"It was less than 3 hours from the time I sent my message, to the time the job was finished. I appreciated very much the response time and clear, concise communication. I was given a verbal estimate before the work was begun, and that's what it was when I paid. I would use  Morgan Leak Detection & Drain Cleaning again.

"Great. We selected DT to replace our two builder installed units about 10 years ago and have had them serviced regularly by DT. Today, we called because part of our house was warmer than the rest. Zee from DT came later today and after checking our units and confirming that they were working properly suggested and showed me how to adjust the dampers (in the attic) to reallocate air to the warmer area. Great service and he was explained a lot of aspects. I highly recommend DT Air Conditioning and there was no charge today since they had performed our regular service less than a month ago."

"I took advantage of the great $295 garbage disposal deal which included the disposal unit and all parts and service to install. Mike, the plumber, quickly did a terrific job on both plumbing problems. Also, he was more than happy to share his considerable knowledge about plumbing issues in old houses. But, most of all, DeWolfe's prices seemed very reasonable to this penny-pincher!"

"This was the second time I had them work on my house. First time unclogged kitchen drain and installed new toilet. This time the outdoor faucet was leaking. It's an older home and it appeared to be the original faucet attached inside the brick of the house. They explained what they needed to do to fix it and gave me a fair cost. Plus they told me to download a coupon from their website and gave me a senior discount. Fernando did the work both times and he was friendly and knowledgeable. Very patient with all my questions. They are my go to guys from now on for any future plumbing needs.

"I was extremely pleased with the work from Alb’s Brothers Plumbing. I had a problem with my water heater where I had water leaking from my ceiling. The technician was very knowledgeable, had the correct tools and got there quick. I’m glad that I can rely on a plumbing company who is there for my plumbing needs."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

While the drain connection for a garbage disposal is nearly universal and fits standard sink drain holes of 3 1/2 to 4 inches, the size of the disposal unit itself is not. You must have enough space in the cabinet underneath your sink to accommodate the disposal's housing. A larger model may not fit in a compact cabinet or if the existing plumbing is arranged in an unusual way. Before buying a new garbage disposal, measure the available space under your sink. If you are replacing an old unit, it's often easiest to choose a new model of a similar size.

As with many appliances, proper maintenance is key to maximizing your garbage disposal’s life span. If everyone in your household is on board with proper care and maintenance, like running water while operating the disposal, you should get plenty of years out of your unit. Avoid putting the wrong food items down the disposal, including pasta, rice, bread, and more.

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. 

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.

You may be able to install a garbage disposal on your own, especially if you're handy or have some experience with plumbing. However, if you have any concerns or want to make absolutely sure that the connections are installed correctly, you may be better off hiring a local garbage disposal installer to do the job.
