"My experience started out great, from the first call to the evaluation. I was able to get an appointment within the same week. Even called back to let me know an opening had become available. During the evaluation I felt AAA Basement was being honest with me about what was needed. No Services were needed, but I was a list of things to work on to prevent mold from developing. The list was explained thoroughly and discussed the need for a Dehumidifier. We have since put in the dehumidifier and things are going great.

".The old water heater (electric) was  erratic in heating the water (sometimes it would be hot and only warm after several hours being idle)  I assumed that the thermostats needed to be replaced. After Matt arrived and determined that the water heater was more than 15 years old,  he suggested that it be replaced with a new one that would be more efficient. Because  it's age had already exceeded the average life expectancy of electric water heaters, he stated that it might be a waste of money if the unit failed soon after replacing the thermostats.
The plumbers changed out the water heaters and did a good job of cleaning up after the installation had been completed. There were no surprises in the cost quoted before the work was started and the quality of work was what I had expected.
I selected Matt to do the job after running into him where we both did business and I learned that he was on Angies' list. I reviewed the evaluations reported to Angies' list by previous customers who used Matt and made the decision to use his company.

Install Garbage Disposal FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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. 

Your garbage disposal will only affect the health of your septic tank if you’re using it too frequently, or filling it with organic waste that doesn’t fully break down. If the tank fills up with too many solids, the bacteria won’t have enough time to consume it before more is added, which can lead to an overflow in the drain field. Your tank will need to be pumped more frequently with excessive or improper garbage disposal use.

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.

It’s one thing that helps, alongside vinegar and baking soda. Ice acts as an exfoliant, helping to lift off any bits of food stuck on the disposal blades.
