"Pete replaced water filter under the sink, which provided more space for storage. Excellent job done and he made me aware of and labeled the lines for the shut off valves as well as informed me where to locate the replacement filter model number. Thanks for your service!"

"We were overall happy -- they were right on time and did good work.  The drain has held up fine since they came out to do the work.  There were no issues with scheduling and they were pretty professional."

After diagnosing the water heater he located a replacement went and picked it up and completed the install the same day. Tanner was polite and personable and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone!!"

"I met with Kristi of CG&M. She was very knowledgeable about all the materials. I chose a beautiful quartz countertop, sink, faucet, soap dispenser and air button for a garbage disposal. The template took place on time. The installers were on time. 1 item did not come with the faucet package and Kristi had it hand delivered immediately. My kitchen looks beautiful and I am very pleased."

"Two electricians came out to my house to install, test and complete the install of a Generac generator. Doug and Robert were punctual, professional , knowledgeable and still very personable. The install took a bit because we had to also engage a gas company to install propane tanks. The work was completed and it passed county inspection without any issue. We've used Davis and Green for other electrical needs and won't use anyone else. These folks are dependable, reliable and great to work with."

"2 visits and then a solution. James Martin was very condensending during the visit after I expressed my disappointment in the company arriving at 6pm when I had a 3pm appointment. Also shared I could buy my own parts but then upcharged me for labor to install parts so it would be beneficial to have paid for them to get parts."

Install Garbage Disposal FAQs, answered by experts

If you cook a lot or have a larger household, a garbage disposal can be worth it, since it streamlines your kitchen duties and helps to keep food waste out of landfills. It helps to know the cost of garbage disposal installation before you make your decision. The average price is about $400, but you can expect to pay more for higher-end models or if you hire a pro to do the job for you.

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.

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.

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.

Whether it's worth repairing your garbage disposal depends on its age and the specific problem. Generally, if the unit is eight years old or younger, repair is a good option. For minor issues like a bad seal or a simple jam, a repair can be inexpensive, sometimes under $10. However, if the motor is broken (a repair that can cost $150 or more) or the unit is getting old, it's often more cost-effective to replace the entire disposal.
