"We noticed a leak around the garbage disposal unit, and of course this happened on a Sunday. Bruce was able to come check it out same day. He clearly explained what the issue was, and it was quickly fixed. The fee was less than expected, especially for a weekend call. Satisfied customer."

"I like the water filter they gave me. I can get the water straight from the tap. They gave me a free installation because I am an Angie's List member. All the salt is removed from my water. They told me if I referred anyone to them they would give me $500 credit. My skin feels better and all my food and coffee I make with my water taste better. Installing a salt filter is not as good because you end up loosing 300 gallons of water a month. One time I called to tell them my filter was leaking and they found everything was running and they didn't charge me."

"Caesar and Vincent came out, on time, and quickly and efficiently installed the faucets and plumbing. These men were knowledgeable, courteous and went out of their way to make sure everything was taken care of. A few days later I needed additional work done and didn't hesitate to contact them again. Adrian quickly returned my call and had the guys out the very next morning. I can't praise them enough. They may not be the cheapest but you get everything and more than you paid for."

"Their contract plumbing installer created a disastrous situation which resulted in a full scale response by their in-house employees; who fully rectified the problem. The company president visited during the correcting process to be sure all was well and that we were completely satisfied. Our ongoing relationship -service and supplies- has been amiable and professional. We fully recommend Sweetwater Home Services."

"Impressed with Eric & Adrian from the start. Since this was their 1st visit, we took a little time at the beginning to explain what we expected and pinpointed the 25+ sprinkler heads. Then they were off, both preformed their tasks diligently, in a time-lee manner, and their work was Excellent. We now have the best looking lawn in the neighborhood. Eric explained that they offer a large number of other services, plumbing, tree trimming, house painting, dry wall installation etc. We took them up too check a small plumbing leak we had in the kitchen. Adrian got right on the problem, diagnosed the problem quickly. A part was needed so they offered to purchase part and do the installation on visit next week. They were very customer orientated and took all suggestions with a positive attitude. We were looking for a full time yard maintenance guy, we ended up with two, who were much more valuable because of their other talents."

"Our 6 month old roof started to leak after a rain storm. I called Maddox on a Saturday and he came out within hours to evaluate the issue. He determined the roof was not installed correctly and was in need of repair in a few areas. I decided to remove all to the decking and replace the bad sheets and reshingle. The roof was done in about a week from the initial phone call."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, 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.

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.

Never put glass in the garbage disposal. It can damage your disposal or eject shards of glass out of the disposal and cause injury. If you get broken glass in your garbage disposal, turn it off and cut the power from the breaker, use a tool like pliers or tongs to remove the glass, and use a wet-dry vacuum to remove the remaining glass pieces. If you can’t access the disposal safely, call a garbage disposal repair pro.

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. 

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.
