"When we originally contacted Cliff Morgan, I had to leave a voice mail.  He called me back within a couple of hours, and agreed to come take a look at the leak in addition to providing a free estimate.  He arrived on time and was very professional.  After listening to various water sources (sinks, shower, outdoor spigot, etc), he believed the leak was between the sink and the shower in one of the bathrooms.  He gave me a couple of leak scenarios and the associated repairs that would be done along with a best case estimate and a worst case estimate (noting that the cost could exceed the worst case if there was something that could not be foreseen with the repair).  He was available to do the work the next day, so we agreed. 
He called the next morning to let me know he was on his way and arrived on time.  He spent time methodically testing the water lines to pin point the offending pipe.  As he originally thought, the leak was on the cold side between the sink and shower in one of the bathrooms.  The repair was effective and efficient and he explained everything that he was doing.  The pieces cut out of the walls were small and neatly done.
Best of all, the total bill was actually *less* than the best case scenario quote, which was great news.
While we hope we never see him again (we don't need any more slab leaks!), we would not hesitate to contact him again.  Additionally, we'd highly recommend him.to anyone that needs his services.  If all contractors were like Cliff, home repair/update projects would be *far* less frustrating!

"Installation was great. The service guys were excellent. The salesperson left out a few important details such as the discounts we were able to eventually get and the communication between the service guys and the salesperson was lacking."

"Youngs called 20 minutes before the scheduled appointment to let me know the technician was on his way. He arrived on time, was courteous and unclogged the kitchen drain line within minutes. This company is contacted with my home warranty service so I cannot comment on their actual price for service, but well worth my $75 fee.

"They did a great job! It went faster than I expected. I asked one of the guys if he had time, would he check a leak under my kitchen sink. He was very thorough. It turns out that we had a bolt still attached underneath the sink from a previous water filter installation. We needed a different type of bolt and he switched the bolts for free! He even gave me some much needed advice to help prevent further leaks from the faucet area. I really appreciated the extra mile! I am very pleased with Lone Star Water Services and would gladly recommend them to others."

"I had a different company out to diagnose a problem with the
rain sensor on my irrigation system.
That company?s technician found the sensor bypass switch on
the control panel on.
He told me that was the reason the sensor was not working
and apparently stopped his diagnosis there.
That next weekend I found that the sensor was indeed not
working and that was probably the reason the bypass switch was on.
I decided to try to replace the sensor myself and bought a
new sensor at Home Depot. (The Home Depot sensor was only $40.00 and the other
company was going to charge well over $200.00 to replace it.)
While I was attempting to install the new sensor I
accidentally touched the power terminals with the sensor wires, which caused a
spark.
The control panel went blank.
I initially had thought that the problem might have been a
circuit breaker or GFCI.
After checking the breaker box and all the GFCIs I could
find I was pretty sure it was the transformer in the control panel. (The
voltage in the panel is 24 volts and since it was wired directly into the 110
volt breaker box I knew there must be some sort of transformer in the control
panel.)
The control panel is mounted outside and is wired directly
into the circuit breaker box. I knew I had no business attempting to replace
the control panel.
I called H20 Sprinkler Systems on Monday.
They told me they could be out on Wednesday morning or
possibly Tuesday afternoon.
I told them we had family coming Tuesday afternoon so
Wednesday morning would actually be better.
The technician arrived a few minutes before his scheduled
arrival time of 8:00 AM.
He quickly told me that the controller had been ?fried? (my
term.)
He was able to install a new controller.
As he was about to connect the rain sensor (which I had just
bought at Home Depot) he warned me that those models are sometimes problematic.
Since I thought I would be able to return the sensor to Home
Depot, I had him go ahead and install a better sensor.
His sensor was $189.00 so it was quite a bit more than the
Home Depot model, but almost $100.00 less than the model offered by the other
company.
To be honest, I always wonder when someone suggests an
upgrade if they are totally honest or just pushing for more sales.
The installation took less than an hour and the total bill
was $478.00 ($200.00 for controller, $179.00 for sensor, and $89.00 for one
hour of labor and service call.)

"The process was quick and easy, but I was expecting less mess. I was assured everything was getting sucked into a bin in their truck, but black ick blew out of every vent during the process. We had just painted and thank goodness, had not had the new carpets installed yet, but it was a big mess. The guys cleaned up as best as they could and they were both really professional and kind, but it was messier than I expected. I will be doing this every 3 years, as the guys recommended and the house feels and smells so much better. Totally worth it. Just be prepared and cover everything like you are having painters!

"On the shower, They made it easy on me and did a great job. Owner is great to work with. On air conditioning, I had 4 other companies come out to look at my unit that was running constantly and not cooling well. They charged me for wrong issues and didn’t fix it. Mr Callahan immediately figured out that the company that installed the new unit put in a valve backwards. I highly recommend them for air conditioning work. I will use them from now on."

"It was great! Lonnie came out within 24 hours and assessed my problem and had a new water heater installed in 36 hours from when I called him. Great to work with and no pushy salesmanship, a state licensed plumber and the professionalism to go with it!"

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Most garbage disposals have a reset button that can be triggered with a tool as simple and accessible as your index finger. That said, if you need to perform a more in-depth troubleshooting step, like manually moving the arms inside the unit or rotating the impeller plate, a hex wrench is the most common tool you’ll need. Most garbage disposals come with a hex wrench.

On average, it takes one to four hours for a professional to install a garbage disposal. This includes removing the old unit, taking necessary measurements for positioning, removing and fitting new pipes, and installing the brand-new disposal system. If there are unforeseen issues, such as accessibility concerns, the process takes longer.

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.
