out and diagnosed the problem.  He went under the house and took pictures, so we could see exactly what was happening.  We had a leak in the bathtub drain, which had rusted out the bottom of the old cast iron tub and caused sub-floor damage.  He gave us a written estimate and set a date to do the work.  He predicted it would take two days to complete. 
Yesterday, Jay showed up on time with everything he needed.  He was just great - cannot say enough good things about this young man!  He went out of his way to make us happy.  He emptied everything out of the bathroom, including the sink and toilet; he explained that breaking up those old tubs can be messy, and he didn't want anything to fly off and break another fixture.
I must add that Louie called last night, just to make sure everything was going as expected.
So in taking up the vinyl, we got a good look at the sub floor, and it was apparent that the area around the toilet also needed replacing.  Jay took excellent care of it. He added a new flange and is also going to return after the vinyl is installed to replace the toilet - with new wax ring (we don't need the toilet now, since the house is unoccupied).
Cannot say enough good things about Jay.  He is so nice and knowledgeable ... and completely helpful.  He really has made a tough situation a little easier.  As Louie said, no one could have been better qualified to deal with our sub-floor issues, and he could not have been nicer or more accommodating. Amazing level of service!  We plan to always use Servant for our plumbing and will request Jay at every opportunity, and we want to award Jay the Angies Angel.  Anyone would be in good hands with Servant Plumbing and especially with Jay.

"Josh helped me troubleshoot and repair various electrical circuits in my home and removed the debris from my garbage disposal, which was causing it to seize and trip the internal circuit breaker. He is very knowledgeable in all aspects of the home and his customer service skills are superb. All in all he was a joy to be around and helped me with all of my issues. I highly recommend him for service if you are in need of a genuine “handy man”"

"Contractor did a wonderful job. The holdups were due to the permitting process of Town of James Island and County of Charleston along with cabinet (Diamond ordered through Lowes - our decision) and counter top (again through Lowes) problems and setbacks."

"Bob was prompt, knowledgeable, and fair. He worked on my old dryer and got it up and running at a reasonable price. We had a problem two days later with the dryer unrelated to the problem he fixed. I contacted him, and he came back and did a minor repair for no charge. Will definitely be using A Better Choice again."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

In some cases, it’s more cost-effective in the long run to replace a garbage disposal, but it depends on the specific issue you’re having and the age of your disposal. You should ask a garbage disposal repair tech for a quote to repair your appliance and then see if it would be more worthwhile to replace it. Additionally, garbage disposals last for around 15 years, so if you know your appliance is reaching that age, it’s likely better to pay for a new garbage disposal rather than sink money into repairs.

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 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.

While unplugging your garbage disposal and plugging it back in may help, most units have an actual reset button, a bright red switch found on the underside of your unit. If your garbage disposal needs resetting, you may notice this button sticking out about a quarter of an inch from the surface of the unit, with which it’s usually flush. Simply depress this reset button to reset the unit, and then test to ensure it’s working about 10 minutes later.

The main issue with garbage disposals is clogging. This can mean a clogging of the pipes that expel the food along with water, or a clogging of the mechanical parts themselves. The problem lies in the solution because you can’t easily see clogs if they’re inside the system, and reaching in to dislodge stuck items is a risky proposal. Call a pro and ask what they would do, but if you can’t see the clog easily, and running the unit won’t free it, you need to let a professional handle the fix.
