"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."

"The pump on my well quit (of course on a weekend)  I frantically called 4 or 5 plumbers, even one that I considered to be my plumber.  This plumber had handled all my plumbing needs for years but they refused to come out on the weekend or even help me diagnose the problem over the phone.  I then saw an ad for Plumb Magic.  I called the number and spoke to one of the techs (Andy).  Andy told me that he would be out in an hour and sure enough he actually beat the time.  Andy diagnosed the problem and started calling around to see what supply store had what I needed.  Andy found the pump and was able to get it on Sunday..  Andy and the owner (Doc) showed up on Sunday and pulled the pump, and replaced it.  They were awesome!   Very professional, explained what they were doing.  I asked how much the whole process was going to cost and Andy pulled out a book showed it too me along with the price.  I figured okay that is the base price and they will add to that price.  When time came to settleup the price was the same.  I could not beleive it, neighbors told me that they payed up to 10,000 for a weekend repair.  I would reccommend these guys and have for any plumbing need.

"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."

"Tanner was amazing! I called him with a leaking hot water heater on the weekend and he immediately dropped everything and was here within the hour. 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."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

These appliances certainly increase the number of things allowed down the drain, but they’re not foolproof. There are several items you shouldn’t put in your garbage disposal, according to manufacturers and technicians. Don’t put coffee grounds down the drain. The same goes for eggshells, potato peels, hard foods, onion skins, and any dry, expandable food. Most importantly, never put grease or oils down the drain.

Continuous feed garbage disposals are the favorite model for many homeowners for a reason. As opposed to batch feed models, add food scraps to the drain whenever the disposal is running. This variety is also typically less expensive, more convenient, and easier to clean.

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.

There are many maintenance and repair issues that lead to a malfunctioning garbage disposal. Regular clogs place wear and tear on the motors, leading to an eventual shutdown. Electrical issues at the breaker, wall outlet, or disposal itself can fry the unit. The most common cause is simply a worn-down motor. These motors can only handle so much use before powering down for good. 

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.
